The Great Sloppy Joe Debate
Sloppy Joes! They’re so meaty, and tomatoey, and sloppy! I love ‘em! Unfortunately, my husband is not their biggest fan. Because of this, we compromise and only eat them on rare occassions. Tonight was just such an occassion. I’m not sure what Andrew doesn’t like about them. I always toss a can of corn into the mix to sneak in a bit of veggie. Perhaps he’s bothered by the deception. It fools me every time! But, plop a scoop of that on a bun with a slice of cheese and you’ve got a great big Mmmm-Mmmm Sandwich right there!
The way I see it, Sloppy Joes are the perfect balance of taste and nutrition. On the taste side, they are delicious. On the nutrition side, they’re made of beef (meat and fish food group), tomato sauce and corn (fruit and veggie group), cheese (dairy group), and a hamburger bun (bread and grain group). It’s practically a food pyramid in a meal!
So tell me, where do you stand on this issue? Are you Pro-Sloppy? Or are you a neat-a-tarian?

Oh, I LOVE that song.
And I love Sloppy Joes, too. (And what is it with our husbands hating on the Sloppy Joe? It’s unpatriotic, I tell you!)

Sloppy joes kick ass. Tofu-joes taste like ass.

Ewww!! I do NOT like sloppy joes! BUT, then again, I’m not a big “sauce” fan in general.
