Well...there might be a reason for that. Terry Gilliam, the man behind the iconic stop-motion animation that was a staple of the Monty Python's Flying Circus series, is actually from the state of Minnesota! As such, it just MIGHT be possible he brought some inspiration for the sketch.

Don't forget banana ketchup -- it was invented in the Philippines during World War II because tomatoes were in short supply. Turned out to be such a good thing that it's still popular there to this day.

[@Gungho73]

@@TheOtherBill There's a couple reasons. GI's in WWII often ate it due to shipping space/needs and as a result of this, ate it sometimes more then one meal. They were generally sick of it (especially post that war and the Korean war as well) so would trade with locals or use it with local products and it took off when the locals discovered how well it went with other products they viewed it as a catch all luxury. In addition, the Hawaiian culture now, but especially then, was very perceptive of their surrounding weather and food resources, so often prepared for economic or food-based disasters as if they were an inevitability. Spam became extremely likeable in that respect due to its shelf life survivability in various circumstance and again, usability in various dishes. Finally I'd like to say, Hawaiians often have a difference in their foods known as Hawaii and Hawaiian cuisines. It doesn't view dishes from other peoples, such as the spanish, phillipines, or even the Americas, mixing with theirs as "fusion food." For them, they would choose to eat something like Spam with fried rice, because its something that they felt they uniquely made/encountered. So there's a sense of pride amongst the Hawaiian people whenever they make their own dishes, even with others ingredients, vs when another culture brings in their food to the home islands and tries to incorporate it in some way with Hawaiian cuisine (back to that "fusion food" thing). Spam is just one of those ingredients that they feel allows them that cultural connectivity towards their past and future weird as that sounds.

Hungary is famous for Langos, which is fried bread usually served with garlic, sour cream and sometimes cheese, they are eaten in all successor states of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in Austria and southern Germany there are also sweet varieties. Now, I can see why Native Americans would see fried bread this way, I don't want to disregard their feelings towards it, but neither did they invent it, nor is there anything evil about fried bread. I wouldn't even be surprised if some Europeans showed the Natives that they could prepare food this way in the first place. This isn't meant to defend any crimes commited against the Natives in America, but it just goes to show how a misinformed video can shape public perception. And the next thing you know there is some dumb American visiting Europe and be angry with the locals for what they conceive a mocking of the indiginous population of the Americas. Believe me, things like that have happened before.
