Huh??? Of course! While the uncooked stuff can be eaten, its not
near as good as the cooked and texture can be offputting when
cold.

I simply slice it, thick or thin depending upon the effect I want,
and fry it like a ham slice in a skillet. My mother used to
sometimes bread it with something before frying it, so it came
out like chicken-fried steak or fried chicken. I tried to simply
use flour recently, but didn't like it as well as whatever my
mother did. I need to ask her for her recipe.

If you let liver and kidney and such touch your pan, then there
should be no problem with Spam. It is simply a ham sausage
using a metal gut instead of the one from inside an animal.
