I'm concerned about the relationships between the desirability of the bespoke seals as they relate to the appeal of the meats themselves. While yea, bacon is nearly universal in its appeal, that one seems on the mark. Alas, bologna as the seal of disapproval might fall a bit short. While one might jump to proffer spam in its place, Hawai'ians quite like spam, leaving us all in a bit of a quandry. Olive loaf, perhaps? And while salame is a most excellent meat, perhaps fois gras more aptly conveys the aboutness of not giving a damn about one's approval or lack thereof. What say you cataloguing mafia? Surely we must honour the aboutness of meat and approval lest we needs OCLC to intervene more often than is strictly necessary in our mortal affairs. Ox tongue in cheek, Brooke
