Mystery Meat and You

Brookdale Luncheon Meat is a SPAM knockoff available at Aldi. It's only $2 for 12oz or six servings, and probably at a local food shelf if needed.

Pros:
Packed with protein, nearly carb-free. If you prefer foods without complex chemicals, this is a 5 ingredient food, and the only issue is Sodium Nitrate. (I'm fairly sensitive to it, but in moderation it doesn't bother me. Let me know if it gets to you.)

Cons:
It's high in saturated fat, and cholesterol, and the sodium is off the charts.

I use it about once per week. I always slice it quite thin and fry it on a hot skillet until it's crispy. I've tried eating it, well, not crispy, and I wanted to hurl.

I have used it as a cheap substitute for bacon or ham, and it keeps me full, albeit, thirsty because of the sodium.

Do you use this stuff, or something like it?

Are you opposed to it? Should I be opposed to it?

Let me know!
