quickly dismissed because of derogatory racial connotations However spic is also an Old English term for fat or grease Either way not impressive The name of SPAM finally ' 'came at a dinner party hosted by Jay Hormel one New Year’s Eve According to Wyman the dinner guest got a drink for every entry they submitted in the naming contest The reward for the winning name — $100 An actor named Kenneth Daigneau came up with the name at the party “Like ‘brunch’ Spam is a portmanteau word — a word that is a combination of other words in both form and meaning” Wyman said “Most Alice Waters is
