Anyone know the shelf life of Spam? Seriously considering it for an emergency “food” store.

Per their website, they used to say the shelf life was “indefinite”. They have changed that, and my guess is because of lawyers, or who knows, maybe obozo.

But to me, it basically lasts forever.

I bought turkey spam but couldn’t convince my hubby to try it. How should it be served? Fried? Raw?

My brother and I spent about 8 years giving each other a can of Spam for Chrismas. Yes, that's the same one can of Spam. One year, I exepected to get the can of Spam (I had given it to him the previous year) ... and did not.

He had eaten it earlier that December in a snow-storm.

He reported it being no different from a fresh can of Spam.

FWIW.

Spam is a great food storage item. We by the low salt version and it is great cold or fried. We expect it would outlast us in SHTF scenario.
