I had a 2002 No. 8 Hamburger Patty for Dinner (Mrs. Housil works until 7pm today again and the kids prefered a pizza...

)
Can someone tell me why it says
Hamburger Patty on the bag but
Beef Patty, Grilled on the cardboard box
But it was delicious at all
with BBQ sauce on it (similar as Bulls Eye). The way I like it - not to hot.
It had the filled prezels in the bag - I would buy them here if available. My favorit snack "yummy"

I think they call it "Hamburger Patty" on the bag to make it sound better. I mean, what you rather eat, a yummy "Hamburger" or a plain-sounding "Beef Patty, Grilled". I think it's kind of like how they call the entree "Cajun Rice and Beans with Sausage" but on the outside of the bag, they label it "Jambalaya".

Good catch, German_EPA - I was trying to remember some of the older menus that had played loose with their descriptions and the Jambalaya came to mind. Looks like I might have been off with that one.

Great pics, Housil. You seem to be over there(In Germany). Why don't you try to hook us up with a few cases of EPA's?. You're an official guy, probably a conscript, otherwise, etc. Hook us Americans up, with some EPA rations.

Conscript?!
Well, the Army draft me but it was in 1987 and it was the German Bundeswehr
