The classic cheeseburger consistently ranks as one of America’s favorite
foods. With all the cheesy, meaty deliciousness of a real burger, CheeseburgerOs
brings a flavor kids love to the SpaghettiOs lineup and gives
mom a convenient new way to keep her kids happy at mealtime.
“SpaghettiOs has been a kid favorite in homes for nearly 50
years, and the adults who enjoyed it years ago are now serving them to
their own kids and grandkids,” says Ed Carolan, General Manager, Soup &
Simple Meals at Campbell Soup Company. “Just like the original, the new CheeseburgerOs
offering stays true to our roots, providing a wholesome kid-pleasing
main dish that mom can feel good about serving to her family.”
A hit from the start, SpaghettiOs continues to see success today
with more than 120 million cans consumed just last year. The new CheeseburgerOs
is only the third time in nearly 50 years the SpaghettiOs brand
has introduced a new flavor. Previous variations include PizzOsTM
and CheesOsTM, which were seen on shelves in the
1980s. Each 15-ounce can is packed with pasta, an estimated 750 “O’s”
per can, in a delicious cheeseburger-flavored meat sauce. And, each
serving of these tender little O’s provides a full serving of
vegetables, essential vitamins and minerals and is low in fat.

About SpaghettiOs
SpaghettiOs original flavor was launched in May of 1965,
introducing the world’s first spoonable spaghetti to moms across
America. Shortly after, the brand branched out to include sliced franks
and meatballs mixed in with the circular pasta and tomato sauce recipe.
By 1992, Campbell made the decision to expand beyond the classic circle
“O”s for which the product was named and rolled out a series of shaped
pasta SpaghettiOs including Where’s WaldOsTM.
Today, various shaped SpaghettiOs are still found on shelves
alongside the original SpaghettiOs flavor.
