The search is on for the sloppiest kid in America. BeSloppy.com launched a nationwide contest to award one messy child under the age of 10 with a college fund and the top honor of "Sloppiest Joe."
From March 3-30, parents can visit BeSloppy.com and submit a photo of their child eating a sloppy joe. Nominations will be posted online, and beginning April 12, site visitors will have two weeks to vote for their favorite photo.
The child whose photo receives the most votes will be named "Sloppiest Joe" (http://besloppy.com/contest.html) and awarded a $1,000 U.S. savings bond for their college education. Two runners-up will receive a year's supply of fresh ground beef for the family.
BeSloppy.com was created to help families put a new twist on an old favorite recipe, the sloppy joe. The site contains 16 not-so-average sloppy joe recipes, including Maui-Wowie Joe, Sloppy Cho and Sloppy Joeganoff.
"We know it's difficult for parents to plan different meals that their kids will enjoy. I've found it's much easier to take familiar meals and change them up for kids with their favorite flavors," said Chef Pete Geoghegan, corporate chef for Cargill, the company managing the contest. "That's why we've updated the classic meal to include ingredients like fruit, vegetables and even jelly. And the bonus for parents is more interesting recipes that are still tasty and quick to prepare."
A complete list of recipes (http://besloppy.com/recipe.html) is available online at BeSloppy.com. Visitors to the Web site also have the opportunity to sign up (http://besloppy.com/) to receive free "Not Your Average Sloppy Joe" T-shirts.
The "Sloppiest Joe" photo contest entry deadline is March 30, 2008. Winners will be announced in May.
