Mmm Mmm good! No, no, no, not Campbell??s. I prefer SPAM any day. This is Part II of my amazing SPAM article. The question and answer part! :)
Q: What is God's name is SPAM anyway?!?!
A: Pork shoulder, ham, and spices mostly. Top secret spices. MuAhAaAaAa.
Q: There are many different types of SPAM, for example: SPAM Lite, SPAM Smokey Roasted, SPAM Less Sodium, SPAM Oven Roasted Turkey and just plain SPAM. Which one is the best?
A: Who cares? SPAM is cool any way you eat it.
Q: How did SPAM get the name "SPAM"?
A: Well, the good people over at the Hormel company came up with a contest giving the winner a $100.00 dollar prize (whoopidy-doo!) if they gave them a really great name. Well, Kenneth Daigneau, an actor and sibling to a Hormel vice-president won the contest (I think there was some kind of conspiracy going on with that, but what's done is done) and that's how SPAM got it's name!!
Q: I've heard Koreans consider SPAM a "delicacy". What the heck is up with that?
A: Well, you'd consider SPAM a delicacy if you didn't have an oppertunity to taste it everyday. It's kind of like those roses outside your house. Ever stop to savor the SPAM?
Q: I'm a statistics person (not really, but for the sake of the question I am), so how long, end to end, would all those SPAM cans stretch?
A: All those SPAM cans would go around the earth 13 times.
Q: Do Hawaiians really like SPAM or is just one of those myth things? Hehe.
A: Not a myth! Hawaiians dig SPAM. They eat more SPAM per person that any other human in any other state.
Q: I'm doing some traveling; can I find SPAM anywhere?
A: You should be able to, since SPAM is trademarked in 101 countries. It's always a good idea to have an extra can of SPAM with you at all times. The 7 ounce fits in a pocket and the 12 ounce fits nicely in any overhead carrying bin.
This is Cloudy83, all done with the only SPAM documentaries in the Whyville archives!
