Bacon Grill Luncheon Loaf is a dollar-store SPAM knockoff that is perhaps the worst-tasting homogeneous tinned meat product that I have ever tasted. The photo doesn't really do it justice, because it fails to show its true, vividly pink color/ Popped out of the can as shown, it looks very much like it was made of melted pink crayon topped with transparent Jell-O.
Sliced and fried, it developed a nicely browned crust which is probably the best thing I'm going to say about it. The texture was spongy and unpleasant, and it tasted like the cheapest, most filler-laden bologna you can imagine.
Really horrible. I might eat it again if I were starving. No, literally starving, not just "wicked hungry" starving.
They did it! They finally did it!
ReplyDeleteThey made something that contains bacon actually
unpleasant! I knew this day would come, just not in my lifetime.
Guy at product brainstorming: "I'm thinking Spam, but
Spammier..."
But on a happier note, Jack in the Box has introduced a bacon-flavored milkshake.
ReplyDeleteNo, seriously, they really did.
Stop laughing!
Can't the buyer use the stuff akin to a toy?
ReplyDeleteEasily carved into a variety of shapes.
Clay-like consistency?
Give it to one's vile spawn on a rainy day to keep the little vermin's hands busy.
Hand the critters a long sharp knife and turn them loose to play with their toy.
Encourage creativity.
If the vile creatures turn out to have a whittling/carving talent perhaps their final creative output could be sold on eBay.
Turn what is an otherwise economic liability into an economic asset.
Avoid those intrusive child-labor laws.
Make those noisy brats infesting your hovel into true economic liabilities and of actual use to the family unit.
Guess we have different tastes but I just now finished a 7oz. serving right out of the can with aged Gouda cheese and crackers. I thought it was very tasty. Didn't notice any off-putting artificial flavor ... tasted reasonably like smoked ham though consistency was softer than solid ham but not unpleasant. It seemed every bit as good as name brand "Spam". I liked it significantly better than Vienna sausages, potted meat / deviled ham. I'll confess I was pretty hungry but don't think that swung my opinion. Found this review while looking for a source for more of the product which I previously bought at a forgotten convenience store somewhere. Hope this comment doesn't constitute "spam." Andy
ReplyDeleteYour comment isn't spam, Andy, it's "luncheon loaf." :)
