Negative!@joevol33 something you willing to confirm???
Did alot of hamburger and tuna helper in college on the poor student budget. A well as kraft mac n chesse blended with tomato soup and a grilled cheese. Don't let that one scare you. I still have a taste for that one.This would be more fun if it wasn't 17 minutes long. Holy cow. Several of these I never heard of, and several I remember quite well. The "SOS" and a few similar runny items I'm sure hit a surge of popularity when they came out in cheapo precooked boil-in-the-bag versions. I don't think anybody would eat Stroganoff for lunch unless it was the boil-in-the-bag version. The real thing is certainly not going out of style. I know guys in the army got plenty of SOS on uncle sam's dime, but I don't think they clamored for more of it at home.
Simliarly, I have to think tuna noodle casserole would not be on any list of "popular" lunches without hamburger -oops- tuna helper. I could be wrong.
And Bojangles.Heck, pimento cheese has made a comeback, if anything. It's on the menu at high end restaurants and better bbq joints across the south.
It's one of those things you can't be a spam snob about. I did have spam fried rice for the first time a couple months ago. totally addicted.We had plenty of fried spam sammiches as a kid. Slap some mustard on there and it was good stuff.
Here's what the internet thinks.important question.
when people say "sloppy joe" what do they mean?
are we talking a Manwich, all ground beef with two buns?
or are we talking a real sloppy Joe, where its beef, beans, and only a single bun?
SJ's to me are ground beef and a can of SJ mix off the shelf. No beans in my experiences. However...a baked bean sammie or a cold sketti sammie are fine quick snacks from leftovers.important question.

Made Pimento cheese a few days ago. Have Pnut butter and jelly sandwich about once every 2-3 weeks.Did alot of hamburger and tuna helper in college on the poor student budget.

There were times we knew money was tight. Many times growing up, we had the canned chicken ala king served on biscuits, or the chipped beef and gravy on toast for dinner.
Why would this guy think pimento cheese sammi's are out of style? They just a notch under PB. Jelly optional. Or a proper egg salad sammi. Still keep a few viennas in cabinet for quick snack but don't eat them much. The devil ham and potted meat had to stop a long time ago.
Maybe 3 or 4 on that list never had.
