Does anyone actually follow TV dinner instructions?

[JabToucher]

I didn't know that's what you lot called microwave meals in the states.

I like microwave chicken tikka masala's mostly. Most microwave curries are cheap garbage. But there's one or two brands that make decent ones.

By the way these TV dinners are the best I have ever tasted. I bought it because the picture looked good not realizing it was vegan plus dairy and gluten free.

Naturally I thought it was going to taste like shit but it was fantastic.

Amy's is probably the only frozen meal that tastes like food. Too bad that they usually aren't filling; I could eat two boxes for lunch and still be snacking in the breakroom an hour later lol

Every microwave is different. You must be one with your microwave. Once you are one, it is you who makes the instructions.
Seriously happened to me once in a 'bought a haunted microwave from a curious shoppe and forced to write TV dinner instructions for eternity, or at least until one of my bros who isn't turned into a microwave lifts the curse' scenario.

One of the most tedious things about TV dinners

Fuck sakes I just want to eat not read a book.

But most annoying of all is the part where it says "Gently remove brownie from tray and set aside and microwave some more"



Go fuck yourself TV dinner we don't have that kind of relationship. The whole point I'm eating this is cause I'm lazy and also don't want to do dishes. So what? Bust out a saucer and put the brownie on it? Fuck that I don't even stir my mashed potatoes

My brownie is terrible every time and I don't give a fuck, cause really I'm in it for the fried chicken

THAT FUCKING PROTEIN COUNT @Rex Kwon Do

Anytime I eat a Hungry Man dinner I just take the brownie out when it's ready and eat it using the box as a plate while the rest cooks. No way i'm dirtying a plate.

I might do some minor tweaking. I don’t always stir it and put it back in for cooking, but I cook it all the way through.

I agree but it’s perfect for a snack at work while on break.

TV dinner has corn and potatas in it

Fresh veggies, not that frozen stuff. They have a farmer's market out there?

I'd rather eat my TV for dinner.

For future reference, you don't have to say "vegan and dairy-free". Vegans don't eat dairy.

TV dinners go way back before microwaves. They've been around since the 1950s hen television became widely watched. The meals were packaged in aluminum trays and heated in an oven. Folding tables were sold to be able to eat while watching television as the sets were large and usually in the living room.

No argument to be had there. Solid response. 10/10.

Does anyone ever add a garnish to their TV dinner to be fancy?

I usually garnish TV dinners with a side of fava beans and a nice Chianti

This is why everyone hates vegans
