My wife bought a bunch of that snacky, "gifty" stuff you generally buy in the baskets and tins; cheese, cracker spreads, that sort of thing, but this stuff was just individually priced, and loose in a bin; from broken cases and such, I'd assume. She'd intended to assemble all this into baskets of her own making and design, which she does very well.

One thing she bought was a goodly-sized Hillshire Farms "Summer Sausage", hence the title; well, I managed to finagle this rare delicacy, and have been piecing on it for the last couple days. It consists mainly of fat and salt.

In fact, I'd say it's 55% grease, 40% salt, maybe 3% seasonings and spices, and perhaps 2% vaguely beef-related meat......stuff. Or something.

And that's why it's awesome.
