Are you a starving Guatemalan orphan? No? Then you may have to wait awhile to sample Hormel’s newest food-based edible substitute, Spammy.
The new product was designed to help combat malnourishment in the poverty-stricken nation of Guatemala. According to the Austin Daily Herald, “To ensure that Spammy is used only by those enrolled in the anti-hunger program, a family has to return previously used cans in order for them to receive another month’s worth of the spread.”
Said one Guatemalan child to his mother, “Another month?”
Spammy joins a delectable pedigree of other heavyweights in luncheon-meat giant’s stable, including SPAM Hot & Spicy, SPAM with Cheese, SPAM Garlic, SPAM Golden Honey Grail, SPAM Lite, SPAM Classic, and SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM, SPAM . . . [The Star]
