The products (different meals sold on different pages) get mixed reviews on Amazon. I'll see if they're available at my local supermarket and give them a try.

In a similar vein, I tried Hormel Compleats last week, and I was shocked at how good the Chicken Alfredo was. The product is similar to an MRE: packed in a sealed plastic container, no refrigeration necessary. Microwave for 90 seconds or boil the container for 8 to 9 minutes. Compleats is 10 ounces, so it may not be a full meal for some, and it wouldn't be a full meal if I were active (like camping), but when I'm spending the day at the desk, it's a meal with bread or crackers.

I bought another couple of boxes today, and the expiry is November 2009.
