It's supposed to be SPiced HAM.

Spam is Spiced Ham,

spam is like a cross of bologna and ham. pork product

pork shoulder it is actually a good cut of meat. The people that are saying it is like bologna and leftover meats are wrong.

Pork shoulder chopped up and canned.

MMM SPAM

is it even a meat? i thought it was a man made concoction. stay away from the spam!

Here's what Yahoo says ...

chopped pork shoulder meat with ham meat added
salt (for binding, flavor, and firmness)
water (to help in mixing)
sugar (for flavor)
sodium Nitrite (for color and as a preservative)

it stands for " spiced ham" it was a convient way to get meat to the troups in WW2

It's supposed to be short for either Spiced Ham, or Specially Processed Army Meat.

I'm fairly sure it's pork, just not necessarily the nice bits.

it's ham loaded with salt, it's really a perserved meat that is used in all seasons and stays fresh for a long long time

Mostly it is pork. And we love it fried til crispy on the outside.

Offals of pig. all left over parts of pork carcass that has no special use . Grinded, floured, spiced and canned.

spam is predominately ham cooked similar to corned beef both very popular in the 2nd world war

pork usually the made from the left overs from weiners. both contain all sorts of by products.
meat is a unhealthy thing.. it causes all sorts of diseases, sicknesses, wrong thinkings. There was no need for a health guide until there became meat eaters! Pork is the worst for you though ask any 7th day adventist they'll tell you that! Healthiest people are meat and dairy free! I don't want to give up eggs or dairy myself!

Pork products! I don't think you want to know more than that.

Spam is spiced ham. I have two interesting facts. The Spam factory is in Austin, Minnesota. I live in Minnesota so we are proud of our Spam, although I never eat it! lol. The state that consumes the most Spam is actually Hawaii.

it's ham

pork product or byproduct

I don't like it.

SPiced hAM ... fry some up with eggs

your guess is as good as mine, stay away from it, it is bound to be highly processed meat which is the pits - health wise
