SPAM Classic
Product Insights
SPAM Classic is a 12‑oz (340 g) canned precooked pork product marketed as gluten‑free and sold at Walmart. Nutritionally, it delivers 15 g of protein per 100 g alongside 24.3 g of fat (9.7 g saturated) and 321 kcal, with low salt and modest sugars, but its high saturated fat, ultra‑processed NOVA 4 classification and the presence of sodium nitrite lower its Nutri‑Score to D. It can serve as a convenient protein source but should be eaten sparingly within a balanced diet due to its high energy density and processed nature.
