Screw all natural and fresh, what's your favorite crappy frozen/packaged alternatives?

Got any frozen/pre-packeged food you prefer over the fresh made alternatives? I love bread. Fresh baked bread with butter is one of my life's greatest pleasures. But there is something about Cole's frozen garlic bread. With enough marinara sauce to sop up I could eat a whole loaf by myself. I think a lot of it is the crunchy texture it gets after baking.

These aren't crappy. But they're frozen and hard to beat:

A pan of sister schubert pig in the blankets or cinnamon rolls are hard to beat, bud.

I like a frozen uncruatsble more than a home made room temp PB&J most of the time.

frozen onion rings in an air fryer
frozen samosas in an air fryer

Now I'm not saying it's better than collards you've cooked from scratch, but if you sautee diced onions, jalapenos, tomatoes, and ham, then add a can of Margaret Holmes seasoned collards, and simmer for awhile, you've got some tasty, spicy collards in a fraction of the time.

I love making these from Pillsbury sheets, sausage and thin cut cheddar.


Love the packaged veggies from Green Giant.

I don't know about preferring over fresh, but Totino's pizza will always be great to me.

Bob Evans mashed potatoes don't disappoint.

And everyone thinks I'm gross, but Spaghetti O's with no meatballs will forever be one of my favorite foods. It's all I ate when I had Covid.

How did I never think about cheese?! I make mini pigs in blankets with lil smokies when we have parties. Addictive.

I was just trying to copy Shipley's and/or the various Asian places around here. We like mine better than both.

Joe and Nellie's lime and lemon juice for all my citrus needs in recipes, marinades etc.

I never use fresh squeezed. Good quality bottled is easier, faster and tastes just the same.

Very good, but the walmart store brand is actually better.

I'll add the precut breakfast sausage patties from Sam's. Tennessee something or other I think. Excellent and super convenient (great in air fryer)

I've been trying to make biscuits from scratch and mostly failing. I guess it's time for Mary Bs.
