Aside from Pizza, I've probably eaten 3 frozen dinners in my lifetime.  They all sucked!

Have to agree stouffers ain’t bad. TGIF frozen are pretty good, Aldi’s makes a 16” 5 cheese pizza for 4.99 that is good also.

  I eat more frozen dinners, now that I no longer have a wife..for obvious reasons.

  Stoffer's Mac & Cheese is good stuff...I have seen their trucks pulling in and out of the yard at Empire Cheese, a local firm that makes what most consider a top rated cheddar...made with milk from local farms.

   I assume that is going into their Mac & cheese..

JMHO-  it's like everything else
They'll screw your health up if you
eat one after another.  I don't think
a couple a month will hurt anybody.

I only buy what used to be the genuine TV dinner type dinners a few times a year, but I eat a lot of pot pie, multiple brands and I fine Jose Ole Beef & Cheese to be quite good and affordable.

I do remember Swanson, Morton and Banquet TV dinners well as from a kid to today, I have fond affection for eating them, though they are not the size they once were.
Dad was not sure if he liked them but told Ma which ones to get when she bought them.

I have never home cooked a Salisbury Steak and never will but that is the one TV Dinner type food that I will buy the most often, it is a good as they get and that is pretty good.

I don't think I've eaten a TV dinner in about 50 years.
I did eat the pot pies about 40 years ago.

i used to like pot pies too. Havent had one in over 20 years though other then home made. Wife usually makes up some with left overs from christmas dinner. She even has a pan that makes 6 of them at a time the same size. left over turkey and gravy with a can of mixed veggies. Pretty easy to make.

Not much of any kind of decent anything
to be had here. There's an aldi's just up
the street, but other than the mex stores
that's about it unless I want to drive.
And they don't have much anymore other
than milk and eggs which the border jumpers
all buy their limit of. A while back, they
had to put purchase limits on several
things to keep the border jumpers from
cleaning out the inventory and leaving
the other customers high and dry.

Banquet is pretty much it for frozen
goods at the devil's store.
Every now and then I'll make a
homemade chicken pie if I feel
up to making a crust

I like the home made ones a bit better. There easy and fast to make with premade pie crusts and canned veggies and jars of gravy and you can control how much left over chicken or gray to put in. thats my main gripe with the frozen ones. There half gravy and little meat
