Post in collaboration with SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham
Hawaii has the highest rate of SPAM® consumption in America so it seems only fitting to create a SPAM® Hawaiian Style Pizza! Pineapple splits the crowd when it comes to pizza toppings but combined with SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham they are a match made in a tin can - if not in heaven!
SPAM. SPAM. SPAM. No, not the annoying stuff clogging up your inbox but the iconic meat in a tin. SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham. What does it mean to you? Monty Python? School Dinners? Guilty Pleasure?! Over the years it has been maligned, celebrated and musicalised. SPAM Fritters were one of my absolute favourite school dinners back in the day accompanied by the obligatory ice cream scoops of mash and spaghetti in tomato sauce. Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.
Would you believe that the world’s most iconic meat is celebrating 80 years as a global brand this year? What better time to celebrate in the UK than the official SPAM® Appreciation Week which kicks off today and runs from 6-12 March 2017. The popular SPAM Can Tour will also return for second year, launching in Liverpool on 6th May and touring the country until end of August. The specially designed, eye-catching airstream will be serving up free SPAM samples, giving away recipe ideas, plus exciting opportunities to obtain limited edition merchandise. To celebrate SPAM Appreciation Week, there’s also a chance for fans to win a VIP trip to the Liverpool event and be special guests on the first tour stop.
Once out of the can SPAM® Chopped Pork and Ham is certainly more than just a square meal! SPAM can… be sliced, diced, chopped, grilled and fried to make delicious quick and easy meals and snacks. Why not try SPAM as a pizza topping as per the recipe below?
