My dad said once that he wished that there were something along the
lines of Purina Bachelor Chow, that he could just serve himself up a
scoop of some sort of nutritionally complete kibble to munch in front of
the tv on those nights when there was nobody else around to fix him
something.

In my opionion, microwaved chicken falls into the same category.

I suspect, though, that a prolonged diet of this sort of thing probably
leads to public armpit scratching and poop slinging.
