When I lived on the big island, even McDonald’s had spam options on their menu.

When I lived there rice with fried spam eggs and shoyu was a staple. And also delicious.

Believe it or not, Hawaii actually does like SPAM! It goes back to the military presence on the islands during WWII where it gained cultural significance.
