I was getting ready to write a post about SPAM, the canned meat, and I wanted to write a clever sentence bemoaning the fact that this delicious food has the same name as the hated junk email that clutters our inboxes when I learned this:


Spam is literally named after SPAM? Did everyone else know this??
I grew up eating SPAM. It tastes delicious in fried rice, scrambled eggs, and best of all, in spam musubi. We introduced my father-in-law to musubi this week. I was a little surprised that in all the years he’s visited Hawai’i he’d never had it before. Yesterday, my husband made us eggs and spam, which three of us ate with relish and one of us looked at with slight disgust.
I believe there are two camps: people who love SPAM and people who are wrong. At least we can all agree that spam in your inbox is terrible.
In which camp do you belong?
