"SPAM", translated = "YUCK", "Slimy" and similar to those small "Cocktail
Weenies" (similar to pale dog poop units!).
Happy Fourth Weekend!

Hi Bernd,
You asked:
P:S.: Do any of our German list members have a German word for that kind of
canned food ???
"Frühstücksfleisch" or "Dosenfleisch" - YUCK! Actually, "spam" seems to be
an abbrevation of "spiced pork and ham"...
Hope this helps,
Norbert
I thought the name came from pork shoulder and ham?

Given the remarks made about SPAM on this list, people
here might be interested in knowing that SPAM is regarded
as “soul food” in Hawaii. They even have “Spam sushi.”
Go look at 1. “Hawaiian soul food”
