Spam has expanded its portfolio with the launch of Spam Gochujang, a new Korean-inspired variant of its Chopped Pork and Ham, available in Asda stores nationwide from July 2026.

The new flavour combines Spam’s blend of shoulder pork and leg ham with fermented spicy red chilli paste, tapping into the continued popularity of Korean cuisine in the UK.

Gochujang, a fermented Korean chilli paste, is a staple ingredient in Korean cooking and is known for its combination of heat, sweetness and fermented umami. Spam said the new variant is designed to offer consumers a versatile ingredient for meals and snacks across multiple occasions.

Available in a 340g can, Spam Gochujang has an RRP of £3.24 and is positioned as a flexible ingredient that can be sliced, diced, grilled or fried. According to the brand, each can provides up to six servings.

The launch adds a globally inspired flavour to Spam's portfolio as food manufacturers and brands continue to explore Korean flavours and fermented ingredients in mainstream products.
