20 years ago, I was traveling from Berlin to Amsterdam and was stranded for the night at a tiny train station (East Germany's version of Mayberry) where there was NOTHING open until after 7am the next morning...I had a can of Spam my Mother had packed in my bag (as a joke, I think). I ate that can and it tasted like Thanksgiving dinner...I was so hungry, that lovely potted salty meat stuff was heaven at the time.

It is best on grilled rye bread. I'd take it over lobster or any other seafood...

Spam is good and all but I went on a cruise a year ago and had some amazing meals (what mostly made them amazing was they it was all you can eat and free (kind of, probably incl in the price to get on the boat)).

Well, I'd take seafood over Spam, but everyone's favorite potted meat product is really tasty when you extract the whole glob from the can, skewer it on a stick, and roast the whole thing over the campfire. It was called "the (poor) geology student's dinner" when I was in college...

I would, too. But I've actually got a sane reason for that.

Can't say I've experienced Spam, but I imagine it about ranks up there with this.

SPAM is Hawaii's state canned food. Many Hawaii McDs and BKs have it on the official menu.

No, nothing generally considered to be edible is as bad as corned beef hash.
