anyone ever seen this on the food channel?

My folks told me about it (they watched it on a food channel) but some
people say it's just an urban legend.

They had cameras in the restaurant, it is no hoax.

I never watch food channel so dunno.

But many restaurants buy the commercials equivalents of
frozen dinners and serve them up. If your lasagna or
coq au vin is a little too generic looking, that might
be what you're facing.

The average American is apparently OK with such. Places like
Applebee's are not going out of business. Ask one of those places if
you can see their kitchen sometime. You know, the place where they
reheat the frozen entrees. Americans get what they merit.
