Spam-a-lock! NYC drug store puts $3.99 tins of SPAM and $3.49 tins of HAM in theft-proof cases as crime wave grips Big Apple

One Twitter user noticed the policy, where the meat substitute is sealed in a plastic container at the Duane Reade inside the Port Authority bus depot
While this is not a city-wide policy or one maintained by every Duane Reade in the city, other products are often locked up at other locations
One employee at the Duane Reade in Times Square on West 44th Street said that they lock up ice cream
Many blame everything from 9.1 percent inflation to a spike in crime of 37 percent across the Big Apple
Some found it amusing or even insulting that the cheap cans of Spam and Starkist Tuna would be protected
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has promised New Yorkers time and time again that he will crack down on crime and even ran his election campaign on it
