Best Answer

The name Spam comes from a shortening of the words Spiced ham.

Yep, originally, but not now. (Like 3M, which used to stand for the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Co.) Got this response from Hormel when I asked about the origin of the name, SPAM:

Kenneth Daigneau, brother of a Hormel Foods Vice-President suggested the name at a New Year's Eve party in 1936. The trademark was originally derived by contracting "spiced ham". Immediately after the term was coined, it became a distinctive trademark of Hormel Foods Corporation. This trademark is not considered a contraction.

Is boiled chicken bad if it comes out with brown stuff on the meat and bones?

You actually want brown stuff on the meat and bones. What you don't want is red stuff on the meat and bones. When the chicken is cooked, the bones will have a thin membrane that turns brown. If you have any red juice or any visible redness beneath the outer meat and skin, you need to cook it longer.
