Holly Willoughby admitted she was about to throw up after her This Morning co-host Phillip Schofield happily ate a can of Spam.

Willoughby was left scowling as Beer rubbed the meat over a table, forcing her to hit out at the author who came up with the hack: “Rubbing it on the table? Bet he rubbed it over his body or something weird.

Schofield couldn’t resist taking the opportunity to tease Willoughby by chasing her with a newly-opened can.

Running away from her friend, the TV star pleaded: “Can you stop eating that please? I’m just holding onto my gag reflex I swear to God."

As the pair moved on to host the next segment, Willoughby demanded that Schofield does not touch the Spam again.

Several fans branded it “too early” in the evening and “inappropriate for a family show.”

Willoughby did not respond to the criticism.
