Twill be the perfect foil for the almost famous piggy dippers as opposed to piggy diapers (yechh), the organic 100% house made Asian Plum Sauce (spicy).  Spam.  Heart stoppin heaven in a can.  Also popular in Japan, where it may become a sushi phenomenon.

Historical reference here: http://tinyurl.com/jp-spam Pictures on the side of the can for the Hawai'ian delicacy.  Thanks to Sus for taking the first step 442d RCT (Nisei).

Our own "Joe" has made Spam sushi several times, most recently that I remember, last year at Rio Vista. If he will join us again, perhaps Friday night could evolve/devolve into the Wonders of Spam night? Spam sushi, piggy dippers, green eggs and Spam, etc… Or maybe that is another campout.

Twill?  shudda been 'Twill.  Twill is far too fibrous and chews not nicely.  Glad I found that key.  Could have messed up the whole shebang.  (reference to pistoleras).

Piggy dippers are not to be confused with the Pig Dipper seen on the Walt Disney World site http://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/pig-dipper-at-lunching-pad.54028/

Now if those of us who relish the canned wonderfulness care to tote a can, we have power for a rice cooker and Nori can be brought along to Re-Musubi-ize the remote village of Rio Vista, and update the quaint ribereno culture with the second coming of Unca Joe's Musubi.  Everybody should have some emergency rations on board their conveyance when traveling in the wilds of the central California desert.  SPAM  (tm) fills the bill of even the most discerning seagull should an emergency arise.   So tote the can, squirreled away, just in case.  For those veganites among us, the same recipe can be made using carrots, although the gourmand effect is not the same.

Never allow the geezer to over caffeinate using the AeroPress (tm) and Peets French Roast.  >>>

Pig dipper (pork shank) can be a base for celebrated chili.

Esquire thinks so.http://www.esquire.com/features/guy-food/pork-shank-chili-recipe-ll...
