We have been having this debate around town and I thought I would bring it here for all of us to enjoy. Which Hawaiian treat would you rather eat?

Poi

or Spam?

Personally, I prefer Spam to Poi... I find poi a bit like mashed potatoes with battery acid... Spam is salty, smoky and delicious...
 
Having been stationed in HI for three years, I'd rather drown myself in the Pacific than eat either of them ever again.
 
Knowing that spam will survive a nuclear holocaust, I vote poi.
 
I voted before the pictures loaded. Having seen the poi, there's even LESS doubt in my mind.

Only one word comes to mind when I look at that first picture.

Ewwwww.
 
I've tried the purple paste and it is gross!!!!!

I ate a lot of fried spam as a kid. Got no problem with it, especially on toast with some lettuce and tomato.
 
I have only had spam once in my life that I am aware of - I was maybe 5-6 years old at the time but I distinctly remember the can and my mom cooking it - nothing more than that. I wandered into this thread last week and made the serious mistake of clicking on the video - I cannot get that song out of my head now...which may add a whole new dimension to my feelings about the product...

;)

So of the people who eat spam, who cooks it and who eats it cold?

I do both, but prefer raw (if I ate it often that might change though).

all the food in the world and people actually eat that crap?? Lol spam I can understand to a degree but poi? What the heck is that?? Bleh
 
I love that song. :o

It's on an album that very nearly came to my island.


Oooh, nothing wrong with the song...just that I have spent the last 3-4 days with it in my head is all....it's catchy like that.

I grew up with the Python Spam comedy bit and well, this song is well, catchier...in a permanently seared in my brain sorta sense of "catchy"

;)

My uncle makes diced Spam pizza (quite good) and I have also had Spam and eggs at grandma's a number of times (also, quite good). I have also had it fried (it was so-so)
