Adam: Why do we have so many cans of potted meat in the back of our pantry? Laura: My mother gave us those in case of an emergency. Adam: It says "almost 100% natural". Laura: I don't know whether to salute their honesty of criticize them for it. Adam: And then it says, "contains mechanically separated chicken". I mean, what kind of sick mechanic would spend his time separating chickens?

As I remember the turkey plant we didn’t use heads, feet, or feathers. Things may have changed.

Oh, spam is much more palatable than potted meat! That stuff contains dog food rejects.

A guy in one of my science classes in high school gave a report on SPAM once. I got as far as, “It starts out in the can as a liquid,” and buried my head on my desk and tried not to hear any more.

J.A.D., thanks for answering the question I was too lazy to get up and go to the kitchen and find for myself.
Dr.T., you can leave the computer now. We only want useful “useless” information. “Usefulness” is in the eye of the beholder.

Vawser, I think you’re right about potted meat. And if you read the can, it really says potted meat product. SPAM, on the other hand, as you pointed out, is a high quality product, especially compared to potted meat product.
