In the meantime, I present to you a brief haiku written for my dad, who enjoys spam haikus and had been asking me recently whether or not we have spam in China:
we do not have SPAM
we only have LUNCHEON MEAT
but it looks gross too
we only have LUNCHEON MEAT
but it looks gross too
(For the record, Kitty and I think that there actually was spam [or something like it] in one of the dishes we were served last night at a restaurant whose name translates to Real Love.)
I encourage comments to this post in haiku, whether or not they are spam-related.

晓平，
很多中国人喜欢吃 spam. Hawaiian food uses it too. It was a popular gift item in China years ago. I remember bringing cans of it back to Taiwan. There is a Spam museum in Austin MN. I heard it is a good museum. A distant relative of my husband invented it. That is a family legend.
