Are these refrigerated or frozen? Because I’m going to look for them.

Refrigerator- with a crazy long “Best By” date. They used to be by the salmon, but now my store puts them in produce. There are 3-4 varieties - Thai, teriyaki maybe, puked pork. All are roughly 2 servings for $6-8.

My house is empty and I went to the store to let myself buy whatever junk food I wanted, and then I reminded myself I'm trying to drop 10 lbs. And then and I remembered my days of CRYSTAL LITE LEMONADE from before I cut out diet sugars years ago. For some reason, it is a delicious indulgence at the moment and hits the right cravings. I will hide the package in shame before everyone gets home tomorrow.

Was it called Pasta-Roni? The pasta that came in the bag with the dried ‘sauce’?

Campbell’s chicken noodle.
And that green bean casserole made from canned green beans, cream of mushroom soup and those fried onions that come in a cannister. That was a go to dinner recipe for my dad when I was a kid.

It’s in a box. We have talked about our love for it upthread.

I buy Kraft mac and cheese regularly as campbells tomato and old and also crunchy taco shell— the meal kit

I do love ricearoni but havent had it in ages
Frozen pizza but never know which brand
Raos meat lasagne was a hit with my kids

Bob Evans mashed potatoes! Pair them with a rotisserie chicken and a salad or veggie and it’s a really quick meal.

I also love Rice a Roni! Have you ever made Rice a Roni meatballs? Combine the rice mixture with ground beef, roll into balls, brown in a pan. Add water and the seasoning packet, cover into cooked through. I’ll add jarred gravy at the end for extra sauce factor.

I really love frozen pizza. Red Baron and Newman’s own especially.

Stove Top Stuffing

We eat Rice-a-Roni maybe once a week. I’d hardly call that a “processed food.”

Definitely Top Ramen. I eat it regularly. I also think a lot of frozen lasagnas are pretty darned good.
