News of the Weird last reported on Hormel Foods Corp.'s Spam in 2002 when McDonald's was test-marketing a breakfast containing the luncheon meat in Hawaii, where Spam is a delicacy. It is perhaps even more highly revered in South Korea, where (according to an October Los Angeles Times dispatch) an estimated 8 million cans are sold each holiday season, and a gift set of 12 in upscale department stores goes for about $44. Jeon Pyoung Soo, the South Korean Spam brand manager, continues to be puzzled at the product's U.S. reputation: "I can't understand what is funny about Spam." [Los Angeles Times, 10-15-05]

What's funny about it? Um.... it sucks? Its mystery meat nature?

I have never actually heard anyone say that spam as a meat product tasted bad.

Spam omelettes...or, in Ramen Noodles for all us po' folk.

Grilled spam... almost tastes like real meat :D

"What about spam spam spam spam eggs and spam?"

Monty Python....

"We're out of eggs."

Want me to lay a few fresh ones ?

we could always substitute spam for the eggs....
