Default Spam and Ramen Noodles Sales On Rise

Pilots have known for generations the nutritional and economic value of these foods.

From Associated Press:

MILWAUKEE - Love it, hate it or laugh at it — at least it's inexpensive.

Sales of Spam — that much maligned meat — are rising as consumers are turning more to lunch meats and other lower-cost foods to extend their already stretched food budgets.

What was once cheeky, silly and the subject of a Monty Python musical, Spam is now back on the table as people turn to the once-snubbed canned meat as costs rise, analysts say.

For those of you old enough to remember… a short documentary on Spam.
