Forget Truffle Fries, These 7 Luncheon Meat Dishes Will Make You SPAM All Your Money
One of the most versatile yet underrated ingredients today, is the humble luncheon meat. Americans might be more familiar with the name “SPAM“. No, not the junk mail. As in the canned meat.
You can choose to eat the meat as it is, though we wouldn’t recommend it as it’s REALLY salty.

Thick cut strips of fried SPAM served with a side of mayonnaise. It’s a simple dish but so so good.
The mayonnaise helps to cut through the oiliness of the SPAM fries. But let’s be honest, the fries disappear before you even touch the mayonnaise.
It’s a little pricey at $11.90, but it’s so worth it.

This is the greatest piece of news ever. Every Thursday at TAP Craft Beer Bar, you are entitled to their free flow SPAM fries with any drink purchase.
You can also order the SPAM fries ($8) off the menu, if you’re not going on a Thursday.
These greasy strips of decadence come with a sweet chilli aioli that just elevates the dish to another level. If this doesn’t ignite a fire in your soul, we don’t know what will.
TAP Craft Beer Bar Are you getting sick of fries yet? Don’t worry. This one’s different. It’s still luncheon meat, but it’s deep fried mashed luncheon meat. Same but different. True to their name, these are so delightfully crispy and savoury, it’s just happiness with every bite. The best part? It’s only $6. Now both our stomachs and wallets are happy. Sinpopo Brand Think Doritos, but made of SPAM. A SPAM Dorito. A SPAM Chip. These SPAM Chips ($8.50) served at PARK cafe at Holland Village are so good and easy to eat. They’ll disappear faster than you can say “PARK Cafe”. PARK at Holland Village For those of you who don’t know, Musubi is essentially SPAM sushi. Because sashimi is expensive. Aloha Poké has managed to create these addictive little musubis, where each slab of SPAM is coated with a caramelised secret sauce and rests upon a bed of sushi rice. For $11, you get a serving of 6 musubis. Our only gripe? 6 musubis is not enough. Aloha Poké [caption id="attachment_31343" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] This. This is the ultimate SPAM dish. Thick cut SPAM fries piled with cheese, black garlic brown butter gravy (we know, right?), sour cream, guacamole, and onions. Honestly, is there anything better? For just $13.90, you get to relish in this sinful bowl of SPAM. Just looking at this gives us life. However, do note that SPAM WHAM! is only available at the Orchard Central outlet. Tanuki Raw Fries have never looked more outdated and our stomachs have never growled any louder. We’re going to get all of these for a SPAM buffet. Which SPAM dish are you going to try first?

At Don’t Tell Mama, the fries are served with real kimchi; none of that artificial kimchi powder you may get at some other places.
The fries are drizzled with generous amounts of homemade kimchi mayo, with extra jalapenos and onions for that sharp, spicy kick.

It’s definitely something we’d order as a meal instead of just as a snack.
