"According to its label, Spam's basic ingredients are pork shoulder meat, with ham meat added, salt, water, modified potato starch as a binder, sugar, and sodium nitrite as a preservative. Natural gelatin forms during cooking in its tins on the production line. Many have raised concerns over Spam's nutritional attributes, as Spam contains almost double the amount of fat compared to its protein content." I liked it a lot when I was younger but now it really just looks like cat food.
