My son and I [I'm 77] ate Dinty Moore Beef Stew all the time. This was some years ago. One day, recently, I bought a large can of stew and found that it did not taste the same. It seems to have a taste like liquid smoke was added. My son lives 2,000 miles from me. I gave him a call and asked if he tried the stew recently. He said that he had some and it is not the same. I thought that it was just me. Now I am convinced that the recipe has been changed. Why did you do that? Why mess with a good thing. I can't eat it now because the stew is not like it used to be.

It's been years since I've had some Dinty Moore. But recently I bought a can and it's much better than I even remembered! The meat was tender and the gravy is delicious. I would like more carrots, but other than that it was very good. By the way, my wife added half and half creamer to thicken the gravy up and it was delicious.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This was my first time trying Dinty Moore's beef stew. I thought it was good. It had good flavor and was chock full of ingredients. The beef was tender and the other ingredients paired well. The only downside, as is with most canned soups, is the sodium content. I believe it's around 40% of your recommended daily value.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It had been years since I have eaten this and the flavor is good, but there is just not enough beef in it. The small can states 2 servings, and I could eat 2 CANS for a meal. Good, but just not great.

I just bought my normal can of Beef Stew for a quick lunch and was severely disappointed. My favorite part of DM (other than the beef itself) has always been how thick the gravy/broth is. But, when I got it this time it was so watered down. My fiance and I were very disappointed. Normally I can eat all of the potatoes and carrots and when I get to the beef I can use it to lap up the gravy and enjoy it. Couldn't do that this time. Normally, I can eat the whole meal with a fork because the gravy is so thick it barely runs off the fork. If this wasn't a one-time thing and it's like this from now on, I will never buy Dinty Moore Beef Stew again and will instead have to make it at home with a can of beef with juices.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got to try this beef stew from Dinty Moore an man was i surprise this stuff was great . I dont no what was changed but i love it. I will be buying more.Thankyou Dinty moore for a great fast lunch or dinner.

Have eaten this for years, but it had been a couple years sce I last had it. Unfortunately, the real chunks of beef that made it real beef stew are gone--now, there's practically no actual beef, and what little there is has an unpleasant texture.PLEASE go back to the old recipe.

I grew up in the mid 70's and 80's and Dinty Moore was the absolute best...as have become more health conscious throughout the years; I and my wife moved away from processed foods, and the foods laden with sodium, msg, etc... but while browsing thru the aisle of my hometown grocery store while visiting (as I had since moved away from the small town I grew up in) I ran across this memorable, tasty reminder of my youth.. big mistake, huge! I have never tasted anything as horrible as this gravy train of horrificiness, 4 cans I bought to receive a grand total of 11 carrot pieces, 5 potatoes, and worst of all 3 pieces of what looked like previously chewed meat that was spit in the can.. I was so hurt, as I had championed my decision to buy this mess to my as very health conscious, wife and children. Hormel if this is your way of saving a few cents please stop, you are damaging a beloved brand that will ultimately cost you more than you are saving. I simply can't believe that this is the conclusion that you came to for something that was soooo good... with all my hatred a former customer! P.S. I left 1 star because there is no option for less..Facts!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new recipe takes a bit of getting used to but I love the fact that is now gluten and preservative free. The meat isn't the old pot roast chunks but rather meatball type chunks, this has a few old timers upset but I find the new recipe better, less salty than the old which was way too salty for me to eat by itself. Put this in a casserole dish and cover with some mashed potatoes and cook for 20 minutes on 350 and you've got a quick easy dinner. I've also used biscuits in place of the mashed potatoes and it is equally as delicious.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's definitely hearty. I microwaved it, which I usually don't do, because I swear that it tastes better when heated on the stovetop. But it was actually quite delicious. The stew broth was dark and meaty without being overpowering.
