A can of Manwich

Manwich is the brand name of a canned sloppy joe sauce produced by ConAgra Foods, Inc. and Hunt's introduced in 1969. The can contains seasoned tomato sauce that is added to cooked ground beef in a skillet. It is marketed as a quick and easy one-pan meal for the whole family.

Manwich Heat & Serve was introduced in 2004. It contains both the seasoned tomato sauce and ground beef in a microwavable bowl. The concept is similar to Easy Mac.

The phrase most commonly associated with this product is: "A sandwich is a sandwich, but a Manwich is a meal."

Jingle

A modern commercial uses the jingle,

"Momma don't ya make me another meatloaf,
forget the Mac 'n' Cheese.
I want some fun piled on a bun,
I want a Manwich please."

Trivia

Manwich was also the pseudonym used by Mark Edge, a co-host of a libertarian talk show called Free Talk Live until May 18th, 2006.

"Manwich" is also a slang term for a sandwich with a great amount of filling.

On the show Futurama, Hermes Conrad and his son, Dwight Conrad, prefer Manwiches in their packed lunches. When something happens to their lunch, they yell "My Manwich!"
