Remembering.

Thank you David! Forewarned is, ah, forehungry?   

...was SPAM ever good for any system?   Seems like "SPAM"  has always been synonymous with "poison."    😬 😬 😬 😬

A human system or septic system?  LOL!

It stands for SPiced hAM. Pork and ham is in it and, I guess, spices and what not. The Hawaiian people LOVE the stuff. They make all sorts of dishes with it and I have to tell you, it's WAY better than poi!

@perrone1 I'll stay with SOS.

LOL! Me 2 Bob. I loved it in the Army and later, at home!

I have not eaten Spam in 60 years but I liked it better than the shingle topping.

I enjoy some Spam and eggs every now and then. I'd eat more except for the stratospheric sodium content. 

Span and eggs a go to breakfast at our cabin! Really rustic and cooked on our wood stove!

I like eggs and spam without the spam. 🥴

I like my Spam over easy with eggs poached; the healthy alternative.

My father used to talk about eating SOS while in the Army. I don't remember what it was but I think there was dried beef in it,  At Ramstien AB, we had  an Army chow hall and an Air Force chow hall.  I would eat breakfast at the Army midnight chow before heading to work. I don't remember seeing anything that looked like SOS on the chow line though.

You're correct; it's creamed chip beef, or as you mention, dried thinly-sliced beef with white cream gravy, on toast.
