@TylerTV123 I don't know, but you might want to try and contact Con Agra Foods, or maybe even an antiques dealer and check it out. There's always somebody looking to buy stuff like that. You should definitely find out if it's worth something.
I was eating a can of chef boyardee ravioli when I came upon this video... WTF, I want some of that real spaghtti !! Not this canned stuff, but the real stuff that he made back inthe day!
MrPanchettahead44 What is so offensive about it. I think it is great what he did. He was the first one to market Itallian food. I think you should be proud that an Itallian American was able to make it so big and became such a loved American icon.
@MrPanchettahead44 What are you so mad about. There is nothing wrong with Chef Boyardee products. I live in New York where theres a ton of great italian people and of course some of the finest italian food and i LOVE italian food. I also love Chef Boyardee, have been eating it since i was a kid.There's really no reason to get mad like that, you make it seem like he is raping children.
I FOUND A SMALL FLATHEAD SCREW IN ONE OF THERE CANS AND I'M SHOCKED.THEY OFFERED ME REPLACEMENT COUPONS INSTEAD OF CONCERN,IF I WOULD HAVE NOT FOUND IT MY KIDS COULD HAVE CHOCKED OR IF THEY WERE A BABY EVEN DIED OFF OF IT.SPREAD NEWS
In a way, i wish he wouldn't have started Chef Boyardee. But then again I'm kinda glad. Cuz if he didn't, we would never know him... or would we? lol idk.
@MarksGirlsinThe480 ya. Mario Boiardi is my 2nd cousin I believe. My dad hung out with Uncle Hector at his first restaurant in Cleveland. I dont have any inheritance since Dumb ass mario spent it all on an exact duplicate of the fucking white house. He died a VERY poor man. He got my dad through some of the best culinary arts schools in the world. I wish i had known him. my dad has pics of him together with uncle hector. and dont call me a lier because who would pretend to be related to boiardi?
@MarksGirlsinThe480 No. As I've said before, Mario Boiardi Spent it all (Millions of dollars.) and my Grandma, may her soul rest in peace, gave all of her cut to the Independence Church where she lived (also millions of dollars) before she died. I don't get any free Chef Boyardee or anything. It's more of just an interesting fact to put on my resume or something.
Wow, This actually look good, Good old honest kind people. Unlike today it all about always about drugs and people killing like it all that. Fuck Modern day. Make me want to cry how different were are now. Alot of people would like that
@AOVengeance IKR, I wish it was like those cool cartoons, everyone being nice, not fighting, but now, robbers in fast food places, shit in a can, econemy, gangs, Damn man! Why cant we be in spongebobs world!
@AOVengeance Un No. It was illegal for black people to go the beach in Florida in 1956. Black people had to sit on the back of the bus in 1956. Gay people were institutionalized and lobotomized in 1956. Woman were not hired for most jobs (unless they were the daughters of the elite few) === and MILLIONS had just been slaughtered in world war in the previous decade - and the Cold War was underway in Korea. Nixon was Vice President. The 50's were not all fun and games and good times.
@rjpcambridge I know that but I'm talking about what happending in the world. I'm talking about the regular people back then. Sure I know there was bad things in the past like Black people have no right or Nixon. But what I seen and heard so far. It's terrible. 8 years old are already doing drugs and being in a gang. Kids that don't really care for what happending to others. If people back then were too see this crap, they'll be pissed off. I know I would.
@rjpcambridge And during wars, hey they serve their countrys. But today, theres just some people in the world who rather fight for something else other then america. So what im saying is yes you're right back then was kinda a bad place to be. But people back then were alot better then now (without laws) Just my saying.
@rjpcambridge no decade was really fun and games.....but.... in the 50s there was a very low crime rate, low teenage pregnancy, illegal drugs had not yet become the norm of society, one income earner could support a family, the economy was good, very low unemployment rate, no hit songs about killing cops and smack'in my bitches. Every decade has it's good points and bad points. Aside from the racial inequality it was OK. (didn't you mean the cold war with the USSR?....not korea?)
No large scale church bombings of black churches..no italians or black people being hung in public anymore[at stunning numbers] but whatever you say..you can have your racist fifties.
@AgrivatedKillah its the same racism with different people.....muslims are the new blacks, we have terrorism now, As far as the racist 50s......you could say that about the 10s, the 20s, the 1930s, the 1940s, the 1950s, the 1960s, the 70s, the 1700s., the 1800s............there will "always" be racism in one form or another
@AgrivatedKillah Well now you're basing an entire decade on the actions of a few extreme white people. You're no better than the white people that hated the entire population of blacks for the actions of a few.
I LOVE the Chef's Meat Ravioli but always HATED the sauce. Than I found the Chef made the Ravioli in type called 'Overstuffed Ravioli with Hearty Sauce' that really tastes 'Grown up' and it ROCKS!
chef boyardee was one of the largest food ration supplier in ww2 he signed a contract with the army and navy to pack c and k rations of his products to send out to our troops and the alies,,I wish I can see what the tin cans looked like of chef boyardee products when he was packing them during the war ,,,wish I can see a picture of it,,
@Dolphindream15 More than likely they looked similar to the cans civilians bought in the stores at the same time, but probably with "zip tops" or with the little keys/pull tabs like you'd find on sardine tins, making it easier to open for a quick meal.
So this is a real Italian chef with a spaghetti recipe that opened a restaurant that become famous? Crap in a can for .99cents. Ask a real Italian or your cardiologist.
Actually, if you can find the CB canned spaghetti SAUCE, it is light years better than the canned pasta. It's actually a rich red, a little metallic tasting due to the can, but I'm telling you, it is nothing like the fluorescent orange stuff in Beefaroni or X-Men pasta. Seriously, try it.
@Mega911Gamer I was thinking the exact same thing. That whole platter that would feed a family of 3 in the 50's is smaller than today's senior citizens' early bird special plate at most chain italian restaurants. And that's AFTER the all-you-can-eat salad and breadsticks!
This was the shit in my house growing up. Every Sunday night after which, the ABC or NBC Sunday night movie would come on television....before we gotten cable.
@whoisthisguy724 I think you're right. It's awful. As a kid in the 60's my brother always ate the stuff. I hated it. All of the canned stuff tasted the same. Soggy pasta and bland tomato sauce. The only thing worse was Franco American Spaghettios. Those had a real gagability factor to them.
back when a commercial was informative and to the ponit instead of "look at what we can do with special effects for a reese's cup commercial" like it is to day.
Yeah, I don't understand why the fuck commercials are like they are now.
It's all just lies now.
I mean, I know you're trying to sell it or whatever, so I guess it's not wrong to really try and make your product look good, but commercials now don't do shit.
They're not informative and the feel obnoxious, like they don't have a choice but to use crazy graphics and stupid jingles to get people's attention. Ridiculous. This guy was actually likable. Not like companies now.
Goddamn that looks pretty good even in black and white... Chef would be pissed if he saw the crap that has his name on it nowadays... The shit nowadays is crappy noodles and worm meatballs but i still love the shit...
15 cents back in 1953 is about $1.20 in 2010 dollars. So its still a good deal but not as great as might have thought. And back in 1912 when the Titanic sank a dollar adjusted for inflation is almost $22 now :)
@Trastlol Yeah, people tend to ignore that fact when they talk about the old days. Hey, you could buy a new Corvette for $5000 back in 1970 - why wasn't everyone driving one?
Damn, I wish he would come thru my front door and cook me a pasta dinner.. "Hello? may I come in?" Hell ya! Spaghetti dinner for us all. Get your ass in here!!
I love the way his name is phonetically spelled on his stay-puff hat.. He walks in and announces himself, but maybe the viewers are left feeling like "Gee, I dont know..." until they read: CHEF BOY-AR-DEE. then the viewers are SURE of his realness. LOL
He was a real person. His name was Ettore Boiardi.
"The product line which would become Chef Boyardee began when satisfied restaurant customers began asking Boiardi for his recipe and samples of his ingredients. As demand outgrew his restaurant kitchen, he opened a factory in 1928, moving production to Milton, Pennsylvania ten years later. Upon mass distribution, he decided to name his product "Boy-Ar-Dee" to help Americans properly pronounce his name."
Mmmm. I love Beefaroni no matter what anyone says. Sure, it's not that good for you, but I don't want to live in a world with Chef Boy-ar-Dee haters anyway. ; )
This stuff is processed disgusting crap. I wouldnt eat Chef Boyardee if I were starving to death. If I had a choice, I'd rather put my fingers down my throat, purge up my last meal and eat my own vomit before eating Chef Boyardee. It is THAT BAD

