How do you make something "meat flavored"?

Well, as most of you know, my favorite topic is food so I figured I'd kick off another food thread. I was boiling up some spaghetti tonight and pulled out a jar of sauce and realized that it was "MEAT FLAVORED"?!?!?!?!? Talk about disappointment! How the heck do you make something "meat flavored" without using meat? Let's disregard RAMEN noodle flavor packets. Those things don't come close to getting the meat flavors right.

    I understand that Ragu, Prego, Paul Newman and Classico all pay Judge Dread 75 cents for each pair of his soiled underwear.

    Often the mind believes it is thinking, when it is only passing from one metaphor to the next.

    I use jar sauces, but never ones with "meat" in 'em. I figure it is better to just brown your own beef (or meat of choice) and mix with the sauce, add extra veggies and spices as needed. I prefer Classico, because they need less help, but Ragu and Prego are fine bases for adding extras.

    I also hate the word "meat" to describe the contents of a dish. For instance, I won't eat anything at a Mexican place described as a "meat taco", "meat burrito", etc . . . it always makes me wonder just what the hell it is. If it is beef, call it beef. If it is pork, call it pork. If it is a mixture of the two, say so! If it is dog, say so! Meat is an entire aisle in the grocery, not an ingredient.

    OK, there's my rant for the night . . .

    I don't know what the process is but my wife may have the secret. She's been passing something off called "meat loaf" for years

    RAMEN noodles should be declared a national treasure. They are best with a slice of cheese melted in them.


    NOBODY cooks this type of noodle like the Koreans. I would go back to the ROK just for the noodles and Kimchi.

    The Koreans have a brown dipping sauce that is hotter than hell. Made out of rotten fish or something. It is good but stinks BAD

    Ahhhh KIMCHEE (SP?). There are so many ways it can be prepared but only one that I can eat. I found a pickled KIMCHEE once with red pepper sauce mixed throughout. The pepper killed the nasty flavor. A friend of mine used to eat it in Korea quite excessively. He worked for the CSM who hated the way KIMCHEE made the Koreas smell. He ate it with every meal when he realized that the CSM would leave him the heck alone when it was oozing out of his pores. Yum!

    This is the first time I bought a sauce that allegedly had meat in it. If I buy a sauce with meat it is the kind with the spicy sausage in it. I usually don't get home from work until 9 - 10 pm so browning beef is just one extra thing I have to do before I get to eat. I will admit, though, that browning beef and mixing it in is the best way to go.
