Spam with rice and eggs is fine, classic pairing. Macadamia nuts with Spam flavoring is something new altogether.
I've been obsessing about where I can find myself a can of Spam-flavored macadamia nuts after I saw them available late last year. They couldn't be ordered online until just recently. When they were finally available, I ordered up a few cans.
Funny thing was that JustJenn had gone to Hawaii later that same week and sent me a can when she returned to Los Angeles. It was like she was reading my mind.
I love fried Spam with white rice and scrambled eggs, but Spam used as a flavoring for macadamia nuts is a bit of Spam overload. Much like how you need white rice as a side to fried Spam, the macadamia nut helps to counter the saltiness of the Spam flavor.
It only kind of works. They are extremely salty and if it has the same shelf life as its hammy namesake, will come in handy when the year 3000 rolls around. Or maybe I'll just integrate them into a Spam-flavored macadamia musubi.
Do you like SPAM? If so, what's your favorite way to eat it?

Omg, I just had some of these! I'm from Hawaii, so I LOVE spam. It's pretty good, but the aftertaste is like raw spam, lol. I saw that someone made a musubi with one of these in the middle, like those ume musubis, haha, it might be good, you should try it!
Spam and rice...is always going to be the best way to eat it :)I don't eat SPAM anymore. When I was a kid I used to love SPAM & rice. I was always scolded by my mom because that's all I ate when we had a SPAM dish.
I don't eat it now because it's unhealthy. My dad still buys it, but I always urge him to buy the low-fat one.
Spam and rice is the greatest thing ever (we buy the "lite" one, though, so it's not so salty~).
If there's no rice, I'll opt for uncooked spam on a bagel. :)
I think I may throw up. That sounds awful, lol.
well, I wouldn't try it but to each their own
I like SPAM, and one of my favorite ways to eat it is a dish of my own creation. It was inspired by Monty Python, and I call it "SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, Baked Beans, And SPAM."
