What you saw was right - they aren't called "loose meat sandwiches" because
they're fancy! You can add stuff like ketchup, yellow mustard, and dill
pickle slices, though. When I was a kid, I liked them with the mustard and
pickles....and the perfect accompaniment was a bottle of strawberry or
orange soda, with a chocolate - glazed donut as "dessert" ;-)
