The word Spam is actually a mix of "spiced" and "ham" so, I guess if the chicken is spiced, it would be called spicken.  Hey, I like that word, spicken. Cool!

I've always heard it stands for "sending people annoying messages", but this isn't true.  Other suggestions are "sales promotional advertising mail" or "simultaneously posted advertising message".  Actually it's based on a Monty Python skit.  In the skit, everything on the menu contained spam (just like every time you check your email you get spam).

A Monty Python sketch featured a restaurant in which everything contained SPAM: "......spam spam spam egg and spam; spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam; or Lobster Thermidor a Crevette with a mornay sauce served in a Provencale manner with shallots and aubergines garnished with truffle pate, brandy and with a fried egg on top and spam". The customers do not want SPAM. The waitress insists that they have to have SPAM. There are Vikings singing about SPAM. \n\nContrary to popular belief, the Hormel Corporation has never had any connection to email spam. In fact, the initial spammers were known as the "Green Card Lawyers"; they posted the exact same offer of their services to obtain a US "green card" in every Usenet newsgroup. Repeatedly. Uning exactly the same text.  This initial delivery mechanism wasn't email, but it wasn't long before spammers branched out to it - more people, easier to do. \n\nSo, analogically, "spam" is repeated emails that you don't want but someone insists on giving you anyway.

I wonder if BoraBora knows what a SPAM violation is.  Oh well, I was hoping someone would make me feel violated today. ***sniff sniff***\n\nSpeaking of Yahoo cows?  Those are really big heffers!  A couple ton maybe.  Obviously to big to type on there own but still able to push the form letter button.\n\nI don't know about most of them, but Ginger is a pig!

Can you say "SPAM???"\n\nDON'T OPEN *ANYTHING* that you DON'T KNOW WHO or WHERE it CAME FROM!!! Does "STOCKS" ring a bell when you look at it?

It isn't a word, but dang. Wouldn't that be the awesomest word ever? (Yes, I know, awesomest is not a word.) \n\nThis ham is porkalicious! Yeah dude. It should be a word. Indeed.

Use of the term "SPAM" was adopted as a result of the Monty Python skit in which a group of Vikings sang a chorus of  'SPAM, SPAM, SPAM . . .' in an increasing crescendo, drowning out other conversation. Hence, the analogy applied because UCE was drowning out normal discourse on the Internet."  \nAn alternate origin is from the computer group lab at the University of Southern California who gave it the name because it has many of the same characteristics as the lunchmeat:  \n\nNobody wants it. \nNo one ever eats (uses) it. \nSometimes it is actually tasty, like 1% of junk mail that is really useful to some people.
