This is where things get interesting. People have been trying to figure out what “SPAM” really means for a very long time. There are a few different ideas:
Some people think it means “Specially Processed American Meat.”
Others say it means “Shoulder of Pork and Ham.”
There are even people who say it means “Salt Preserves Any Meat” or “Spiced Ham.”
The truth is, even the company doesn’t really say what it officially stands for. This has made SPAM even more mysterious and interesting.
