The Makers Of The SPAM Brand Bring The Heat With The New SPAM Gochujang Flavored Variety

The popularity of Korean cuisine continues to drive new flavor innovation

The makers of the SPAM brand continue to bring inspiration from foods and flavors around the world with the launch of SPAM Gochujang flavored. Fans can now find this variety in an eight-pack exclusively at Costco Wholesale Warehouses.

Inspired by the popular Korean condiment, the taste combines spicy, sweet, smoky and umami to create a perfect addition to any occasion. Use it in more traditional recipes like kimbap, so-tteok so-tteok, or budae jjigae or put a flavorful twist on your musubi, SPAM and eggs, or ramen.

Gochujang, is a fermented spicy red chili paste and is a staple ingredient in Korean cuisine. The fermentation process gives a complex, rich taste that combines spicy, sweet, salty and umami flavors.

“In celebration of the love Korean-Americans have for the SPAM brand, we wanted to create our very own SPAM Gochujang flavored” said Jennesa Kinscher, senior brand manager for the SPAM brand. “This can packs an approachable heat while still providing the versatility and convenience we all love about SPAM products.”

For a limited time, SPAM Gochujang flavored is joining the lineup of the 12 SPAM varieties. Gochujang, however, will be sold exclusively at Costco Wholesale Warehouses and will be available while supplies last. For more information, visit www.spam.com/gochujang.
