Dedicated to ManFlu
I have manflu, I hate being sick. I try not to use the word hate much, but I really do not like being ill. I wonder, will spam help?
It started as a cough that kept me awake on Tuesday night. On Wednesday it progressed and I had a headache and the beginning of some nasal sinus congestion. On Thursday it was much the same but on Thursday afternoon I started feeling worse. I decided on Thursday evening that I would have to stay home from work on Friday. I hate that. I really like work.
So the question remains will spam heal my manflu? This could become a new form of healing. I can’t imagine it could be any worse than naturopathy, acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, herbal medicine, homoeopathy, and ozone therapy. I’ve recently completed a short course in evidence-based medicine. I will need to think about a randomised controlled trial to determine if spam can make any difference to manflu. Just imagine if I find the cure!

So tonight in my weakened state I decided to eat something comforting with the piece of Chicken Maryland I had in the refrigerator.
I’ve already shown just how good vegemite and chicken can me so adding spam must make it better! Am I right?
The chicken was moist and tender and the skin was crisp and cheesy. The bread had a nice crunch and had absorbed the chicken, spam, onion and vegemite flavours. Obviously the coleslaw, avocado and garlic aioli contrasted nicely with the saltiness of the vegemite and spam. I did use salt reduced vegemite but I’ve never used salt reduced spam. I must try it to see what it tastes like.
This made me feel happy. Let’s see if it makes me feel better! Taking an aspiring before cooking dinner probably helped as well.

I’m developing a head cold. The dreaded #ManFlu At lunch time I didn’t even feel like shooting a photograph of the toasted English muffin with congee sandwich.
For breakfast I had spaghetti on an English muffin. I didn’t realise a small tin of spaghetti has almost no saturated fat. A minute on high in the microwave oven and a few minutes for the muffin in the toaster and voila a quick breakfast.
For dinner I struggled to think of something quick and easy. In the end I pulled a beef burger from the freezer. Sure red meat isn’t exactly #LowFat but I cooked it by putting it into my benchtop oven without any oil and just cooked it at 200 °C for 15 minutes. I toasted some linseed and soy bread and made a beef, lettuce and tomato sandwich for tea. I’m particularly pleased with the photograph of the sandwich.
