Luncheon Meat Cheese Melts

Luncheon Meat Cheese Melts

Luncheon meat, like spam, is processed meat that is cheap, filling, and has a long shelf life. Although they often get a bad rap, both are true business success stories. Spam first became a hit in the US during the Great Depression and then in Asia after World War II. It was an accessible, affordable alternative to fresh meat during difficult times. Its popularity remained due to the simplicity of using the product. Spam usually contains all Pork, but Luncheon meat can be chicken or beef too. We can find Halal Luncheon meat easily in Asia. In Singapore, luncheon meat is a staple in many households. Something savory that is ready to be consumed straight from the can, but most prefer to gently cook it before consumption. It goes well with rice, and many will make quick fried rice using luncheon meat… To many Singaporeans, luncheon meat is a hearty and handy pantry staple that brings back a sense of nostalgia.

Here, we use Chicken Luncheon meat to make these Luncheon Meat Cheese Melts.
