John Paczkowski, All Things D

Recently, the company said it was expanding its existing manufacturing operations in the U.S. to meet the needs of certain unnamed customers.

**** Give Spam A Chance ****
<http://www.slate.com/articles/life/food/2013/05/i_love_spam_hawaiians_are_ahead_of_the_curve_in_their_celebration_of_the.single.html>
Anna Weaver, Slate


> Why, America, do we treat Spam like the school outcast who’s just too square for our liking? We’ve been buddy-buddy with hot dogs and pepperoni for ages just because they’re the sporty meats at carnivore college. If more people gave Spam a chance, they’d see that it not only tastes better than hot dogs, it also aligns quite nicely with current foodie trends. They’d also see that it’s an exciting ingredient with boundless culinary potential. (Hint: You’re an idiot if you eat it straight out of the can.)
