Well, I ain't gonna say I ate a lot of Spam in my life. Dad was in the Army and Mom liked to cook, so we had stuff that didn't come in a can for various reasons. Spam was not Army food by the time I got there in the '70s but we had a lot of "sea rats" that came in the traditional three flavours: red snot, brown snot and gray snot.

That said, as a penurious graduate student in Hormel's backyard I used to occasionally splurge on a can and make Spam quesadillas. Made a nice change from the beans I was mainly living on!

Funny thing: I haven't had Spam for about 20 years but beans are on the menu for supper tonight.

O.H.
 
What types of Spam do the Hawaii costcos offer?? Any worth buying in bulk for a trip back to the mainland?
I’ve only seen regular and reduced-sodium in 8-packs. As I recall, it wasn’t a good deal so I don’t buy it there.

With the current state of the economy, you’re doing pretty good the closer you get to $2/can. I haven’t seen it under $2 for a while now.

Time your visit with the Waikiki SPAM Jam Festival:
