spiced ham = SPAM
According to legend, it comes from condensing the words "spiced pork and ham" together. Amazingly, there is a whole website dedicated to spam! Go google it, it's quite amusing!
1937 The first can of SPAM® luncheon meat was produced in 1937 in Austin, Minn
Spam is a canned meat product made from pork and ham. It also contains salt, water, sugar, and preservatives.
No, but it is combined from "spiced" and "ham."
The word "maps" spelled backward is "spam" (after the canned meat product Spam).
Hormel began developing the canned meat product Spam in 1936, but the company had no name for it. Jay C. Hormel, the grandson of the company founder offered a $100 prize for the best name. Actor Kenneth Daigneau, brother of company VP Ralph Daigneau came up with the name Spam, allegedly a combination of the words spiced ham, and Hormel began production May 1937 in Austin, Minnesota.
Spam is cooked in the can before making it to the shelf. The gel is the by-product of the cooking process. It comes from the meat itself.

Some common noun for the canned goods Spam are: product brand merchandise food meat comestible
I looked online, and then in Webster's 17th edition dictionary. To my surprise the use of the word "spam" for large numbers of unsolicited emails was first used in 1994. The reference is from Monty Python's Flying Circus television series in which chanting of the word Spam (trademark for canned meat product) overrides the other dialogue. _______________________
