Introducing... Spam Figgy Pudding? The new seasonal flavor of Spam includes “fig and orange flavors,” among other additions, and has already sold-out on Spam’s website and Amazon despite launching last week.
In terms of the"why," the company explains its reasoning thus:"The makers of the SPAM® Brand wanted to create a limited-edition seasonal variety that captures the magic, warm flavors and nostalgia we all crave during the holiday season. And with SPAM® Figgy Pudding, the brand did it all in one can.
If you do get your hands on Spam Figgy Pudding, it can be fried, baked or grilled, though it's already fully cooked and ready to eat straight from the can. Hormelof red onion, figs, and cubes of Spam, broiled and coated with a balsamic glaze and a sprinkle of rosemary.
