Can anyone explain what this is, if it's good and how it's name got its modern meaning?

It's fucking canned salted pork OP. Not really much to understand. Hawaiians love it because it they ate a lot of it since canned foods kept better before refrigeration was a thing. And poor people.

Actually the Hawaiians are fond of it because of the massive military surplus of spam on the island during world War 2.

It’s pretty tasty as long as you don’t eat it all the time. I get the small 7oz can a couple of times per year and lightly fry up four slices and eat it on white bread toast with a bit of (fake) maple syrup drizzled on top.

the best use of spam is sliced in a sandwich with tomato, lettuce & mayo.
the biggest problem with Spam is that it's pretty bad nutrition wise, and that you will quickly get sick of it.

Spam is delicious and an American classic next to hot dogs. Cut it up and fry it in some oil, then serve with anything you want. You can also make spam burgers which are good too. SPAM tastes mediocre as a lone meat dish, so best use it mixed with something. It's also very salty and the taste can get repetitive.

Stop embarrassing yourself, zoom zoom. Again, question was for it's "modern meaning." It didn't start meaning internet junk mail until the 90s, and it's origin for this modern meaning was Monty Python.
