SPAM Introduced into the Market (1937)

Introduced in 1937 by the Hormel Foods Corporation as “Hormel Spiced Ham,” the precooked, canned-meat product was renamed “SPAM” when it began to lose market share. SPAM is now popular worldwide and is sold in more than 40 countries, including South Korea, where it is said to be so popular that it is sometimes given as a gift. The product has become a part of pop culture as the butt of many jokes and urban legends about mystery meat. What ingredients are used to make SPAM? Discuss
