Spam is desert food. If I was stranded in the desert and all there was to eat was spam I’d keep looking for…food. Tuna too

Think about this when you're nibblin' on that hot dog, Vienna sausage or potted meat.
Thank goodness they're the boneless ones!

Really any sausage. Use everything but the squeal.
Pan fried SPAM and A1 sauce sandwiches. Ah, the young bachelor days. And who can forget all the glorious flavors of Hamburger Helper.
When the boys are fending for themselves they will often fix cubed Spam mixed with Mac&Cheese and scramble eggs with cubed Spam.
Crispy fried Spam, American cheese, 'mater and mayo on white bread for when I'm flying solo.

Cubed Spam and scrambled eggs on a toasted English muffin with a bit of hot sauce. 2 of those and a cup of coffee will wake you up in the morning.

I like Spam and corned beef. We weren't too flush in England when I was a kid.

....and "inverted". I can only picture what that means, but I'm pretty sure it's a good move.
Had a guy who worked for me one time who partook of those things; his instructions for preparing/cooking them was, " . . . thaw 'em, scrape 'em and then boil the **** out of them !".

I kinda like Spam. Don't hate it, but also don't eat it often. I do keep a few cans in my emergency supplies.
But once in a while Spam and eggs or a fried Spam sandwich is pretty good just to be different.

I made it to retirement age without as much as a sniff of Spam. I say I'm fortunate. Reading the posts here, seems like I've been missing out on a culinary treat. I believe I will deprive myself and live out my life with the status quo.

SPAM is actually pretty benign compared to some others, such as 'potted meat' and 'vienna sausages' which, as a friend of mine was heard to note many times, "Those are nothing but lips and ******** " (The ********* being the OTHER end of the alimentary canal . . . )
'Tripe', 'head cheese', 'pig's knuckles', 'Greenland shark', 'balut' . . . . >shiver< . . . a lot of things some people eat (in my opinion) would "gag a maggot off a gut wagon". Different cultures eat some pretty , uh, unique things that far exceed my capacity. Kimchi . . . nuoc mam . . . acquired tastes that I never acquired. One could accurately observe that some of these things mentioned rely on rot (splitting hairs = "fermentation") in the preparation; but then Tabasco, Sriracha, sauerkraut, salami, chorizo, kombucha . . . these do, as well (and many others I'm sure).
I remember reading of the tribe in Africa that keep cattle for regular bleeding so they can drink the blood mixed with milk as one of their staples. Yet these same people are repulsed by the idea of eating a fish. Different strokes for different folks . . .

True story: Back in the '70s when I lived in GA, a convicted thief was trying to get his conviction overturned due to a "coerced" confession. It seemed he got angry and confessed because two LEOs were making fun of him because he broke into a meat-packing plant and stole cases of meat. The packages were boxes of pig rectums. Needless to say, he lost his appeal.
Macaroni & cheese with chopped SPAM is hard to beat also.

One of my Fav Canned Meals is -
Fry a small can of Hash with chopped onions.
Into the bowl, hit it Hard with Old Louisiana.
Cover with small can of corn.
