The SPAM® Brand Hits the Road with SPAM® Sushi as Store Availability Goes Nationwide

Catch the SPAM^®Musubi Mobile at select Southern California Ralphs locations around National SPAM^® Musubi Day for free samples, merch and more

AUSTIN, Minn., Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The SPAM^® brand, in collaboration with Kroger, is turning heads this summer — and they're doing it in style. Earlier this year, SPAM^® sushi products rolled out nationwide at Kroger's Family Stores, including Ralphs Grocery Company, and now they're hitting the road to celebrate in true SPAM^® brand style! Introducing the first-ever SPAM^® Musubi Mobile: a larger-than-life food truck shaped like a SPAM^® Musubi that's nearly seven feet tall — an unmistakable site for fans and musubi lovers alike.

In honor of National SPAM^® Musubi Day on Aug. 8, the SPAM^® Musubi Mobile will visit select Ralphs locations in Southern California, offering free samples of SPAM^® Musubi and SPAM^® Norimaki, all accompanied by music, outdoor games, SPAM^® brand merchandise, coupons and more.

For those who can't catch the Musubi Mobile in person, the celebration continues nationwide: SPAM^® sushi is now a permanent offering at fresh-sushi counters inside Kroger and Ralphs stores across the country, giving everyone a chance to experience this savory snack. Consumers nationwide can also get in on the fun, with a digital coupon to redeem free samples across stores nationwide now through August 9, 2025.
