Glad you found that perfect bread for the spam..Reads like a delicious sandwich..I like rye bread that has the caraway seeds in it..I do like that flavor.Thanks for the Thanksgiving Holiday wish..We are to go to our daughter Phyllis' home for the day..Doris and I will take desserts..Cody is trapped out in Texas waiting for the trucking company to tell them where to go next..Sara
