Exorbitant...
Japanese overpay for LOTS of American goods, which is one reason why some ladies in Okinawa want to marry/date an American..... Shopping on the military base, or having an American mailbox on base is a dream!
Off base on the Japanese economy, a can of spam is like ¥500.....

I've seen it in quite a few Hawaiian dishes, though. @untucked - Do you see a lot of it in Japan? It may be a side-effect of US military presence.. |

Japanese LOVE it.
It's the official food of Hawaii. I know Hawaii is America, but if you've been to one Pacific island, you've been to them all.
Guam absolutely loves it... I think it was Burger King in Guam that has a spam breakfast biscuit...
Philippines has a Spam store with more kinds of Spam than you could even imagine... Imagine Bubba talking about shrimp in Forrest Gump.
Samoa loves it, too
It does seem like island places with heavy U.S. Military influence love it most, but Americans don't eat that shit, lol. I don't understand how they could grow to love such an unpopular item.

Eh, spam isn't all bad if you cook it right. I've eaten worse.

Bought the iPad Mini 4. Already have the Surface Pro 3, so figured I didn't need the iPad Pro. Feel like I'll regret having a Surface Pro 3 and getting the Mini instead of the Pro.

I've seen some horsehide that is over the top shiny. I think for riding, the most important factor is the fit, and the leather must be heavy, as a garment jacket won't hold up as well in a slide. They can be a bear to break in, but a couple of seasons down the road, you just don't notice it. |

Bespoke boots are one thing but a mail order made to order is a big thing to do. |
