Those are the basic ingredients for barbecue sauce! The “select flavorings” is doing most of the work.
I appreciate the variety, personally.
You can have hot dogs… with mild barbecue sauce.
Or you can have beef… with mild barbecue sauce.
Or you can have pork… with mild barbecue sauce.

Also because it was cheap and that was a golden age of mass-produced foods like canned cream of mushroom soup and tuna!
In fact, one of my favorite recipes was literally called “hold out til payday” and features a can of cream of mushroom soup and a can of tuna. You put peas in it and make cheesy biscuits to bake in it and it’s quite good!
This sounds awful… but equally cheap. Olives, wtf?
