Geez Andy, you couldn't have expected that to be even halfway
appetizing, just reading about it made my stomach lurch <g>
Reminds me of those gawd-awful "Steak-Ums" that have been on the
market for as long as I can remember. I bought some back in the 80's,
and can still recall with clarity the shudder that arose when I tasted
those abominations. Live and learn (I'm glad I lived!). Who in the
heck buys those things? And they aren't exactly cheap, either.
You seem to enjoy crappy processed foods in the morning, have you ever
considered Hot Pockets? <weeeink!>
Have a great holiday, Andy.
Kinda akin to the cyberpussie, e.g. you pay a LOT for the low - priced
"spread"...
;-P

Puts the term "dead spread" in a whole new light, eh?

I believe that for every crappy grocery store product with an actual
persons name on it, there is an actual person somewhere who once made
a spectacularly good product that got turned into a cruel mockery of
itself in the name of mass production and cost cutting. I always
wonder what Chef Boyardee would think of that Nacho Twisteroni or
Chili Cheese Dog crap that they sell with his picture on it. Does
Michelina know what they've done to her swedish meatball recipe? Is
there a Jeno out there somewhere sitting in a tiny apartment, still
mad as hell about what was done to his incredible pizza recipe?
Colonel Sanders spent his last years cursing the Hublein Corporation
for dicking around with his gravy recipe so it's definitely a common
practice to put more emphasis on a famous name than on the product
that made the name famous in the first place.

I haven't tried Tony Luke's frozen cheese steaks, but I can't imagine
why I would ever want to. Thanks for the warning though. Steak Um also
has a frozen cheese steak. I don't get it though. Why bother?
Even if you're in a hurry, it takes but two minutes to put some minute
steak or Steak Um steaks and any extras you want, such as onions on a
roll and nuke it. A nuked cheese steak is surprisingly good.
I've always liked Steak Ums, plus fried onions and green peppers, on a
long Italian roll.
