Hormel Foods recalls SPAM after pieces of metal found in some cans

[TexasTowelie]

(CNN) - Hormel Foods is recalling more than 228,000 pounds of canned pork and chicken products.

The reason? They may be contaminated with pieces of metal.

The US Department of Agriculture says the products in question were produced from Feb. 8 - 10 of this year.

They include 12-ounce metal cans of Hormel "SPAM Classic" with a best-by date of Feb. 20 - 21 and 12-ounce metal cans of "Hormel Foods Black Label Luncheon Loaf," also with a Feb. 20 - 21 best-by date.

At least that's what my parents told me when something unappetizing was served.

15. I'll have to confess that I occasionally pick up a can and make a hash with it.

The last potluck lunch we had at work my Hawaiian born coworker brought in SPAM musubi. It was good

16. I met the Hormel Spam pig buyer a few years ago on a scuba diving tour

She said she had to coordinate the gestation period of pigs among the many contracted pig farmers to guarantee the delivery of 16,000 pigs per day every day of the year to the processing plant to meet the nations need for Spam.
