The makers of Spam, saying that their “special relationship with the Hawaiian community spans decades,” have donated over 264,000 cans to aid the disaster-relief efforts on Maui, the company said in a press release.

    Yeah, they should have brought rice and pineapples with it. Ooh, and some sweet and sour sauce

      Yes. Just give them real food. Not sewer meat.

        Spam is just pork and ham mixed with some salt and sugar, I don’t see how that’s not “real food”, people all over the planet have eaten those things as food for thousands of years before someone had the audacity to …put it in a can for convenient distribution.

          Because the ethical move would be to stop existing and make shelf space for real food.
