I didn’t have time over the weekend to cook and prepare my weekday lunches of chicken and rice as I do most Sundays. And since I’ll be heading to Amsterdam this week hence trying to conserve money to accommodate the painful dollar/euro conversion rate. Now at 1.52 to 1 I believe.
So I grabbed a couple “Banquet” brand TV dinners from my grocer’s freezer. After mindlessly staring at the microwave for 70 seconds I examined the packaging before pitching it. At the lower left side, above “KEEP FROZEN” and “COOK THOUROUGLY” is the small disclaimer “SERVING SUGGESTION - ENLARGED TO SHOW QUALITY”
Enlarged to show quality? Really ConAgra foods, it isn’t necessary. For 99 cents I don’t need want a close up.
While quickly scanning for a photo I came across Sunny and 70s. A site by artist Jennifer Mazur documenting and detailing all things 70s. Check her work out at sunnyand70s.com
Enjoy her site. While I enjoy, or at least consume, my salisbury steak.
