Ah! Of course - spam is the cure 🙂 Low carb and nutritious, delicious when grilled and put into a sandwich with lashings of brown sauce 🙂
I met a man who, thrice a week
Ate seven pickled eggs…
Another man I came across
Smeared treacle on his legs!
And yet another squeezed the leaves
Of Himalayan plants,
Then quite obscurely poured the juice
Into his underpants!
When asked what led them to perform
These strange and worrying acts,
They paused, and with a knowing wink
Apprised me of the facts:
It’s well known on the world wide web
That, for a pound or two,
Enlightened gurus will divulge
A means to cure you!
But, as we are all different,
With wealth and needs diverse,
A tailored cure must be devised
That suits your tastes (and purse!)
‘For me, eggs steeped in vinegar –
As long as it is pure –
Will neutralise sugar in my blood,
And thus provide the cure!’
‘An egg cure wasn’t right for me,
But treacle smeared just so
Will draw the glucose from my blood,
And keep my levels low!’
‘And you?’ I asked the man in pants,
‘Your cure’s the strangest yet!’
‘Indeed! My pants, the guru claimed,
Must be forever wet!
But not just any liquid goo
Would fix my pancreas,
But only that extruded from
Expensive mountain grass!’
And with these words I took my leave
And slowly backed away,
For I was sure there is no cure
However much you pay!

I'm doubled up here Northie - sides are splitting! Spam is the cure??!!! Of course! it is! 😛🙄Love your humorous verse too - witty as per usual
Brightened up my day, thanks. PS. You aren't by chance the lady Charlenesalad herself in cognito are you - performing a bit of trickery to while away your holiday? 🙄😱WL
