I don’t know who Alden is. Is that the name of the founder or the town where the company started or the cow on the box? No, it can’t be the cow’s name because it’s got to be a female to produce milk, and Alden isn’t a female name. (Spotted by Rachel C at Sprouts.)

  1. Those Sam’s Choice meals have been out for a while.

    Well, the meatloaf, pot roast and carnitas are. They just changed the packaging a bit.

  2. I like the Sam’s Choice meals. I recently tried the Pot Roast. The flavors were great. But not enough meat for a family meal.

  3. My husband and I picked up the Sam’s Choice Homestyle Beef Meatloaf tonight . . . Never again. The “5 oz serving” the packaging speaks of must be for the ENTIRE PLATE. There is far more of the potato/veggie mix than meatloaf and the size of the meatloaf wouldn’t be enough to feed my two cats, let alone my hubby and I. Never buying this again and now am off on trying the others.
