Banquet frozen dinners are now down to $1.00 retail price at my local supermarket. I am very, very nervous about this. Does anyone know why they are so cheap? They taste pretty good, especially the mac & cheese and the fried chicken.

mass produced.... cheap ingredients.... fairly standard stuff. I mean you aren't getting goat cheese pasta with chicken, your getting mac and cheese with a piece of meat loaf.
Basically, you have a factory that pops that stuff out like gang busters. The meat is grade "D" which is one level from being non sellable.

MSG is a flavor enhancer. I highly doubt that lean cuisine has that in their meals, but they might, just make sure you read the ingredients. The only health issue for you or other people is that some people like myself are allergic to it. It gives me migraines. It should by no means encourage your body to gain weight :)

the small portion for $1 makes it cheap. How many banquet frozen dinner do you eat to get full?

...because they are disgusting. Try Stouffer's regular dinners or Lean Cuisine. They are pretty decent for frozen dinners.

that is a question best left to the food group, I like to call the hotdog food group and asking this group can sometimes lead to answers that one might find offensive to one's stomache and ears.
