I wonder why the German word for manufactured meats never took off 'WURST'
Coz it means SAUSAGE and took off like wildfire in Germany. The closest to SPAM I can think of is Fleischkäse - which is meatloaf pretty much. My wife loves Chopped (Chop-pedd phonetically) which is chopped ham and similar - but coarser cut.
 
I still prefer potted meat. It's much easier to spread on a sandwich.

So does hog's head cheese, but I eat that too :D
I was wondering what that was but now I nknow it is really good stuff we call it 'brawn'.


I reckon it would look great as a big block with a couple of eyes, a brain and some ears for decoration.
Reminds me of a great Steve Martin movie

Head cheese - Wikipedia
A version pickled with vinegar is known as souse.Head cheese is not a dairy cheese, but a terrine or meat jelly made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig, or less commonly a sheep or cow, and often set in aspic. The parts of the head used vary, but the brain, eyes, and ears are usually removed.

Crap! After seeing some of these different versions of "food", I've lost my appetite...

I've been to the Spam museum in Austin, Minnesota several times over the years when I am driving from Maine to Seattle and back. It's actually a pretty cool and informative place.
