Serve up your best Spam

There is, according to Hormel Foods’ Web site, a Spam Museum, “Spammobiles,” and fans worldwide. Most of the fans live—and eat Spam—in Hawaii.

The islanders—including some who will host the 90 th Annual Kiwanis International Convention—crave the meaty treat. According to the 1987 Hawai’i’s Spam Cookbook, Hawaiians top all other US states in Spam consumption, buying 4 million cans annually. That’s nearly 11,000 cans daily and more than three times more Spam than any other state. And Hawaiians find a variety of ways to prepare it.
