Greg;
That Cajun was just having fun with you. That was not SPAM and I would not dare tell you what it was. I promised a Cajun I would not reveal the “secret” ingredient or I would suffer a Cajun curse that is frightening to even consider!
I had some Cajun friends and acquaintances while in Mississippi and Louisiana. I am still trying to recover from the red-hot meals I had and that was 38 years ago! I guess I could compare Cajun cooking with Thai. Either one can take the top off my head and the bottom out of my stomach! :)

>I didn't know it at the time, in fact I was told it was turtle, but there is a Cajun dish featuring Spam that is out of this world. Perhaps because it's so hot that you can't really taste anything else. I had it after I wandered "off-road" outside of Baton Rouge one summer........(lots of other stories there)

>>>My dad was in the Marine Corp and "visited" many of the "lovely" South Pacific Islands during WWII, and he ate a lot of Spam. He said he would never eat it again. We did not have a can of the stuff in the house. When I lived alone I ate some - once! What was it? :( No, please do not tell me.
