I've never actually had it (the "meat" that is).
Is it as horrible as I think?

Yes and no. It kind of depends on what you like. if you generally like potted meats, you'll probably think it's OK. It's kind of like pressed ground ham, although not smoky or quite as tasty.

Enough salt to last through The Apocalypse.
For me, it's camp food. Spam sandwiches. Fried spam and eggs. Spamburgers.

@mik I enjoy a small can of hash heated up in a skillet for lunch.
Rich, flavorful, and filling. Perfect lunch.
Would Spam qualify?

We call it corned beef or bully beef here. I like it as well.
I’ll fry with hash brown potatoes for breakfast or mix with English hot mustard into a spread for lunch sandwiches. I should it too as spread with homemade horse radish.

Yep. That's how I've made it - with potatoes. I think some of it already had potatoes in it.

When I was a kid it was what you ate when you'd run out of food and the shops were all shut on Sunday.
It would probably go well with some delicious American cheese product.

It's quite popular in Hawaii. Here's some recipes.

horse radish
I hadn't even considered.
OK. On my next shopping list, a can o' SPAM. Some sourdough bread...
Sounds perfect!
But there’s no Spam in it!
It’s bully beef - tinned corn beef .

George, we prefer the reduced sodium version. It still has plenty of salt in it.
I did not like it for many years, but hubby has changed my mind. I now enjoy it with eggs and toast for breakfast. Hubby likes it for lunch with some toasted bread.
Be sure to brown it in a skillet. That makes a nice crisp crust for both texture and flavor. Do that with diced Spam, and then add it to your scrambled eggs or omelet.
