I think the McDonald’s Is Garbage and Frozen Dinners, OMG! people should get together, they are a match made in heaven.

We buy them for quick weekday hot lunches with fresh fruit.

Anyway my kids like the Raos meatballs.

Big Ice.

Trader Joe’s has a few Indian dishes that are in my rotation. I do add rice.

There is still one frozen meal we buy...chicken parmesan patties. The kids love it and it's easy for weeknights. I don't eat it though.

what brand?

I was going to say that there are two frozen food items that live on my shopping list: frozen lasagna and Ikea's frozen meatballs

Hopefully we will all survive.

I will pray for you! LOL Enjoy...

As pointed out earlier, Costco is trash. You eat trash.

As has likely been pointed out to you many, many times over the years: you are unintelligent.

DP Is that an insult, really? If the poster is actually unintelligent, and many here certainly are, isn't that mainly an accident of birth and genetics? Perhaps a little bit being raised in a substandard school district? Mostly genes though. Which is not the poster's fault, obviously, intelligence is not like acquired knowledge, it's capacity to learn. I think you are being rude and mean to a person who has no control over their IQ but is trying hard to contribute to the conversation here. I think you should encourage them rather than trying to knock them down and make them feel bad. Given the bell curve lots of people are unintelligent but it's not their fault. They can't fix it. Have some mercy.

Of course. It's the most popular section at Trader Joe's
