Most/All the recipes i see here reference Fried Spam, which is actually the only way I like spam.
Yep. Those of us who had SPAM in war zones ate it fried when the unit's mess was allowed to cook. It was the only safe source of protein that was portable and beat the C rations by a mile. It kept us from starvation.
The mess hall made a version SOS made with SPAM when bacon, sausage, dried beef, or burgers wasn't available:
-Cube SPAM and fry with onions (if you have them).
-Add a Tbsp of flour to the pan drippings and cook until tan in color.
-Slowly add evaporated milk while blending to avoid lumps.
-When the gravy is thickened to your preference serve it on top of toast.

I like Spam and Tofu over rice. Take the Spam and Tofu and slice them thin, fry them and serve over rice.
Spam and Tofu soup. Cube Spam, Tofu, potatoes, and carrots. Boil them up with spices of choice and serve in a bowl with rice.
I hadn't thought of tofu but yeah that would work.
When traveling I notice you can usually find milk, bread, SPAM, jerky, and occasionally bacon in the convenience stores of gas stations.
