Hormel Foods, particularly chili and Dinty Moore Beef Stew have been around a long time. As a matter of fact, Hormel Chili and Dinty Moore are 75 years old.

During those 75 years, the famous Dinty Moore lumberjack character replaced characters Jiggs and Maggie from “Bringing Up Father” in the 1930s, and Hormel chili has a long history of featuring stars from Ray Milland, star of “Copper Canyon,” appeared in print ads.

I learned to eat chili from my Dad. He ate it straight from the can, and it was also from him that I acquired my love for hot sauce as well. Now, my family enjoys chili, and it's great to have as an ingredient in hearty dips and nachos, especially during the cold weather months.

I was introduced to Dinty Moore Beef Stew when I met my husband. No idea, why, but I didn't grow up eating it when I was young. We enjoy it on camping trips, now and as a quick, occasional meal on the go. Now, there are lots of varieties, but we like the original beef stew the best.
