TV Dinners

...are fucking disgusting.

99% of the time I'm a food snob and a really healthy eater. I eat organic stuff whenever possible, hardly ever have any candy, ice cream, or sodas or other things with exorbitant amounts of high fructose corn syrup. I don't eat things with lots of artificial ingredients, fast food, or much deep fried stuff.

Anyways, I got home late tonight, was looking for something to eat, and saw a stack of TV dinners in the freezer. I picked one that looked appetizing and followed the instructions for making it. While it was in the microwave I read the ingredient list. It had about 200 ingredients, most of them things like "sodium tripolyphosphate," "sodium biphosphate," "BHT [As a preservative]," "artificial smoke flavoring," "corn syrup," etc. After looking up BHT on Wikipedia I don't really want to do anymore research on the nutritious contents of the meal.

The potatoes were basically slathered in salt and fake butter, the corn was devoid of any resemblance of any sort of flavor, and the "chicken" was a chewy piece of processed shit that was drenched in fake smoke flavor (smelled like a shitty campfire) and watery barbeque sauce.

Avoid if possible.

I'm very sorry to hear about your potatoe catastrophe Javi - If it makes you feel any better, I just ate some Muenster I had in the fridge that gained a rather "rubbery" almost "tupperwarey" texture to it...

Sketch.

There are some good TV Dinners out there, You just gota look for the ones that you like rather then randomly picking one, For me, I love these Spegetti TV Dinners, TI usually have them durring lunch, You put in the microwave for about 7 minutes then its done, And it taste great.