Umm - world war 2 ended in 1945, christon0123. But TV in the 50s was definitely racist - just look at the Amos and Andy show...

What kind of meat sauce would be in that can for 15 cents?

@fuhrman66 The economy has placed the price on the food itself, not the quality.

15 cents a serving...assuming that a box would serve the whole family of four, it was probably 50 cents for a pack of spaghetti.

15 cents back in 1953 is about $1.20 in 2010 dollars. So its still a good deal but not as great as might have thought. And back in 1912 when the Titanic sank a dollar adjusted for inflation is almost $22 now :)

@Trastlol Yeah, people tend to ignore that fact when they talk about the old days. Hey, you could buy a new Corvette for $5000 back in 1970 - why wasn't everyone driving one?

I love the way his name is phonetically spelled on his stay-puff hat.. He walks in and announces himself, but maybe the viewers are left feeling like "Gee, I dont know..." until they read: CHEF BOY-AR-DEE. then the viewers are SURE of his realness. LOL

@hwoods01 the reason he made that name is help people spell it easieror somthing like that

No, it was so people would pronounce his name right.
There's a subtle, yet significant difference between that and what you're suggesting.
He didn't do it to look down on people and have them spell his name wrong, he did it so they would say it right.
There were hyphens in the original name, Chef Boy-Ar-Dee. It was clear originally that it wasn't an actual name.

He was a real person. His name was Ettore Boiardi.
"The product line which would become Chef Boyardee began when satisfied restaurant customers began asking Boiardi for his recipe and samples of his ingredients. As demand outgrew his restaurant kitchen, he opened a factory in 1928, moving production to Milton, Pennsylvania ten years later. Upon mass distribution, he decided to name his product "Boy-Ar-Dee" to help Americans properly pronounce his name."

The original Chef Boyardee sauce in a can was so good! I miss that recipe. Unfortunately they changed it to compete with Ragu.

what the hell happend to shef boyardee today. I mean back then it came with grated cheese, now it's just mushy pasta pieces and sauce in a can

This stuff is processed disgusting crap. I wouldnt eat Chef Boyardee if I were starving to death. If I had a choice, I'd rather put my fingers down my throat, purge up my last meal and eat my own vomit before eating Chef Boyardee. It is THAT BAD
