I spent years where I was in a terrible depression and ate Hungry Man meals on a very regular basis. I still enjoy this one, the chicken with mashed potatoes and corn meal. I stir the corn into the mashed potatoes. The salisbury steak meal is also tasty.
I buy these at my local bodega about twice a year, now. Most meals are home-cooked by my partner, but she allows that I sometimes just want my crappy junk food because I grew up in the midwest of the USA and that’s how we ate. This is one of those “makes me happy” foods that requires no effort.
Disclosure: I also like SpaghettiOs
Edit: I don’t eat the brownie. I just don’t remove it and let it overcook and char.
I have a soft spot for hungry man dinners… I never had them often but even growing up they were probably a once every 3 months type of fast cheap meal. Tried them a few years ago and it was shockingly still the same, which I can’t say about most things 20 years later. I also love the brownie! If you use the oven it comes out fine and very crispy.
I mean take the plastic from above the brownie, put it on the counter, then put the brownie on top of that while you stick the rest back in the microwave
If you don’t have a utensil for subsequently eating the corn and the chicken with which to transfer the brownie, there are possibly deeper issues at play.
Look, I get that there are other alternatives than Hungry Man dinners…but idk that your comment is it. Imagine eating canned soup everyday. That sucks too.
