I see Buddig all the time. Lots of stores around here have generic
stuff that's even cheaper. I prefer it to the jars. One place had
the generic packs 20 for 10 bucks a few months ago. One of our kids
can easily eat two packs in one meal.

I was going to suggest that, but I didn't know if that was the same kind
of beef that was being sought here. I haven't had SOS since I was a yoot.
I liked it then; I'd probably like it today.

When I make creamed chipped beef I use Armour. I think the Carl Buddig
stuff is softer, perhaps not as "dried" and salty??

I like it as my mother made- served on large rye & pumpernickle baked
croutons she baked up.

I think you're right. Much less salt. I guess if one desires salt
they could add it.

I like it on a pile of mashed potatoes.

I don't like any of it that isn't packed in the jars. Just doesn't seem
like the same thing.

I'm not sure I've ever *seen* it in jars, much less bought it. I'll look
for some, just to see the difference. When I say "jars" I mean glass or
plastic containers as versus metal cans -- same with you?

Glass jars, never plasic, and never metal cans or packets.

Thanks. I'll keep the mental image in my mind.

Uh...I guess that's the only place I *can* keep a mental image.

Found that Hormel product today at my pedestrian chain supermarket. Shit
was a buck an ounce. Yow. I was surprised that it was ground up and
fabricated into slices. I figured you guys were going for a
real-not-paste meat.

LOL, the small glass jars make good juice glasses. My family always had
a mess of them, along with the little hour glass shaped jars that small
frozen shrimp cocktails came in back in the 60's.

You didn't open them without a beer can opener's rounded end. Get an
opener with a soda. Get an opener with a beer. Get a dozen if you asked
from any food merchant in town for free. I just looked. I don't have one
now. Where'd they all go? If a current kid found one, would they think
it was an artifact?

That's pretty funny- we used the shrimp cocktail jars for juice
glasses!!!

My mom was a Welch's grape jelly fan, so our juice glasses were jelly
jars.

It's similar, and it seems some here don't like it. I grew up with
Buddig but I've had the jar stuff.

I've never used the Buddig shaved meat packets for anything but
sandwiches, myself. Which is not to say they're not useful for other
things.
