Hamburger helper is a boxed spice mix, you also need ground meat, then you brown the meat and add the seasoning mix. You end up with sorta a taco meat (different flavor of course) that you can then eat, mix with pasta.
It’s…. Fine? But it’s pretty depressing in this context.
It is a shelf, stable pasta and cheese mix that you are supposed to mix with a pound of ground beef to make an easy stove top meal. Tldr it’s kind of like Kraft dinner but different cheese.
wtf is a hamburger helper and how is it helping me making hamburgers
It…. Doesn’t help make hamburgers.

it sounds depressing tbh but i never had it so take my opinion with a big bag of salt
It can be okay. I like to add peas and depending on the type beans. Just to make it a bit more nutritional
Have eaten it. It’s depressing. I think it’s like 1600 kCal for the mix and ~0.5kg of Lean Ground Beef.
Edit: Big bag of salt included. You will feel bloated for days.
So it helps hamburgers?
Hamburger Helper is a boxed pasta mix you add to ground beef to increase the volume and “make it go farther”.
TBH, it’s not awful.
It’s because Americans on the whole think “ground beef” is “hamburger”. Like the lettuce is “salad” thing.
They need an anthropomorphic glove to sell them on the idea of adding a protein to a carbohydrate so they can manage to feed their families.
I only eat greens cause if I don’t that green giant will go from jolly to angry and nobody wants that
