For anyone that's never actually eaten spam and just goes along with the common mentality that it's disgusting, you really have to try it for yourself. But don't eat it directly from the can, because that *is* disgusting. Slice it up and fry it a little. Makes for a quick and easy breakfast. Millions of Pacific Islanders (and some Asians) can't be wrong.

According to Time:

Today, there are 13 different varieties of Spam — classic, less sodium, lite, hot & spicy, Black Pepper, Jalapeño, spread, singles, singles lite, hickory smoke, bacon, cheese, and roasted turkey. The Jalapeño and Black Pepper selections were introduced for Spam's 75th anniversary.Jul 9, 2012

I think that I need to incorporate more spam in to my diet. I hope that I can find some of these interesting flavors here in VA.

That's at the new target. They also sent every body in Kailua a coupon for a free can of spam.

I have to admit that the two purple cans on the left, and the one blue can on the far right turned the other way around are really messing with my state of serenity.

Cudos to the stock-boys. Except for those 2 cans that are not front facing

I love that stuff, and I'm Canadian. I like it fried in its own fat, on buttered toast with beans. I've converted numerous doubters over the years. I've taken them on camping trips as a ruse, just to break down their culinary defenses, and get them to try this magical canned meat.

You can also cut it up into small cubes, fry it, and use it in any application you might use lardons.

this is kind of like that scene in the Matrix when Trinity and Neo require guns and so they pull up the software that grants them access to like a million aisles of weapons to choose from. except, you know, instead of guns, there's a lot of spam.

So I work there and we actually received an entire 40' containers worth of SPAM. This is roughly 1/2 of that load... Mmmm Spam...

That's not got much spam in it. Not as much as spam, egg, sausage, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, baked beans, spam and spam.

Anyway, like I was sayin', spam is the fruit of the sea. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. Dey's uh, spam-kabobs, spam creole, spam gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple spam, lemon spam, coconut spam, pepper spam, spam soup, spam stew, spam salad, spam and potatoes, spam burger, spam sandwich. That- that's about it.

Spamtastic. I do enjoy this much-maligned meat product. People laugh when I tell them that I brought a Tobasco Spamwich for lunch. *Bitches don't know 'bout my spamwich.*

Most people don't really think about the cost of shipping fresh meat to Hawaii.

OP! Would you mind taking a photo of the fresh meat department? Please include the prices.

I used to work with a girl who's husband was from Tonga. She was always buying him Spam. As in having to go to multiple grocery stores to buy what stock they had as this dude could put away that much Spam. Finally met him, and holy wall of human. He was a big dude.

Now all you need is an aisle of Lunchboxes, Instamash and Pork'n Beans to make an aisle of Caravan Lunch at a campfire.
