Hawaii: Spam

Enjoyed with eggs and rice, skewered and deep-fried, or even macaroni and cheese, Spam is a fan favorite on this island state, and logistically is a great staple to have since it could likely survive the world ending. Hawaiians are the second largest consumers of Spam in the world, right behind Guam.
Originally brought to Hawaii as a source of protein for locals after fishing around the islands was prohibited during World War II, Spam marks its territory in Hawaiian households and on local menus throughout the islands.
