While not quite worthy of a protest, I'm a little miffed: Even though SPAMalot, the musical, is opening in Chicago, Hormel Foods is giving ticket holders to the New York show a free can of Honey Grail SPAM (well, the first 100 anyway). Who in your opinion is more likely to eat and create buzz about SPAM - a Chicagoan or a New Yorker?
