On this day in 1937, Spam was introduced.

As someone who spent much of my youth at my Grandparent's place in Spam town USA I take umbrage to anyone calling Spam mystery meat lol. It's actually all from pretty decent cuts of pork, which is weird considering how cheap it is. That Monty Python skit is a classic by the way.

Gave me a small smile in movie 'Mrs. Harris Goes to Paris' when Spam made a cameo appearance. Was/is that a common food in Britian?
