It's pretty expensive in Japan and Korea.

The only way to eat spam is to slice it very thinly and fry it. Then eat with freshly cooked rice. You barely notice the dog-food-fake-meatiness that way.

“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”
