Food Ads Exposed: Banquet Homestyle Grilled Meat Patty Meal


I bought this meal because it was only 88 cents and the idea of a "Grilled Meat Patty Meal" made me laugh. Check out what it really looks like inside.
When I showed this picture to S. she laughed and said, "That looks like shit next to vomit." And then I laughed out loud.

The patty kind of has the consistency of shit and the noodles are mushy like they were half-digested, but really the whole thing just tastes like a very salty simulated gravy.

Wow. Perfect description. That looks awful!

First of all, what exactly do you expect for $0.88? Not like you should have expected a four star gourmet meal.

Me personally, I loved it. Yeah, the texture of the noodles left something to be desired...but the overall flavor of the gravy and meat patty were awesome.

Seriously, if you are expecting something of a higher quality for your taste buds...you might consider digging in your pockets and paying a little more.

I'm sure it's 88 cents worth of food. Doesn't mean it's fit for human consumption. If you "loved it", we probably have some different opinions about what constitutes "awesome" flavor.
