I posted this in the Lounge and then wondered why. This is a copy/paste
"American food is hard to define and the editors of this cutting edge food rag are doing their best to define it. When considering American cuisine that is lost I thought of the canned Gorton Codfish Cake.
You would open the can on both sides so it would slooooop out of the can and then fry it in a cast iron skillet in butter and eat it crispy on it's own or make a codfish sandwich on toasted english muffins slathered in hellman's mayo.
Alas that little can of gross yet satisfying over processed glop is no longer mass marketed. (yet spam is alive and well?????)
And you?
