A Tribute to Spam, the Meat

Visitors enter the museum, which is located at 1937 Spam Blvd., through a wall o’ Spam, a display of nearly 3,500 cans of the pork luncheon meat. A sign by the wall helpfully notes that if you manage to restrict yourself to eating only one can of Spam a day, the contents of the wall could feed you for 10 years. Since Spam has a shelf life of several years, this isn’t as far-fetched as it may sound. —Michelle DelioA Tribute to Spam, the Meat  (Wired)

    I believe it was cans of "SMEAT" in Waterworld.
