'''Treet''' ('''Armour Star Treet''') is a canned [lunch meat](/source/lunch_meat) product similar to [Spam](/source/Spam_(food)) first introduced in 1939 by [Armour and Company](/source/Armour_and_Company) in the [United States](/source/United_States).  Sold as  "spiced luncheon loaf", it is made with chicken and pork and has a more finely ground texture than Spam, more akin to [bologna](/source/Bologna_sausage) or [vienna sausage](/source/vienna_sausage)s.  Like Spam, it is often fried or baked before consumption. Treet is currently manufactured by [Pinnacle Foods](/source/Pinnacle_Foods).<ref name="theg_‘It'">{{Cite web| title = 'It's flavourful as hell': welcome to Hawaii's annual Spam festival| author = Musguin-Rowe, Sam| work = the Guardian| date = 2017-07-22| access-date = 12 December 2018| url = https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2017/jul/22/spam-flavourful-as-hell-hawaii-spam-jam}}</ref><ref name="Lovegren2005">{{cite book|author=Sylvia Lovegren|title=Fashionable Food: Seven Decades of Food Fads|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fZIRc28P5xYC&pg=PT201|date=June 2005|publisher=University of Chicago Press|isbn=978-0-226-49407-4|pages=201–}}</ref><ref name="Neuhaus2003">{{cite book|author=Jessamyn Neuhaus|title=Manly Meals and Mom's Home Cooking: Cookbooks and Gender in Modern America|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=-XM19xi95uEC&pg=PA126|date=28 July 2003|publisher=JHU Press|isbn=978-0-8018-7125-2|pages=126–}}</ref>
