Frozen dinners are very popular with those who don't know how to
cook... if they knew how to cook they would prepare their own frozen
dinners when they had time and fill their freezer. That's why I cook
many things in large amounts, I make my own frozen meals. I've tried
several of those commercially prepared frozen dinners, no thank you,
it's all mystery food, Read the ingredients list on those things,
lots of chems.
