    Wow. I am from Sweden and I had no idea that spam came with different taste and forms. When I was a poor student I bought spam and canned food. I had no idea how to bake spam I thought people only ate it cold as it was.😅 Thanks for posting this. Today I have learned something new.

    Probably the most amazing part of the Python SPAM skit is how trapped the woman was in being forced to eat SPAM because she couldn't order any of the dishes sans SPAM because it wouldn't be that dish if you took the SPAM out, so it would become a dish they don't offer.
    A crowning achievement in alternate universe bizarre nerd humor.

    Tocino is a pork-belly product common in the Philippines that's been cured in a sweet marinade and is frequently served for breakfast. Spam's take on the dish definitely captures that sweet, bacon-y flavor, so much so that it makes us want to run out and buy the real thing for a direct

    It may come as a pleasant surprise to learn that SPAM is not the preservative-packed mystery meat you might think it is. In fact, SPAM only contains six ingredients! And the brand's website lists them all. They are: pork with ham meat added (that counts as one), salt, water, potato starch, sugar, and sodium nitrite.
