Look how far we’ve come
Remember when frozen dinners came in aluminum dinner trays and had to go in a real oven for like EVER?
And you’d burn your finger, sticking it in those god damned pot pies to see if it was warm in the middle? Don’t lie.
Still, I would rather eat either of the above “entrees” than the shit I had for lunch today. Michelina “let mama feed you” can blow me.
This isn’t half eaten either. I took the photo before I took a bite.
Not only is the portion skimpy, it tasted like ass.
Yes, this is all I have to blog about. Unless you want to hear me bitch because Karlene worked my ass to death over the weekend and my entire body aches.
Yeah, I didn’t think so.
Oh wait, one more thing. What the hell is Rouladen?
Scratch that. I know *what* it is. I can read a recipe. Has anybody eaten it? Does it taste like a turd? Cause…

I’m intrigued. What does ass taste like?
Oh, don’t lie. You told me about that time…
Heh…stuck your finger in the pie and got burned, huh? Yeah, I bet a lot of us have been there…
It sure beats sticking your finger in there, and finding it frozen (not that I’d know anything about that …).
I hate those little frozen “dinners”. They’re enough food for a babies and stick figures, not adults.
I’ve never heard of rouladen before now, but good grief, they look nasty. I’d never eat something that looks likes like a floater. Gross!!
Total agreement re: Michelina. Ick
From the lillipution portions, nasty taste, piece(s) of hair (found in a lean cuisine) and excess sodium content I tend to avoid the frozen meals. Scrambling for a quick, in-expensive (hot) lunch a couple weeks ago I tried a Tei Pei brand of frozen entree. It wasn’t horrible.
Rouladen is WONDERFUL — you’d love it, Syd. It’s a German dish — rolled beef stuffed w/ yummy things like bacon, onion, etc.. It sooo doesn’t taste like ass …
… unlike frozen dinners (I can’t believe you eat that shit).
I don’t know what Rouladen tastes like, but I’d probably try it. However, I tried Michelina’s one time too, and that definitely tastes like what I imagine cardboard ass tastes like!
I confess the first time my mother threw one of those little aluminium trays on the table and said DINNER…right after my father stormed out of the room cursing in German …I actually liked them…or was intriqued by them….but I really think I liked them.
You just made me realize how lucky I am to have a man who knows how to cook. Blecchhh!
We never had tv dinners as kids and they always held a fascination for me. As an adult when I’ve tried them, boy, what a disappointment!
out of the home country I can honestly say it tastes awesome.
Gotta do it right – good beef, good stuffing, and here is the secret: put a thin layer of mustard on the beef before stuffing and rolling it. Doesn’t taste like mustard, but gives the dish the little kick
You should try it homemade, with mashed potatoes and red cabbage.
I was hoping you would weigh in on this. For those who don’t know, she is German. And I would love to try it.
You have to admit though…it does look pretty turdish.
I’d rather have a Banquet Pot Pie over Michelina’s any day. That shit’s turrible. Rouladen is awesome if made correctly. It should look nothing like the poop stick in the pic you posted.
