I was at a restaurant recently and saw a brisket sloppy Joe on the menu!

sigh.

My mom stockpiled Campbell’s cream soups of all varieties- mushroom & celery come to mind and put them in every other recipe. She generally stockpiled canned goods too - everything g er ate or drank came from a can- peaches, green beans, spinach, orange juice concentrate, apple juice, Hawaiian Punch.

Now you've got me hungry! My mom made absolutely delicious sloppy joes from scratch. Off to text her for the recipe...

(I'm not a food snob but Hamburger Helper/Maniwch/etc gross me out)

We make and love sloppy joes. We make them with a soy meat substitute but the full sugar canned sloppy Joe sauce.

I used to love shake and bake as a kid. In retrospect, my mother was a terrible cook who had no idea how to bread meat

I also love sloppy joes once in a while but now make them homemade and use a lot less sugar. My kids like them once in a while.

I also have tuna casserole, meatloaf, and chicken pot pie once a while. Comfort food and it’s easy on weeknights.

Homemade sloppy joes are great

I make sloppy joes - but not the premixed in a can kind. Very easy to make with Tom sauce, onions, celery, green pepper and much more flavourful.

We eat sloppy joe’s sometimes too. I make them from scratch instead of the Manwich from my childhood, but they’re a comfort food favorite at our house.

My kids begged to try sloppy Joes. Two out of three liked them. I hate them -- I did when I was a kid, too.

I'll throw in tuna noodle casserole.

I make a lentil sloppy Joe. I tried making hamburger helper like 15 years ago out of nostalgia and was grossed out.

We had hamburger helper last night though not from the box. And I have a few batches of sloppy Joes in the freezer!

I loved those as a kid. There were commercials and everything for sloppy Joe. Same with Hamburger Helper. Loved it! Shake and Bake, I could not get enough! Sometimes I do still buy it but I miss the hype of knowing other people who also had it for dinner recently. No one I seem to run into still eats these “classics” - yes, they are classics to me.
