The [Green Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/punk-bunny-coffee-1) & SPAM collaboration is a limited-edition release celebrating the 65th anniversary of Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham. Created by Hormel and [Dr. Seuss Enterprises](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-eggs-spam), the pack includes two Spam cans with themed labels and a recipe to turn eggs green using spinach, parsley, and cheese. The playful packaging and concept bring Sam-I-Am’s quirky breakfast to life—and it’s available at select [Walmart](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spam-japanese-barbecue-sauce-flavored) stores across the U.S.

Alongside the product, Seuss-themed merchandise like mugs, shirts, and aprons are available for fans looking to bring whimsy into their kitchen. Hormel calls the launch “a nostalgic journey back to childhood,” while Seuss Enterprises jokes that if the book had a 51st word, “it would have been Spam.” Whether you’re in it for the novelty, the flavor, or the fandom, this unusual pantry pairing invites everyone to try green eggs and ham—from a can.
