A product that has been around since I was a child. great to slice eat on a sandwich, fry in the pantry. Take away camping as its easy to prepare and eat.A great way to enjoy some ham like meat the whole family will love and enjoy.

Spam is a well-known tinned meat made mainly from pork and ham. Short Review Taste: Salty and savoury with a strong ham flavour. When fried, it develops a crispy outside which improves the taste a lot. Texture: Soft and slightly dense straight from the can, but firmer and more enjoyable when pan-fried. Uses: Good in sandwiches, fried with eggs, diced into fried rice, or added to noodles. Pros: Long shelf life Quick and easy to cook Versatile in many meals Cons: Quite high in salt and fat Some people find the flavour too salty if eaten plain ⭐ Overall: Convenient pantry food that tastes best when cooked rather than eaten straight from the tin.

Have recently started consuming Spam and the kids like it. I cook it Asian style (pan fry/sear with sauces) and put in sandwiches for lunch boxes. Very tasty and affordable. Makes for a quick meal when one is short on time.

We always buy spam once our pantry doesn’t have any! As a mum, I’ve always chosen this brand- it’s just a classic. Very easy to cook on a fry-pan, the salty flavour is unbeatable and my kids eat all of it!

Based on feedback from various retailers and users, SPAM Classic (Regular) 340g is highly regarded as a nostalgic, versatile, and convenient pantry staple, particularly praised for its flavor when fried. It generally holds a high rating, frequently cited for its savory, salty, and rich, pork-based taste. www.petitstresors.com.au +5 Here is a breakdown of user feedback and product details: Flavor and Texture Taste: Users describe it as a savory blend of pork and ham with a "sweet, salty, and smoky" flavor profile. Texture: It has a firm texture, often compared to a mix between sausage and bologna, which holds up well when sliced and pan-fried. Preparation: While it can be eaten straight from the can, it is best enjoyed when pan-fried, baked, or grilled to create a crispy exterior. www.petitstresors.com.au +4 Common Uses Dishes: Widely used in fried rice, pasta, casseroles, and breakfast dishes like eggs or hash.

Availability: Widely available at major supermarkets (Coles, Woolworths). For those concerned about sodium or fat, users often recommend the "Less Sodium" or "Lite" versions as alternatives that still retain the classic taste.

love it! it is delicious when cooked over the fry pan, deliciously tasty when paired with cheese and carrots!

lana Tindle ✓

great if camping and packing long life food or if money is really tight, otherwise the concept of tinned meat is awful and I wouldn’t eat.

Ardis Shopper ✓

It would be a bit salty if you don't put any other things with the tinned meat. I usually put this tinned meat into fried rice with onion and vegetables which makes the rice more tasty without adding extra salt.

Zoey ✓

this canned soam tastes good. very convenient and easy to use. the can opens easily and the spam slides out nicely. the price is a bit ridiculous though

Stacey Cee ✓

This is the glue holding your household together. You don’t celebrate buying it, but when it’s missing, suddenly everything feels harder. It’s the definition of boring-but-essential—quietly keeping life on track while you chase the more exciting stuff

Gina Catalano ✓

my husband love this, he would eat every single day if give the chance. he toasts it up and has as a side serving

Louise Annette Dick ✓

I personally find spam to not be appealing. But I know lots of people enjoy it. Great for being shelf stable

Louise ✓

was good in a sandwich. price is decent. nice flavouring to add into lunch.

Celine Ozz ✓

spam classic by hormel foods delicious just add eggs or can be eaten alone, can be made as sandwiches. perfect for meal

john parker ✓

we love to buy spam tinned meat regular, they are fresh and good quality and we love to cook it with fried rice

Jane Ramos ✓

these are so good to pair with rice or made into sushi. without having to find the can opener with the ring pull its so easy to open which is so convenient these days. You can pan fry, sushi bake or Air fry either way, I always try and make sure I have one or two in my grocery.

Lee ✓

This is an family favourite. It taste like cornbeef but better. You ca have in a burger or with fried rice. It’s easy to cook just add oil , salt and pepper into a frying pan and done.

snowy13 ✓

awesome sliced and cooked with veggies or made into a sandwich

BO WEI HE ✓

Crispy on the outside, salty and juicy inside… goes perfectly with rice, eggs, or even just straight from the tin

Mark ✓

tasty product that I have been having since I was a little kid. every single tin has the same good taste.

