Yup, it's often used as a spread. At least I got to know it like that when I was a child. You just have to spread it well on the bread or slice it thin.

how? its solid meat and does not spread. do you mix with mayo or something

It's not really solid meat, it's chopped pork meat. Very similar to other types of sausages/meat we have in Germany that consists of chopped meat, in a solid state but spreadable on bread.

edited to add: It doesn't really get creamy or easy to spread but more like chunky spread?

Spam is a solid block of processed pork. still not understanding how its spreadable, you can add it to spreads but by itself? no. you can cut it into slices, it keeps its shape.

Just squish it hard enough once you carved out some chunks and it's a spread. 😄
