I've read most of the replies to see some like Spam and some hate it. Personally, I think it is the name that turns some people off because so many jokes have been made about Spam, plus some think it's beneath their dignity to eat Spam.

I don't eat it as a rule because I'm saving those cans. Sliced Spam, browned in a skillet is simply good as a sandwich with mustard. Also fried with an egg is good. I wonder if people are opening the can and eating it just like that without browning it to produce that good flavor? I would not eat it straight out of the can unless I had no way of browning it and that isn't going to happen because I've got several different fuels to provide cooking - enough for years of browning Spam.

I still need to get Dak ham and can't pass the Hormel products in the grocery store without getting something. All that meat just sitting on the shelf.

No it’s the taste, and the price. It’s a really expensive meat given it’s size and lack of flavor. My mom had a lot of recipes that revolved around spam, I use most of them now, only I replaced the spam with kielbasa, now they taste good, and they’re cheaper.

It would be at the bottom of my list. Never liked it when they served it at school. I like other canned meats better is the main reason I don’t buy it. Plus it is pretty expensive.

I’d rather buy meat on sale and can my own for the most part. Cheaper, tastes better, and I know what’s in it.
