I believe it might be good to have in case of some sort of zombie apocolypse or some such event where getting to the shops isn't possible, nor is using your stove/oven/etc.

Don't know if I would rather eat Spam or brains. Hard choice.

Ew. I've never had it, but it is just so not appealing to me

about on the same level as chicken in a can, you know, the whole chicken a can. Ew ew ew!!!

I know I ate Spam as a kid, but I ate a lot of things as a kid I that I couldn't face, much less eat, now.

I refuse to see it as 'food' - I think the label would have more nutritional value.

Not a food found in our house! Never tried it & never will- same with chicken in a can. Not sure why tuna / salmon in a can's ok and ham / chicken isn't but there's just something wrong with tinned chicken or ham.

I've never tried spam.
But apparently my dad loves the bacon spam.
I didn't know you could get different types of spam till my mum mentioned how much bacon spam dad was going through!

Define food?! Most things I would not consider a food!

I grew up on spam as my Nan and grandad looked after us quite a but when we were kids and they lived very WW2 like if you get my drift... I use to LOVE IT!!!! It was my favorite Sunday night meal put on a white bread sandwich with cheese and pickles. I would never let my children eat it nor would I eat it now. Anything in a can is a no no in our house, it's taken a long time to get to that stage but it's where we are at in our journey.

I've never bought it but i used to have a friend who liked to eat it fried. I tasted it once at her house and thought it was better than i imagined it would be but i have no desire to eat it ever again
