Well, yeah. Bread itself is processed. Still better than eating a Banquet frozen meal though.

Only if one is completely incompetent... making bread is very easy although it does required processed ingredient as well.

On the subject of meat, I left my Spam on the counter yesterday. Think it's still good? It's barely meat anyway, and the salt and nitrites probably keep it a long time. Not sure I want to spend the night puking if it's bad, but I don't want to needlessly throw out delicious Spam either. Maybe I'll fry the hell out of it, and hope for the best.

It never was good. Do I think it has spoiled? Unfortunately it most likely has not. You will be safe from gastroenteritis due to all the preservatives. Unless a fly took a dump on it while it was left out. You'll just have a 0.001%* chance higher risk of cancer from nitrates/nitrites.

*I pulled that number out of my anus don't trust it and FFS don't eat it.

What is it with this new trend people have against processed food? Since when is processed automatically always bad for you and all natural is not?

You know what's not processed? All natural? Snake/Jellyfish/Black widow spider/Some South American frog venom. Poison Ivy. You want to eat those things? I'll eat my yummy processed food and like it. Having said that some preservatives and pesticides are bad for you, but processed doesn't necessarily mean it's bad.

FYI... Instant Stuffing mix falls under the category of processed crap.

So what? What does that mean? Why would that be bad?

Stuff green bell peppers with it and bake them.

Processed food has the most amount of calories packed into the smallest space with the least amount of nutritional value.

Are you dead yet? ;)

Still alive. It tasted fine, but I ate a little too much with the bread. I wanted to finish it in one shot, so I ate about half a can that was left. Toasted sourdough, Swiss cheese, and horseradish mustard.

So, for anyone curious, Spam is good at 80F for about 24 hours as long as you cook it. Dunno about eating it cold.

No evil naga sauce needed? That would of killed off anything dodgy.
