These days, corned beef is just plain weird. It's full of holes. This
could be caused by injecting water and other substances into the meat or
it could be caused by improper handling i.e., freezing the meat is done
too fast or too slow. Maybe it's caused by some sort of bovine
neuromuscular disease or alien cattle mutilation.

I am not exactly sure why corned beef just isn't in our repertoire.  I
can't say that I have have fond memories of it as a kid. My mother used
to so the corned beef, boiled cabbage and crappy old boiled potatoes
for St.Patrick's Day. I have eaten corned beef a few times but I just do
that Irish delicacy.

I've made corned beef sandwiches using the canned stuff. Here's a
sandwich made with Samoa's favorite canned corned beef: Palm. It's not
bad considering.
