[QUOTE]And besides, everyone else makes stinky Lean Cuisine chemical-smelling garbage, so they have no right to complain." They just kind of lowered their eyes and said "We usually have Lean Cuisines for lunch at work."[/QUOTE]
Oh god, that smell is just foul. And it lingers. And it isn't really a food smell.
The Lean Cuisine parade at work is horrifying. Beyond the smell, they just look atrocious. Really? You want to eat that sad looking garbage? Mmmmmkay then.

Yeah people at my work are always commenting on my food and how good it looks while they tear open their boxes of frozen microwaveable pasta from TJs. And its just leftovers! Its not like im cooking a steak fresh just for lunch every day. I suggest that they could do the same thing i do--cook real food for dinner and bring in the leftovers for lunch--and they shrug it off at best, or seem perplexed at worst.
I feel like somehow, our culture seems to have started to be turned off to the idea of leftovers, probably cause were trained to think in terms of "single serving" portions of prepackaged things. Not surprising that the food industry would encourage this, since they dont get more money from us if were eating leftovers (kinda like how my company, a textbook publishing company, hates used books in the educational market and specifically designs college books to be flimsy so they fall apart faster).

Argh! I saw that before, a while back, and I felt so bad for her. I kept wanting to scream out "Please! Have a steak instead! It's easier and you'll feel so much better!"
I quit after adding the vinegar. Sweetened, condensed milk AND sugar? Are we making a dessert or a side-dish here?

But there was an entire pint of mayonnaise too...
It was a macaroni salad STEW... it was so wet and sloppy.
Bleeeeehhhhhh..... :(
I don't think I've ever eaten macaroni salad in my life, and now I don't ever want to. Not that I did before, but now I want to even less.

I doubt you could taste the veg in the stew either what with the huge amounts of everything else.
