It really means a lot that you care about recycling

@Melissa – Well they may cost $2.78 in Kansas, but right now it’s a nice 78 degrees outside here in Hawaii. ;) …albeit a bit cloudy.

@Shannon – I’m sure they’re pre-cooked, but it kind of bothers me that the chicken doesn’t need to refrigerated, which probably means they’ve got some mean preservatives in it.

I think the chicken is already pre-cooked.

@GPX2 – If there’s actual chicken in it, I would be suspicious of it because it doesn’t need refrigeration.

@Katie – Unless you win the lottery or marry someone rich or know the president of Healthy Choice or know something about the president of Healthy Choice that you can use to blackmail the president of Healthy Choice.

@Natalie – As with most convenient foods, we usually pay for the convenience. Combined I think a box of pasta and a jar of sauce is cheaper than one of these, which makes me wonder why this isn’t cheaper.

@E – …and cereal.

@Shannon – I’m afraid of the chicken versions because they contain chicken and I thought chicken needs to be refrigerated.

I actually had this kind in Sweet and Sour chicken. It was good. I may have to try this one though.

I tried this and it wasn’t bad, but I realized that I could buy a box of pasta and a jar of sauce and have the same thing but cheaper per serving…it just wouldn’t be as handy or convenient.

Sounds kind of like Ramen that wouldn’t be potentially fatal.
But a lot more expensive. >>
It would be hard to eat nothing but this stuff too regularly just because of how much it costs. D:

OMG the General Tso’s chicken one is horrid, saw the review and I’m so lazy. So I picked up a few easy eats, but the General Tso’s spicy chicken is so so gross. Hopefully the other get better otherwise we have very different taste.

@Ace – I think Heat Eat Review gave bad reviews to 3/4 of the Healthy Choice reviews they’ve tried. I wish they would review these because I’d like to read a real review on them. ;)

@Heidi – Gotta balance the bad with the good.

@laura – It makes up for all the evil I do.

@Rick – Sorry, I threw away the container so I can’t check.

@Michelle – I’m afraid to try them because if they’re as good as you say they are, I will probably eat the whole box in one sitting, and if that box is from Costco, I am screwed.

@Kris – Bah! I guess when I snooze, I lose.

@Chuck – They probably. These probably do too.

@Orchid64 – I should buy some Healthy Choice stock or whoever their parent company is.

@Neil – Not Healthy Choice, Easy Mac.

@grumpyoldman – When I drained the water, I almost burned my hands, but I’m not very bright.

@Pastafarian – First off, BEST NAME EVER. Secondly, I will throw more away so that the Midwest can have the tallest mountain ever.

@Bryan – Tim Kang is too pricey now that he’s on a really popular show.

Some British journalist already beat you to the punch on the ‘Super Slim Me’ doc. She ate nothing but apples, rice cakes, and chicken for 2 months. To be honest, I’d rather do that than 3 of these daily.

if you ever get a chance, Healthy Choice makes a MEAN fudge bar. It’s like 90 calories, pretty low fat (From what I can remember) and are chocolately enough to satisfy a craving, and then some. I HIGHLY recommend it to a chocolate lover trying to shed some pounds.
My gramma and I bought a box at costco, and they lasted a pretty long time. EXTREMELY tasty!

Does the sauce have nitrates in it?
