That might not be to bad if it were "real" ham instead of SPAM, "real" sweet
potatoes (steamed, roasted, whatever) instead of canned. Perhaps you could
heat them that way, but only if you like them on the "extremely crunchy"
side. But then again, it would not be as quick either. Sweet potatoes and
ham are one of my favorite combinations. I have never seen pineapple jam,
but I have never looked for it either.
