At least they're real

On the back of Hamburger Helper it says,

“My delicious Hamburger Helper dinners are an easy way to please the whole family! Made with real ingredients, Hamburger Helper recipes combine perfectly seasoned sauces with pasta, potatoes or rice. Simply add ground beef for a hearty, home-cooked meal. From my kitchen to yours. Enjoy.”

One less thing I have to worry about: fake ingredients in Hamburger Helper.

That wasn’t very funny.

Well no freaking wonder my dinner tastes like crap. My noodles are plastic.


Changing my sig, because Wally said to, and I really like Wally, and I’ll do anything he says, anytime he says to.

Well, actually it was. Maybe you need some real food, Studi.

Basically Hamburger Helper is like most of the other “convenience foods”; laden with salt and additives and no simpler than just cooking anyway.

This from someone who grew up on casseroles made with tuna/hamburger made with noodles/rice and Campbell’s soup.

You know whats strange? Betty Crocker is fake, they simply made her up.

Yeah, you guys have warped me–ingredients is NOT what I thought this thread would be about.

Maybe so, Handy, but Sara Lee is real – and she’s Jewish! Three cheers for my culinary heritage!

The Pillsbury Dough Boy was real, till he was overbaked last year. One too many additive I guess.

Huh, she doesn’t look Jewish…

I thought for sure this thread was going to be about someone NOT getting breast implants!

I bet everyone who clicked on this thread thought so to. I know I did. “Real” ingredients huh? That’s a relief. One of the good scenes in the NL Vacation movie is when Chevy’s brother-in-law makes the burgers with straight hamburger helper.

I prefer “cheese flavored food products” myself.

You should see the ingredients list for Brisk Iced Tea. They need a periodic table on the back to describe what’s in there. Instead of a shelf life it has a half-life.
