In its original meaning '''Spam''' is the proprietary name for a type of processed luncheon meat made from pork. The name is a contraction of "SPiced hAM", and was very popular in England during World War II, when fresh meat was in short supply. <ref> See the official Spam Website: http://www.spam.com/ </ref> It's a luncheon meat, pink, comes in a can, made by Hormel. Most Americans intuitively, viscerally associate "Spam" with "no nutritive or aesthetic value," though it is still relatively popular (especially in Hawaii) and can be found in almost any grocery store.) Spam has its own newsgroup, alt.spam.
