So I fried up some thin slices and placed within a soft tortilla and had lunch. It was much better but still rather salty and this supposedly with 1/3 less sodium than Classic Spam.
I could make it work if fried but it won't be eliminating any of my normal food stuffs that I generally take on tour.
I prefer to dice it up and add to soup or a pasta meal. For solo camping I find the small packets quite easy to use,
I do not think I have eaten it any other way for over half a century, but have often added it to soups or pasta.
