Hunt's Manwich vs. Heinz Sloppy Joe

Maximumbob54 · Feb 22, 2012

So I rediscovered that I still like this since I haven't had it since I was a kid. I bought the Manwich Original but they had a couple of other options and then there was the Heinz Sloppy Joe. So now that I'm reliving a childhood favorite...

Which one is/was your favorite?!?!?!

I really had no idea how much I would still enjoy this....

Go with Hunt's. The other one puts money into the pockets of the Heinz-Kerry bunch. That's plenty of reason enough for me.

My makes our Sloppy Joes from scratch -- Mmmmmm

So I guess I don't get to vote...

I'd have to check the MSDS first. I agree with DeadAye about making it from scratch.

I may own some Heinz stock in my 401K, who knows.

I've never had the Heinz, so can't compare, but I agree with Paladin. That's why I switched from Heinz to Hunts catsup.

Still 40 years later I still cant stand sloppy joes.GROSS

I should have never read the "Jungle" by Upton Sinclair. I have never trusted processed food since. Knew a guy at Wright Patterson who would get on a frenzy and have homemade sloppy Joes for all three meals for months at a time.

I try not to let politics dictate my every purchase , but in the case of Heinz , I will.

Actually , the Heinz Foundation does a lot of wildlife conservation efforts.

When I eat a sloppy Joe, I get it from one of our local BBQ joints. Mucho better than anything from a Ketchup (or Catsup) company. So I vote "gross".

I like the Hunt's Manwich better my self.

truckemup97 · Feb 22, 2012

None of the above.

I remember as a boy when things were rough eating just tommatos on toast and that wasnt bad. Mix up a little burger in it and I still wont turn it down.
Years ago I was on the atkins diet where I was eating nothing but meat. I am here to tell you I found out I could eat burger longer than steak!

When in Iowa, I'll eat Maid-Rites (except from that dump on the North end of Waterloo). Otherwise, it's strictly home-made sloppy joes for me.

OK Hog Shooter · Feb 22, 2012

When I was a kid Mom kinda had a home made recipe that was much better than the canned stuff. It's just hard to beat home made!

DGNY · Feb 22, 2012

I have tried store bought, but not at all tasty to me. Homemade is the best. My Aunt Bud was locally famous for her Sloppy-Joe recipe, which used bottled chili sauce. Tried to make some S-J recently; and the chili sauce is greatly changed from the 50s [what isn't?]. Not to mention using 93-7 beef instead of maybe 75-25.

Regards,

Dyson

Sloppy Joe's out of a can?

Isn't that something akin to "salsa from New York City?"

Just kidding . . .

With an 8 year old grandson, I am rediscovering some of the "treats" from my youth, too!

cmort666 · Feb 22, 2012

I detest ALL "sloppy joe" type sandwiches.

If I can't eat it without fear of it falling on the issue of "Small Arms Review" that I'm reading, I'm not interested.

cowboy45 · Feb 22, 2012

Open face toasted buns with American cheese, thin sliced onion and homemade Sloppy Joe mix. UHM! UHM!
Dang, now I got to go to the store. Got to remember the frozen tater tots to go with it.

Memories! I can see the lunch lady with her hair net scooping that red gruel onto my tray like a scene out of a POW camp or the kitchen at Alcatraz!
