In 1926 the Hormel Company created a canned seasoned pork product called "Spiced Ham". It was made from finely ground pork that was seasoned and cooked right in the can. In 1937, the Hormel Company had a contest to rename the product. A chef named Keith Daugneau came up with the name Spam - a combination of the words "spiced" and "ham".
Spam can be used much like regular cooked or canned ham.

Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
