I fucking love Spam, truth. A guilty pleasure from my military days. Imagine my delight when I did an R&R in Hawaii :)
My buddy from Hawaii loves that crap, not me! But i've def been known to dabble with the box wine;-)
I grew up on cheap wine. My school was right next to the old location of the Almaden vineyards.
We used to beer bong cheap wine in highschool

It's a matter of cost. I drink way too much to be buying fancy shit. And liquor just makes me an asshole so I try to avoid it. Box wine is cheap and gets me drunk without making me a raging dick head.
Happy Jimmy is a better jimmy. .in ur case I understand. .I don't drink. .last time I got drunk was a few yrs ago. .I just find it funny how many women brag about being drunk moms...so many wine glass pics of women in ugly old leggings on my fb feed...lol

Nah just plain ol' mess hall food. But in Hawaii it's an art form. HI was poor prior/during WW2; the war brought zillions of troops and food to feed them. Including Spam which was a godsend to the regular Hawaiian folk; a miraculous new plentiful protein source, conveniently packaged and shelf stable. They went to town on it

Edit: I guess I was kinda like the Hawaiians; grew up in an Italian family so we never had it at home. It was new, novel and meat. Oh baby!

I wouldn't say I love spam, but I certainly don't hate it. I wanted to try something different one day. So I cut it up in large cubes and put it on a skewer with onions, bell peppers, and pineapple. Then I marinated it in teriyaki sauce and threw it on the grill. I also used the left over sauce as a glaze at the end. It was fucking amazing!

Same here, one of the better daily table wines I've found was in a box. Although box wines lack the pomposity, diversity and will never have the cellaring ability of bottled, better quality wines are being brought into the boxed market all the time. Generation X has changed wine packaging by their increased consumption to all our benefit.

I love not having to deal with bottles for my simple table wines although I still do for lack of availability. I look forward to more coming into the market. Cellared is for special occasions. I have a decent sized house at 3,000 sq. ft. and still don't really have room for a wine cellar, who does these days? Boxes (if you know your chemistry), give you a good quality product for a decent price that lasts longer in better condition, VIVA technology.



Very nice fish, I see you are on that leg, how are you feeling? How's it coming along?
It's in a cast but yeah it's coming along.. That's actually why I'm leaning to the right in the picture to try and offload it
