SPAM — Don’t Laugh

We didn’t have SPAM often when I was growing up. My father believed that if it didn’t come wrapped in white paper from Loos’ Meat Market, it wasn’t meat. But SPAM is nutritious, and tasty when encouraged by your favorite seasonings. Be careful. It is high in fat.

  • In 1937 Jay Hormel developed the first canned meat product that did not require refrigeration.
  • Seven billion cans have been sold since 1937. They are leaving grocery shelves at 100 million a year—that comes out to 20 every minute.
  • SPAM stands for Squirrel, Possum And Mouse. Or is it spiced ham?
  • SPAM enthusiasts sport their enthusiasm with nightlights, neckties, snow domes, beach towels, doggie shirts, and more enthusiasms.
