Looks like a loofah...

oh hell naw...it was all about Chef Boyardee!

SammiJ said:

i like the plain kind for obvious reasons.

When I was little I LOVED Spaghett-ohs w/the little meatballs.


I don't think I've eaten them for about 12 years, though...

i dont like you anymore.

Don't go out and buy a can.

That is what I did, and I found the sauce to be sickening sweet and the noodles to be mushy.

Don't distroy your childhood memories like that. Stay away from the can.

FABULOUS hangover food, though.

I've never liked Spaghettios but I recently watched a program on On Demand digital cable that showed how they make the stuff. It was interesting.

Each can has, IIRC, a specific number of noodles in it, and there are 4 different sizes of Os.

Is that fascinating OR WHAT?

geekly enough, I love shows like that

Oh I do too! It was a fun show. It was all about how various kids' foods are made, like sugared cereals, candies and suckers, Spaghettios, peanut butter, etc.

I know what you mean.

When I was little my favorite food EVER was canned macaroni and cheese. Franco-American and Chef Boyardee both used to sell it, but I can't remember which one of the two I liked best. All I remember was it was in a bright yellow can and I thought that stuff was ambrosia. Anyway, around age 10 suddenly where I lived you couldn't buy it anymore at the grocery store, and so I grew up harboring these childhood memories of how great mac & cheese in the can was and mourning the fact I couldn't find it or buy it anymore.

Then in 1994 I found ONE CAN on the shelf at a store out in New York. I couldn't believe my luck. Of course I bought it and immediately rushed home.



I was sooo disappointed! It was mushy, tasteless, the sauce had a weird gel-like consistency, and it overall was not remotely anywhere near my memories of it.

Some things in life are better left as memories.
