Yes... I am absolutely sitting here thinking to myself 'WTH is a pork roll?' And then I cannot get the image of SPAM out of my head.

On a completely unrelated note... Do we need a new thread? We've had 100 pages of physical check ins. Way to go team!

ETA: I looked it up. Sounds a lot like SPAM in a cylindrical form.

Wikipedia had this to offer:
'Larry Olmsted of USA Today has described the taste of the meat as "a cross between Canadian bacon and bacon, less hammy and smoky than Canadian, fattier and saltier than bacon, with a unique texture, both crispy and slightly mushy."
