EPILOGUE

As we all know, the Japanese surrendered after the use of the A-bomb in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. This in turn ended the war, and there was much rejoicing. We, of course, will never know how many Japanese lives were saved by using the bomb instead of the....er...."ham". Also, we don't know how many American soldiers' lives were saved by using the A-bomb instead of a full-fledged invasion.

Five months later, Hormel Foods bought the rights to the eh....er....."ham", and named it SPAM. It came with a large warning label on the back stating that you should wash off all traces of the gelatin and then fry the SPAM just to make sure there is nothing left. (Although, some people couldn't read or were just down right stupid and ate it raw anyway.) Three years later Hormel Foods came up with a preservative just as powerful, but without that poison that blows up your heart.

During W.W.II, millions of cans of SPAM were spread throughout the world to keep our "boys" strong and healthy, not to mention keep a glowing smile on their faces as they ate the "food from the gods". Unfortunately, some troops had been born with an immunity to the great aroma of SPAM and just left their can lying around in the trenches. (This was before the creation of the new preservative, mind you.) Then, some poor, unsuspecting German would pick up the can and sell it to the gullible Polish, who didn't know English, who would then in turn eat the SPAM. Of course, their heart would blow up, but who cares, it was just a Pole.

Nowadays, SPAM can be found in your local grocery market all across the nation, and in some foreign nations, too. Of course, everyone eats SPAMbled egg biscuits and the famous SPAMburger Hamburger!

I'm sorry if this story has brought any physical or mental harm, believe me, it was unintentional. I sincerely hope that no Japanese or Poles were hurt by this story, but that was how they were viewed during the times. Hormel Foods should not worry about this bad publicity, for everyone knows SPAM is the best tasting stuff on earth, and enjoys SPAM on a daily basis.
