Normeat Anyone?


Normeat Anyone
Originally uploaded by karmking1111.
Some "food' out there is spectacularly scary. "Normeat" is downright terrifying--if not for its ingredients, then at least its size. Who buys these things besides apocalypse awaiting basement dwellers or the US army.

I'm a little bit curious who came up the name "Normeat" as well. I can only imagine the discussion between the company execs and the marketing people:
"How can we make this food byproduct seems less intimidating and more, well, you know...normal?"
"How about naming it Normeat. Normal + Meat."
"Why not? It worked for Spam."

(I'm assuming that Spam is Special + Ham)

Ham with pork? Ham with pork? What, pray tell is Ham if not pork?

It's not food, nor is it meat.
