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.

Format:Hardcover
I was very disappointed with this book. Firstly there were less than 30 recipes in it. Secondly you'd find better recipes through a quick internet search.
Waste of money.
