Have to agree there. When I was a student,
I used to eat a lot of those type of sliced
formed meats, and Buddig was the best.

A favorite breakfast was a two-egg scrambled
omelette, layer of shredded cheese as it starts
to set up, layer of julienned Buddig meat,
then fold half of the omelette over the other
half. Platter as soon as it's firm enough
to move out of the pan. If I catch it just
right, the egg is still creamy runny and
the cheese is melted but not cooked.

Haven't made one of those in about 30 years.
It would probably give me gout now, unless
I prepared by not eating any meat for a day
and washed it down with lots of Old Milwaukee
non-alcoholic beer.

My parents were quite fond of Buddig meats. I am thinking they
are cured. I have not eaten them for decades.

While I don't believe I've ever had Buddig meats, I hadn't realized that
being fond of them was considered a sickness.

It's was a midwest staple. Maybe still is. I dunno. I grew up with
what was called "creamed chipped beef." It was just a can of
campbells cream of whatever soup with chopped buddig beef served over
toast or instant mashed potatoes. It was cheap belly filler and we
liked it as kids in the 60's. I've never made it with canned soup as
an adult but I've done it with home made soup and real potatoes and I
still like it, but deli meat is far better. I'm glad this came up
because I've got a big bag of mushrooms I need to use so later I'll
make some soup and we'll have is tomorrow or I'll freeze the soup.
Shelf life for mushrooms is so short and I hate wasting food. I won't
be using Buddig meat as I've got good deli stuff I the fridge.
Someone in another thread compared Buddig to Arby's and that's a
pretty accurate assessment.

<laugh> Not a sickness but certainly nothing to brag about. We were
shopping yesterday and they had Fiorucci sopressata in 4 oz. packages
for $1.79. I was curious and went to how much Buddig was. It was
$.83 for 2 oz. The impulse section worked and I grabbed a pack of the
sopressata.