CHUN HO LAM ✓

The iconic canned classic: salty, savory, and incredibly versatile. Fry it until crisp for the perfect breakfast hash or sandwich.

keira ✓

really nice packaging and great quality. you can have it in a sandwich or even as a side

Rach McC ✓

ew never, yuk, I brought this for my daughter and once I opened the can the smell almost made me heave, straight in the bin it went

John ✓

spam in a can. good preservatives to make ham last longer and very yummy fried up in a pan

Thida Zaw ✓

Not a big fan of spam and it's a bit salty

Suzanne Truong ✓

The kids wanted this to use in their sushi foe lunch. Was first time to buy it and was easy to use. The kids seemed to enjoy it in their sushi.

K ✓

It goes well with instant noodle. Best with deeply pan fried to crispy. Although quite salty, and high in sodium and fats. The classic one tastes better than low sodium or low fat ones.

Christy ✓

Spam ham is a tasty canned meat made from pork and ham, with a sweet and salty flavor. When cooked, it gets crispy on the outside and stays tender inside, making it great for breakfast, sandwiches, or salads. Its convenience and unique taste make it.

Manon Surman ✓

Product: Honey Ham from Coles Deli. Delicious deli Ham. Nice and fresh. Lots of flavour. Well cut.

"Classic Ham" can refer to different products, so feedback depends on the specific product you are asking about; for example, a 2024 CHOICE blind taste test found the Seven Mile Premium Double Smoked Leg Ham from IGA to be the best Christmas ham, while Coles brands scored the lowest. For generic "classic" or "traditional" ham, feedback is highly subjective, but it's generally praised for its smoky flavor, tender texture, and suitability for sandwiches, while some find it too salty or the texture can be tough. General Ham Feedback Flavor: Many consumers enjoy the rich, smoky flavor and appreciate its versatility for various meals. Texture: The texture is often described as tender and moist, though some users note it can be tough or dry if not cooked properly. Smell: A classic ham's aroma is often pleasant and savory, contributing to the overall dining experience. Saltiness: Some consumers find the salt content too high, while others prefer it for its savory profile. Examples of Specific "Classic Ham" feedback Seven Mile Premium Double Smoked Leg Ham (IGA): Awarded the best tasting Christmas ham by Ritchies and CHOICE in 2024, praised for its flavor and texture. Woolworths Smoked Sliced Ham Off The Bone: Described as tasty with a nice, non-overpowering smoky flavor and a fresh quality suitable for sandwiches. How to Get Specific Feedback To get accurate feedback on "Classic Ham," you need to specify: The brand name (e.g., Coles, Woolworths, IGA, a specific butcher brand) The type of ham (e.g., sliced, leg ham, pre-cooked, smoked) Where it was purchased (e.g., a supermarket, local butcher)

Boss ✓

love it. only buy when it’s on special though. the price is a bit high normally

Frances Argiro ✓

wasn’t for me but people who like tin meat I’m sure it’s ok for them.

Miki ✓

not bad, I still prefer the hot and spicy flavour. this one is good enough

Tara ✓

good old fashioned spam. goes well fried up. however for what it is, I find it is fairly expensive these days and no longer a povo option

Natalie Cleaver ✓

the classic ham spam is a good to in my house. it easy for sandwiches and quick dinners.

Louise ✓

The price for the classic ham is alright. Taste is okay, not horrible. was perfect to put into a rushed lunch.

Belinda Best ✓

Not the ideal way i’d prefer to eat ham. Not to my taste. Some foods should just not be preserved in a can.

Christine Ye ✓

Personally, I find Spam convenient and tasty in small amounts. I enjoy it fried or in sandwiches, but I try not to eat it too often because it’s high in sodium and fat.

Trudy Wan ✓

Made with fried rice, not bad, a little salty

Vanessa ✓

not a great flavour - not healthy at all. i would not purchase this again

Annieee ✓

always the perfect flavour! perfect for a quick breakfast. for when camping. when wanting to make something on the go.

mariza cejas ✓

for me spam is very classic yummy to put at the bread with egg is so good

Emily Dow ✓

My husband eats this a lot for an easy lunch. He enjoys it but I don’t like the amount of preservatives in the product. It is also quite expensive so we tend to only purchase when on sale.

Rhonda Hutchinson ✓

Had an odd taste, not too bad. Great to cut into steaks and eat with pineapple

Vi ✓

It is the only brand I bought. The taste and texture are good. Good for hotpot and fried rice.

Christian Daniels ✓

We like to add this on cheese & tomato toast from time to time nice little change from deli ham and the flavour is still yummy.

Stacey Cee ✓

Not sure why I love this one so much I’m all the only one in the family that eats this bland I am not ashamed. Always a good flavour ever when I have no idea what it is
