What would the Viking Hordes think?
LINCOLN, Neb. - Imagine eating the same food, every meal for 30 straight days.
One Lincoln, Nebraska man has done that for the past month - and we are not talking about burgers or pizza either.
Tyler ate the ham and pork product every day, every meal for the last month.
He promised two of his friends if they finished their book on Spam, he would live on it for a month.
They did, so he is.
Along the way, he has become a Spam connoisseur.
"It has come to the point where I go to the grocery store and walk down the aisle and say, 'Oh, rice would be good with spam.' And then what else goes with rice and spam? It gets tough," said Riewer.
His experimenting in the kitchen also led to an old favorite with a new twist.
"The Spam meatloaf was a surprise for me because, whereas all the other meals have Spam in them, Spam meatloaf is nothing but Spam. So, I was a little nervous to eat it because I have never had Spam plain, and it was awesome," said Riewer.
It is easy eating Spam every day when you are making it in your own kitchen, but what happens when Tyler wants to go out to eat?
Tyler simply took his own.
"I brought the Spam with me and asked them to make my sandwich with Spam and they did and it may have been the best sandwich I ever had there," Riewer said. "It was like my two worlds combined."
Tyler has also brought his Spam with him to two wedding receptions this month.
"One of the brides sent me an email and said, 'Spam was not welcome at my wedding,'" said Riewer. "The day of the wedding I had Spam in my pocket. I had one in my pocket and one hidden in my sock because I figured if anything I could expose the one in my pocket, 'Oh, busted,' and then eat the one from my sock in secrecy."
Despite his constant Spamming, Tyler just may use some of those Spam recipes again.
"I will probably keep some Spam in the cupboard, though. There is a place in my heart for the Spam now," said Riewer.
It is an unlikely culinary love affair between a man and his Spam.

LOLz, I read those trivia facts, I actually find this one quite funny
State Motto: Equality before the law
Whats ironic about that is they threw down the book at *** Rights and Marriage. In Nebraska that motto only applies if you're talking about White Christians.. anyone else, heck no! Did you also know that Nebraska is THE ONLY STATE that does not have a safe haven law? That's the law that legally allows you to drop your baby off in a church or hospital and they will find the child parents/put it in the system no questions asked.

Wow. I guess the baby will be better off if left in an old tree stump or dumpster - as is usually the case, even in states with the safe haven law!

I'm glad you pointed that out to me. I deffinately never would have picked up on that, being from California and all - I'm isolated like that. I know how you all in the Midwest just love us Californians. :D

I'm going to stay out of this topic... I just want to say that Nebraska is my least favorite state... immediately followed by Iowa, because I hate driving down I-80 and looking at one cornfield split by an interstate on my way to Nebraska.

Wow judging a state just based soley on the landscape? Have you even BEEN to Omaha, Nebraska? Oh wait, let me guess, "no because the rest of it was boring?" Omaha, NE has over half a million people just in the city, has one of the worlds largest and finest zoos (I do believe its in the top 5 or 10 in the world), we also host the College World Series for baseball.. oh yeah, but Nebraska sucks, we have cornfields! :rolleyes:
