Product Description

Product Description
A practical and lighthearted collection of 20 new recipes that make use of the world's most famous brand of tinned meat. 'The Spam Cookbook' includes a concise history of Spam, from its introduction in 1937, through its role as morale booster in World War II, to its immortalisation in song by Monty Python's Flying Circus. It contains a wealth of rare Spam memorabilia from the archives of the Hormal Food Corporation.

In the Queen's Birthday Honours, June 1991, she was awarded the OBE for her services to the art of cookery and in 1995 she was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Guild of Food Writers. She was recently the subject of BBC1's popular tribute programme, 'This is Your Life'.

4.0 out of 5 stars All the Spam on SPAM, 27 Sep 2005
By microfiche (Scarborough, ON Canada) - See all my reviews
I grew up with Spam sandwiches everyday. (Early 1960's) Hated the stuff. My parents must've loved it. Dad always got it in his lunchbox. I was told not to complain. My mother should have had this cookbook. We still would have had Spam for meals, but done in a variety of ways.
It's a colourful book, telling the reader how Spam became Spam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant!, 25 April 2001
What a great little book. Ideal for a present for any friend who is over 30 and remembers being served Spam Fritters at school.

I bought this for a friend's 40th and he loved it. How many of the recipes he's tried I don't know but I know he was willing to experiment.

Buy it and have fun!
