It's done on the islands all the time, Hawaii and Guam. When food takes so long to ship over canned meats last long enough to handle it.
I like a big Hawaiian breakfast with spam fried rice, I just have a mental issue with fried runny eggs on my pumpkin pie. I'm not necessarily set in my ways, it's just reactionary, who knows what this thanksgiving might bring.

Think like moist jerky, a lot of flavors are sweet and salty. Spam isn’t some mystery meat either, it’s all made out of pork shoulder cause it contains the right ratio of meat to fat. And it’s cheap

Please tell me that's a google image & you didn't actually order it.

Sooo wrong.
What’s wrong with spam musubi? Seriously, why the hatred of food? It’s just food. I know there is some stigma attached to it. “It’s poor food, government meat for people who can’t afford “real” meat.

Ever had tuna fish from a can? How about soup, or beans from a can?

I mean, c’mon people. It’s meat from a pig. Pigs are delicious. What’s with all the prejudice? I think y’all hating on the social stigma more than the food product itself.

Seriously. It’s just food. Some people don’t have ANY food to eat, and y’all bitching about meat in a can?

What The Fuck? I hope none of you have ever felt what it’s like to be truly hungry. Not this 1st world problem bullshit “I missed lunch” hungry. More like “wondering if you have enough energy to get through the day without calories” hungry.

It brings back the "hungry days" feel of many of my early child hood meals plus it's too salty for my taste.
We didn't have much when I was little & that stuff was obviously cheap so we ate a bunch of it. Just don't care for it & several other "poor" foods.

If anything, Spam should be celebrated, not hated. It is a wonderful product that has done a lot of good in the world. More than I can say for most foods.

When I graduated and moved off campus I almost exclusively ate kraft dinner, canned tuna or salmon and bananas from costco. I had to choose between having somewhere to live and having something nutritional to eat. The thought of eating kraft dinner now makes me sick to my stomach.

I think a lot of the hate is from people who ate way too much of it when they were poor and growing consumer awareness about the health risks associated with eating ultra processed foods that are high in sodium and saturated fats.

We often make tuna salad in summer. you just cook up some pasta shells or three coloured pasta even let it cool few minutes then add a can or 2 of tuna, about two tablespoons full of mayo, try one first, you don't want it soggy, then 1 tablespoon of ketchup (a bitter variety works better than sweet) add some small cubes of cheese and cucumber and serve on lettuce leaves.

It is super fast, easy and tastes pretty damn good.
