Never thought I'd read the phrase "beloved canned meat" but here we are

It's pretty popular in Hawaii.

I have a Hawaiian BBQ place near me that has tons of meals that include fried spam. It's freaking amazing.

Spam musubi (which is basically spam teriyaki in a flat rice ball) is delicious. I was surprised, as someone who had never had spam before but always heard it being ridiculed.

Korea, too. It's a fatty processed meat full of salt; if it's not ruined it's pretty tasty.
