No military “sausage patty” ration packs could be found online, nothing. He bought this since it seemed interesting, and boom, the second he saw it come out of the can he realized that those ration packs were just sliced maple spam.

The maple one really seems like it's practically destined to be a replacement for sausage links in your classic American breakfast.

Mix the crispy spam cubes with the caramelized cabbage, fill the pies, top with a dough sheet, crimp it, cut some slits in the top, put some egg wash on then, and bake your pies until golden brown and delicious.
