Boy, no preference here, in that I'm really a noodle novice. I will say though, that having been born and raised in Minnesota, we grew up on spam, (cooked, cubed, fried, baked, in a hot dish, in a cold salad or cold sandwich etc) ,and we all swore that the day we left the house was the last day we would ever eat spam! So far I think all of us have avoided it!
