Will I get accused of treason if I say I’d be down to try it?

You know your government better than me 
No such thing as treason in the country that gave us Caligula and Julius Caesar.
Froot loops are ideal post workout carbs. That pizza is basically health food.
Also, fun fact: it’s spelled “froot” instead of “fruit” because there is legally nothing in it close enough to resembling “fruit” to allow for the usage of that word. Look for that stuff whenever you see “fun” spellings of food.

I remember trying them once three years ago (somehow managed to find them at a store), and reading the ingredients on the back of the box, only to say: well, where’s the fruit?
They taste great tho, haha

I once saw a package of “chikin’ wingz” for sale. I was about tempted to try them as part of some sort of “Fear Factor”-esque challenge.

Well it does have cream cheese and vanilla icing. How bad could it be?

The company I work for sells “Chick’n and Stuff’n” sandwiches. As part of their Vegan range. They also sell “D’uk and Hoi sin” wraps.

I’m not going to call that pizza, but I probably wouldn’t pass it up if it were at a kids birthday party or something.
And no, that is not the box from one sticking out of my garbage can. That’s a uh, Hmmm… Oh! Look the first Bluejay of spring!
The whole kids section in the freezer aisles is great for these.

Man, I remember going through the freezer aisle one day thinking I was going to get my kid “a treat” by finding an awesome microwave dinner like I remember having as a kid.
After looking at them all, I realized that my “awesome microwave dinners” were definitely cases of my parents totally phoning it in. In the amount of time and effort it took to make one, I could have come up with ANYTHING better for my kid to eat that didn’t have them take in 4x their RDA of sodium.
Kids get all the good stuff too.
Dino chikn tenders. He looked at it like it came from Mars! Would NOT even take a bite

Kids are so much smarter than us. Mine wanted NOTHING to do with their 1st birthday cake. The human body instinctively KNOWS that this is NOT stuff we should be eating: we have to condition ourselves for it.
I still am blown away by my kid’s restraint. They’ll be given a cupcake, eat about 1/3 of it, say “I’m done” and leave the table. That NEVER happened with me. Along with always cleaning my plate, I was one of 3 men in the family: eating got competitive! I’m still the fastest eater at any table on any given day.

I gave those a shot. They got the same response from my kid.
In a single serving, what ever that may be.
We had those old Swanson TV dinners. I swear those things were made up of what ever solid waste material was left over from the 70’s ugly furniture industry. Just salted, bonded and throw some pie goop in the corner for good measure.
I’m surprised bomb sniffing dogs don’t bark at people who ate that crap. “He’s good, let him through. That’s just solvent from dinner in 1981”.

I remember the ‘Mexican’ dinners or fried chicken ones when the tray was metal and took like an hour in the oven.

I confess that I sometimes divide leg day into two consecutive days: left leg first day and right leg the second. I do not believe this little known advantage of single leg training has ever been documented, until now.

Yeah! And they had that naugahyde cover that you poke holes in one section, remove the other, and leave the vegetables intact.

Exactly! We didn’t get them very often so it was a “treat”. Can still remember asking mom or dad, is it done yet? Seemed like it took forever!

And looking forward to parents going out - with babysitter (usually about 5 years older and no car) making fish sticks and tater tots or pizza rolls… top quality grub

You must have been uptown. Never ate a fish stick until I was an adult, much less pizza roĺls. My dad must have deemed them too expensive… lol
I do remember in the school cafeteria we had fish portion on Friday. We all called it fish poison! Mom knew every Friday she had to pack a lunch.
I just wonder about the science involved where you eat the TV dinner and the meat is still frozen and takes you like an hour to saw through with your plastic silverware yet, when you get to the dessert, it’s still nuclear hot in the center and burns the holy hell out of your mouth.
