"Uh Oh SpaghettiOs!"



This is why I'm an avid reader of Dlisted.Com - because Michael K reports on the breaking news that others don't (or won't).  For instance, I lost a piece of my childhood when Donald Goerke (above), the inventor of SpaghettiOs, died on Sunday.  Did CNN cover this story?  I dont think so... but Dlisted DID.

Personally, my favorite "flavor" of SpaghettiO's was the kind with Sliced Franks.  Although I wasn't smart enough as a child to think of making cute faces with them...



I was always too busy stuffing my chubby cheeks to bother making art with my food.

RIP, Mr. SpaghettiOs Inventor...

  1. Those were my favorites too!! I haven't had them in a long time. I should get a can this weekend and see if they are just as good!

  2. I likes the meatball Spaghettios. Always have had a preference for meatballs over franks. Yeah, I totally went there.

  4. OMG- I fuckin' LIVED on Spaghettio's when I was a kid! I ate them for lunch alomst every day in the summer! And if Momma cooked something GROSS for dinner (like liver!) she would always let ME eat a can of Spaghettios, even though my brothers all had to gag down nasty liver or go hungry! I was ALWAYS Momma G's favorite!
