I believe it’s available still in Home Bargains although here in west Wirral ,the consumption of this would lead to social exclusion | |

The origin of the name comes from" S pecially P repared A merican M eat . It was a mainstay for the american forces in WW2 and supplied to the GI's . It retained its popularity post war with the home market hence its presence on supermarket shelves.
Personally, I eat quite a lot of spam It's great sliced thinly and fried in a pan with one or two eggs . Try it you will see what I mean . There are 2 varieties of spam there is a tin of bacon spam and also the pork meat one , both can be fried to good effect. | | | |

It was Saturday night in the Smiths in Llansamlet. He was a brick ice by day and put on his white overall to sell cockles in the pub at night. Made good money.
I forget his name. |  |
| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

The most “ intelligent” Joesus
Most belligerent is Dr Winston
Most likeable are Pete and Rhondda boy
