PRIZE DRAWING: Because All Of You Aren’t Willing To Fly Thousands Of Miles To Buy SPAM-Flavored Macadamia Nuts

Marvo Announcement, Prize Drawing

After reading TIB’s review of SPAM-flavored macadamia nuts, some of you were puzzled by the idea of a mystery meat-flavored nut. Some of you were disgusted. And some of you were like, “Hell yeah! I gots to get my hands on that shit!”

If you want some, here’s your opportunity to win some. The Impulsive Buy is giving away a 4.5-ounce can to five lucky readers.

Now some of you might not want SPAM-flavored macadamia nuts, but that shouldn’t stop you from entering because the SPAM coating comes right off under cold water, leaving you with regular macadamia nuts.

To enter this prize drawing, leave a comment with THIS post. Say whatever you like: A haiku about how much you love SPAM, a sonnet about how much you hate SPAM, the letter M or your favorite line in Return of the Jedi (which is probably “It’s a trap!”).

Please don’t forget to fill out the email field because I’ll be emailing the winners for their mailing addresses. The Impulsive Buy will stop accepting entries on Sunday, January 24, 2010 11:59 p.m. Hawaii Standard Time. Only one entry allowed per person and it’s open to everyone who’s 18 years old or older.

Good luck and may the Force be with you!

Fine Print: The Impulsive Buy promises your email address will not be used to send you something with “t2r9u3 hgori 4thej ulfkjsdlf” in the subject line. The Impulsive Buy also promises your mailing address will not be used to send you junk mail that’s addressed to “Current Resident.” Bribes will not be accepted. The Impulsive Buy will not be responsible for lost mail, damaged mail, or Mark McGwire’s inability to get me to believe the steroids were for “health reasons” and nothing more.

  1. Ze reason I have entered zis draw (other than the two obvious reasons of wanting to use a fake French accent, and wanting more things that Marvo has touched — two so far!) iz because I have never tried eizher Macadamia nuts or SPAM, and I’ve always been tempted to try both of them!

    Here’s hoping I can kill two birds with one nutty spam-coated stone.

  3. If we’re going with the traditional haiku format (5-8-5), then this is my best spontaneous Spam haiku

    Spam is protein source
    Mormon Tabernacle Choir Food
    They sing “Till we Meat”

    If you don’t get the joke, I will give you some background. The Mormon Tabernacle Choir sings a song called ‘God Be With You Till We Meet Again” every week at the end of their broadcast, “Music and the Spoken Word”. Since its first broadcast in 1929, the program has run continually for 80 years and has been broadcast over 4,000 times. The unbroken length of broadcasts makes Music and the Spoken Word the oldest continuous nationwide network broadcast in the world.

    I have joked with my family for years that it is their SPAM song…I know it’s old and traditional, but they just won’t get rid of it! So in honor of the MoTab, their Spam song is “Till We Meet/Meat”

  7. I told a coworker about these nuts and he was like that is gross cause Spam is nasty and I don’t want nasty flavor on my nuts. And of course I burst out laughing hysterically.

  10. This seems utterly repulsive, but I am pregnant so ill probably find this sadly delicious…

  13. Oh my lord I love Spam! The worst part is that my boyfriend just got back from Hawaii last month, so if I knew this existed I would have sent him with an extra suitcase to bring me back a few dozen cans.

  15. It is what it is…..Spam and Macs…..LOVE them both. I even bought one of those little single-serving packs of Spam and a roll and made myself a Spamwich while travelling recently. Yummmmm, raw Spam. A few nuts thrown on top might have made it even yummier. What a combo!

  16. You know, I always thought that Spam should sell flavored versions of it’s product. Like Ranch Spam, Taco Spam, Cheezy Spam. Yea. Maybe one day. Until then, I’m glad to see they’re branching out a little. Go Spam!

    scuse me, I have to fall over laughing now. But seriously, I would eat those.

  18. Yo, dog! F’real gots to gets me some o’that, yo! Whut’s betta than Mac Daddy nuts? Spam Mac Daddy nuts, yo! Gimme, gimme.

    I AM willing to fly thousands of miles to buy Spam-flavored Macadamia nuts. I’m just not willing to PAY to fly thousands of miles to buy Spam-flavored Macadamia nuts. There is a difference. So, would you be willing to fly me there or could ya just ship ’em over?

    Thanks for all of the hours of Marvo entertainment, often at your own peril and self-degradation.

  26. When I first saw the photo, I thought it was like Raisin Nut Bran, with Spam inside the nut. I’m not sure if the powder is more or less appetizing…

  28. “You were right. You were right about me… Tell your sister… you were right…”

    Lucas really didn’t improve that dialog did he? =/

  29. i have no job, three children, two wives, no insurance

    no one has had a bite to eat in weeks

    i need these nuts

  33. “Sir we’ve lost our primary deflector shield!”

    “Intensify forward batteries, I don’t want anything getting through.”

    “INTENSIFY FORWARD FIREPOWER!”

    “TOO LATE!”

    *A-Wing crashes into bridge of Super Star Destroyer which subsequently crashes into the side of the Death Star*

  36. Waitress: Shut up! Bloody Vikings! You can’t have egg bacon spam and sausage without the spam.

    Wife: I don’t like spam!

    Man: Sshh, dear, don’t cause a fuss. I’ll have your spam. I love it. I’m having spam spam spam spam spam spam spam beaked beans spam spam spam and spam!

  38. I love meat. I also love nuts.

    And before this comment gets any more unintentionally pornographic, let’s just suffice it to say I’d love to get a shot at a can. (Damn!)

  39. I done ate me some Spam Musubi the other day, and I’d like to have some o’ them spammy nuts now! Gimme!

  40. You should send them to me so I can add them to my next batch of homemade ice cream or make white chocolate spam macadamia nut cookies……or both……or even spam macadamia nut cookie dough ice cream……….genius

  43. s…sodium nitrite (really – really – we need to add color to our fake meat)
    p…popular (spam is that mysterious kid in the back of the class in homeroom)
    a…aspic (that gross yucky stuff kids make fun of in regards to jello – the crap on top of burning the “bones”)
    m…meat (something all girls love to have in their mouth)

  44. Wow to bad they didn’t make the nuts square too hahhaha
    I like spam fried crisp with eggs for breakfast.
    Pam

  45. I was going to leave you a Spam comment, but it looks like some other guy beat me to it in his sob story about chocolate and Iraq, or some such nonsense. If it makes you feel better I can probably give you a good return investment on ocean view property in Milwaukee. I’ve never been there myself, but I’ve heard it’s beautiful and all the proceeds go to helping some worthless guy that, coincidentally I might add, shares a name with me.

    Or you could just send me some Spam-nuts and I’ll go away. 🙂
