Spam Fritter

[snags]

I have extolled the virtues of the humble Spam Fritter a number of times on this site yet it is clearly evident that the majority of users hate them with a passion.

Consisting of nothing more than ham and pork with a little sugar, salt, water, potato starch and a hint of sodium nitrate to help keep the colour, before being encased in crispy batter, why are they so frowned upon?

Admittedly the chippy ones need to be 'degreased' before consumption but once this has been done, serve with chips and mushy peas, a squirt of Ketchup and Voila!

Is it a Class thing? A North/South thing? A pleb thing?

And why is it the Saveloy does not receive the same level of hatred? Just look at it:

[wiggal]

I must say I have never tried a spam fritter, I do however love saveloys! With chips and minted mushy peas! Om nom nom!

[mccfluff]

i hate both equally, how anyone can put either in their mouth is beyond me.......

[snags]

I'm not too keen on the way a Saveloy 'bursts' in the mouth when bitten in to...

I could never find a Spam Fritter in the chippys 'ooop north' (well The Wirral)...

[NoMercy]

Saveloys are just so wrong !

I love a bit of battered cod and chips :-)

[wiggal]

A god old battered sausage is always a good option too!

I never have fish fro the chippy though as very funny about bones!

[snags]

What about the Pickled Egg? Languishing in a cloudy broth in a jar on the back shelf... poor things ;-(

[ChuckFickens]

Oh spam fritter, not spam filter!

I'll go now then.

[wiggal]

A god old? That would be a good old battered sausage!!

[snags]

I almost posted this in Technology just for you...

[snags]

I've never seen anyone buy one let alone eat one... egg and vinegar just seems wrong...
