Spam and Sausage Gravy

As I threatened in yesterday’s post, today I added a slice of grilled Spam to my mid-afternoon snack of toasted burger bun and pork sausage gravy. (Click image for mouth-watering larger image. Don’t blame me if you drool on your viewing device.)

“How was it?” I hear you asking. Are you kidding? There is fat in the gravy and more fat in the Spam. Both contain cholesterol. I can feel my arteries harden as I sit at my pc. My father would be proud. His doctor told me that he (my father) had the worst case of hardening of the arteries that he (the doctor) had ever seen. Wow.

And the meal contains those healthy saturated fats we hear so much about. Not to mention sodium. I guess what I’m hinting at is: you might want to reconsider eating this meal every day. But I give you permission to eat it on occasion. Unless you’re old, in which case you can eat it every day. It’s good for you. I can’t say that unless it’s true.
