Weird History Food is sending you a SPAM alert. No, not those annoying emails you get from Planet Fitness, but the delicious ham in a can. SPAM has a longer history than you would expect, but probably a little longer than a can of SPAM's typical shelf-life. Peel this video can back and get some mustard, we're going ham on you.
