Yeah you can't microwave them got to put them in the skillet. They are fine for what they are and I buy them on occasion. Make a decent sandwich.

I heard the fda made them change their name from steak yum because they weren't technically steak or yum. But umm... was ok because that is most people's honest reaction to calling that steak.

awful. If I am going to make a steak sandwich I'll take the little bit of time it takes to slice a real steak.

Yes.
Sautee onions and bell pepper.
Steak Ums in....touch em up with a little Worcestershire.
Good in an omelet or on a sandwich

Probably haven't had them in 30 years, but they're just shaved ribeye, right?

I don't know what cuts they use to form these sheets of beef, but there's no way they are wasting ribeye on it. My guess is that it's finely minced/liquified round flattened out into sheets with a binder to hold it all together.
ETA: Nevermind on the binder. All beef baby. Surely round, but beef

Same here, except I haven't had Steak-umms since the '80s. Hypothetically, I could still like them.
I assume the local groceries still have them ... but they must be in a weird spot, because I never see Steak-umms as I'm shopping for the usual sundries.

Used to love these, but I haven't had any since my single days ended.

Do folks in Philly ever use them to make faux cheesesteaks? Or is that too great a culinary sin?

I use em in a pinch for omelets since I'm a low carber.
You can get a more local brand here though which I prefer over Steak Ums.
Some of the sandwich and pizza shops around here that are lower end aren't of much better quality.

i do all the time. Makes a quick lunch. I don't get them often anymore but when I do. Cook in pan, some cheese sometimes onion or pepper. Throw on a roll .

I use another brand and I forget what they are called, but...yes. Cooked on a griddle then broken up on good bread.

I wouldn't have either.
I don't completely hate them, but I don't really buy them either. There's an off flavor in there that I don't care for.
If I want a quick, cheap, hot, formed beef product to throw on a sandwich, I prefer to just throw some deli pastrami, corned beef, or roast beef in a skillet.

I just use 2. But, did you know that each "sheet" or whatever you want to call the frozen serving is actually 2 pieces? It takes skill, but I always split them while cook, so I have 4 single layers. Chop it up, fills up quite nicely.

if I go bread 2. Roll is 2 to 3 for me

I watch what I eat to the extent that subs are just an occasional treat type thing. I'm not spending the indulgence on Steak-Umms. NAY.
ETA: I practically survived on them for stretches in college.
