No one’s gonna say it? Fuck it i guess it’s my time.
They’re literally spamming Maui!
Low sodium spam chopped into cubes and fried until crispy are absolutely delicious. I don’t know why people have such an aversion to it.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The makers of Spam, saying that their “special relationship with the Hawaiian community spans decades,” have donated over 264,000 cans to aid the disaster-relief efforts on Maui, the company said in a press release.
“In all, the Spam brand has donated cash and product with a retail value of more than $1,000,000 to directly help those impacted by the wildfires.”
The company said it has partnered with nonprofit group Convoy of Hope to get the cans to where they are needed most.
“The fact that Spam doesn’t need refrigeration makes it a perfect item for Convoy to deliver to survivors,” Stacy Lamb, vice president, disaster services at Convoy of Hope, is quoted as saying in the press release.
It’s stacked on a block of rice and wrapped in seaweed to make Spam musubi, and sold at fast-food chains like McDonald’s in Hawaii.
Spam was first introduced to Asia-Pacific during World War II, a welcome substitute to meat that was increasingly becoming unaffordable or simply unavailable in the conflict-wracked region.

First the fire and now this?! Oh poor them.
It feels weird to define “truckloads” of product to be sent to islands
