The world’s most iconic meat is celebrating 80 years as a global brand this year and what better time to celebrate than with the official SPAM® Appreciation Week, 6-12 March 2017, a time when SPAM® fans can come together and their share their stories.
SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham is so versatile and certainly more than just a square meal! SPAM® Can… be sliced, diced, chopped, grilled and fried to make delicious quick and easy meals and snacks.
