Well…I haven’t had Dinty Moore stew in several years…In fact, the last time I bought it was in preparation for Hurricane Katrina (2005) & we needed quick foods that didn’t need refrigeration. We lived in TX & Katrina passed around us, so our emergency prep went unneeded. Months later I opened the cans up for a quick meal. It tasted much like it did when I was a kid…canned beef & vegggies….not wonderful, but not bad at all.
So, the other day, I had a busy day in town & decided to pick up something quick to bring home & NOT cook. I don’t buy much canned food (mostly tomatoes & salmon, if you really want to know 
) but I made an exception today. Knowing Dinty Moore is gluten free, I grabbed 2 cans for my family of 6.
I took my first bite…Oh my goodness!!! What happened? It’s not beef chunks anymore…it’s this mystery meat “stuff” supposedly made from beef. Yuck!! I hate to be a bearer of bad news, but I had to let you know about this just in case some of you haven’t had Dinty Moore stew lately. It isn’t earth shattering news, but you really want to know, don’t you? I don’t want my suffering to be for naught.
Ok…here’s the evidence…see…mystery meat!!!
Gluten Free Dinty Moore Stew has Icky Mystery Meat

I am smiling readin g this. How many of our childhood memories turn out to be duds but those memories are still beautiful? There were certain pastries I loved and if I had them today, I wonder……
My husband basically has no symptoms which is dangerous because you don’t know if he was exposed. I am careful and I made my blog gluten free except for chocolate which I insist on eating with the gluten. If hubby liked chocolalte, I would make it GF also.
Bye Dinty Moore.
