                                According to Hormel Foods, the creators of SPAM, the product contains only six simple ingredients. Despite persistent myths about its contents, SPAM luncheon meat is made primarily from a mixture of pork with ham, salt, water, sugar, and potato starch, along with a preservative. The specific combination and processing method is what gives it its unique texture and long shelf life.
