Food it is! By Geniusofdespair


Since Gimleteye is talking about food today, I will too.

If I can't get someone to cook for me, I almost always make a frozen dinner. I have happened upon one I like: Boston Market's Oven Roasted Chicken. It is 390 calories for the diet-conscious and $3.69 for the budget-minded. You don't have to deal with snitty waiters or slow kitchens. I recommend you remove the dinner from the toxic microwave dish, I bought glass dishes for my dinners. I have tried Kashi TV Dinners but they are grain-heavy, no surprise there. For meat and potatoes you can't beat the Boston Market brand. It is probably loaded with sodium but I suppose I don't really care. Yes, I like eating out, I had dinner at PF Chang's last night, but the frozen dinner will do when I eat home alone.

How did I develop this ungodly taste for frozen food? My mother had 5 kids and we were latch-key till 7 or 8 pm because both my parents were in real estate. My choice of drink in those days was also frozen - orange juice - with a couple of tablespoons of sugar added. From that I am cured...as an adult I have never bought frozen OJ.

Culinary taste you don't have but you picked out a pretty good graphic.
