Where does the word Spam come from?
I think it's a contraction of "spiced ham" or "spiced pork and ham". This was is a tinned meat product made famous during WW2 by the Americans in Europe. Food was rationed and it was welcomed at the time. When war ended more food became available and Spam got a reputation as being for poor people. Hence the term for unwanted messages and adverts. Spam was popular in the US as well. During rationing in the US, you were only allowed so much meat in a week. You were allowed far more canned goods in your rations. Spam counted as a canned good but was meat. So you could still get meat if you liked Spam. The source is my mother who was a teenager in WW II. I've heard the story other places so it seems reliable. I think its reputation was low because nobody really understood what was in it but that's more conjecture.

A spam fritter is a slice of Spam fried in batter. Commonly eaten with chips and mushy peas, spam fritters are served in fish and chip shops and burger bars in the UK. They were first introduced during World War II due to fish being unavailable. Spam fritters were so associated with the war that in 1995 a government memo relating to the commemoration of the 50-year anniversary of the war ending recommended "spam-fritter frying to get into the wartime spirit".In 2006 the makers of Spam, Hormel Foods, announced the return of the spam fritter in pre-packaged form.
