Some would say a spam roll.

...a spam roll...

Sounds like an item on a Mississippi diner's menu. Have it with swayt tay.

Rockford (near Grand Rapids), Michigan

"You have probably seen Rosie's Diner before on television. It was made famous by actress Nancy Walker who played the character of Rosie the waitress, cleaning up spills with "the quicker picker upper," Bounty paper towels. The Paramount Dining Car Company built it in 1946, and it was one of their deluxe models. Today it is one of the finest streamline diners still around. Originally named the Silver Dollar Diner, it was owned by Tex Corrado, Ralph's dad. At Tex's first diner, "The Industrial Diner", he served a neighborhood kid, who liked to sing. That kid turned out to be Frank Sinatra. It was later known as the Farmland Diner. Ralph Corrado renamed it Rosie's after the TV commercials increased its popularity in 1970."
