"beloved"
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.
It's a huge part of their culture believe it or not
And it's absolutely delicious when cooked right
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.
