What to Do With Baja Mystery Meat
Anyone who shops in the Baja markets - super, mid-size or small sees the butcher/deli counter and they have these big oblong packages of
bologna/mortadella. The pricing is cheap and cheerful, the product is suspiciously bland looking. What's in that smooth, lacking of texture,
characterless, mostly tasteless, but, generally inoffensive lunch meat?
Some varieties are pavo, i.e., turkey, and the non-pavo contain...no one knows.
Anyway, here is a recipe for a Baja Mystery Meat Sandwich:
12 grain Orowheat Bread (owned by Bimbo)
Mystery Meat sliced 1/4" thick (we like the pavo or maybe it just sounds a little bit safer)
Skippy Extra Chunky Peanut Butter
Strawberry jam
Mayo
Powdered Garlic
Freshly Ground Pepper
Spread the peanut butter on one slice of bread, top it with the strawberry jam
Spread a thin layer of mayo on the other slice of bread, grind pepper to taste.
Place slice(e) of Mystery Meat on top of the mayo/pepper and sprinkle the powdered on the MM.
Combine the two slices and...bon appetit!

I think she left out the last part of the recipe. Throw it away! Methinks she is joking. Or else....?

Just hope her dogs can't read this---it may cause them to consider running away. 
BTW, How is that sick GD doing??

Mortadella is an italian sausage -- bologna is a variant of mortadella.
You see it all over in spain and latin america. The quality depends on manufactrer and ingredients. Some is very good, some is less good.
My preferance is for it fried.

 People eat that stuff? I draw the line at salami and beef hot dogs! We
were kinda poor when the six of us were little, we just did not know it yet. To this day, Spam and Mac & Cheese will make me !! My sisters use to come up to me with fried bologna on Wonder bread w/mayo just
to p me off. That stuff in Mexico is scary

Run dogs run.
Does bring back memories of those fried bologna sandwiches of long ago---had to slit the edges of the bologna to keep it flat.

Bite your tongue. Spam is pork shoulder. All that other stuff is pork noses and worse.
Spam is a delicacy. I love it.
God bless Spam.

I'd be honored.
Do you remember the last time we had a Spam thread here? It turns into a really emotional subject.

Have you seen the new rockin' commercials for Spam? Amusing at best. It's all ground up left-over what ever, with preservatives. I'd rather run the
full gauntlet of Mom's hamburger recipes any day! Ground up, left-over "partes de baca" vs. "parters de cochino".
