Spam Museum

Spam Museum

Austin, MN

Reviewed April 15th, 2004

"Clean enough to eat off of" is a cliche that challenges the one who says it, to prove it. Therefore, I'm going to settle for a rhetorical cop out and say that the Spam Museum's bathrooms were ALMOST clean enough to eat off of. It was almost as though the restrooms were just another exhibit, perfectly preserved models of a different time that should be cordoned off rather than used. Stooping to one knee, I stood nearly nose to porcelain with the urinals and my naked eyes revealed not even the fainest hint of a droplet of urine. Oh, by the way, I have 20/20 vision. No smells, no sounds, perfectly reflective mirrors, bright white lights--you might mistake these privvies for an operating room if you're not careful! Ladies too. Cleanliness is always appreciated, but these johns could use a change of vibe that is a little less antiseptic and a little more homey. Dig? Please note that I got through this entire review without one--not even one--derogatory reference or cheap shot at Spam. Impressed yet? Better be!
