Spam, the world-famous seasoned pork meat in a can, celebrates its 85th anniversary this year. And sales are booming, with tens of millions cans hopping off supermarket shelves a year. Imagine that. And where do you think most of this iconic canned meat is eaten? Any guesses? No? Answer: Hawaii. A staggering 7 million cans of it a year!
Thank you for the great information. I have some low salt spam in my pantry for a rainy day, but I think I'll have to open a can and make some musubi. My husband ate some spam for the first time while we were on the Big Island in May, and he loved it.
We ate a lot of spam in the 1950s—usually with breakfast but also for dinner. Spam and eggs, spam and toast, spam with potatoes and greens. I must say, I think I’ve had my fill.
I love musubi! Interesting history of spam--I never knew:)

Just love you! Your approach to life is so refreshing.
Yes! Not to mention Monty Python....
So what does the word Spam mean or from where does it come?
Love this Greg. Funny, fun and so informative. But you still haven’t convinced me to try it.
