On a random grocery trip in Shopwise Commonwealth, I found myself getting excited over a freezer full of
microwavable vegetarian meals! Most of the items in the freezer were from Amy's. I was so excited to see the wide array of products they had: pasta, pizza, burgers and even burritos and enchiladas!
In my excitement I almost hoarded everything-- well, actually I did at first. Except I saw the price on each and I had to return most of the items. Lol! :) I did however get a couple of stuff to try, one of which is the Broccoli & Cheese Pocket Sandwich.
 |
| This one costs 199.00php and contains one sandwich pocket |
 |
| The instructions on the box was very easy: take it out, pop it in microwave for 2-3 minutes. That's it! |
The 3 minutes felt like eternity! I was so excited to try it! I love broccoli-- add to that some really good cheese and what do you have? A meal that could send me to food heaven! Nom nom nom!
Tick-tock-tick-tock and thennnnn BEEP! It's done!
 |
| Here you have it! Ta-dah!--err--? What is that? |
It doesn't even look half as pretty as the picture on the box! :( Still, still, the true verdict is in the taste! So how was the first bite? Total blah.
I'm so sad :( I really thought I found my best-est microwable buddy in Amy but alas! Our tastes differ by a mile. I didn't like it at all :(
"Instant" vegetarian meals constantly fail me but I'm not losing hope! I'm sure one of these days, I'd chance upon a freezer full of really good microwavable vegetarian options--until then, I'd have to be more creative in preparing my meals each day. *sigh
aww, what a let down. very pricey too. hot pockets are nowhere near that price. i used to buy my vegan fare near my place at vegefoods. not very good but convenient :)
ReplyDeleteOh gosh I am addicted to microwave food. Definitely need to try these out :)

boat ride through the sky
@fashioneggplant: total letdown :( I get what you mean by getting non-so-tasty food just because it'convenient. but I think vegefood is not that bad co'z if it was you won't go back (well, at least I won't :P)
ReplyDelete@belly b: oh please don't. haha, I don't recommend it
@gela: yes, the picture on the box fooled me too. So sad :(
