At first glance, one might assume SPAM® Classic is produced through magic. But it’s actually a relatively simple, conventional process.
First, the pork and ham are ground.
Then, salt, sugar and the rest of the ingredients are added and mixed.

Labels are applied and then they’re off to be cased, where they await distribution.
