Rep Power: 1 | I think that this would only appeal to the college kid or single guy. No thanks! I love convenience (like Birds Eye Steamfresh veggies) but this is just a little much for me.

Rep Power: 1 | Now, we have only a few seconds to smell the aroma of it cooking. I thought that was the best part of the meal was the smell you would get from the process of making the food. That anticiapation when you walked into the kitchen and the aromas that filled your senses, awakened the hunger pangs, and actually fulfilled a gratification that we do not have now, wonder if that is why we over eat ? (psychologist in me) I have heard that the best way to sell your house is just before you have an open house bake a loaf of bread, suppose to bring more and better offers. I understand in our fast paced world sometimes we have to run through life to reach that goal, but at what cost is it going to be. We used to say stop and smell the roses, I think we need to include food in that also. back to the kitchen and lets get cooking fill our houses with the smell of fresh cooked, baked food and the joy of knowing we did that. | |

Rep Power: 5 | Sauce in a jar, well, ok. But, frozen in a pouch, I'd say no to that. If I want sauce that I made, which I freeze, that's ok. It will still smell like my original and taste wonderful.

Rep Power: 10 | I forget which brand it was but they had a spaghetti and sauce thing that you could put in the microwave. We bought it once from Sam's Club. I only had one or two and then my Mom gave them to my Grandpa to eat and next time we went to Sam's Club and they didn't have it anymore.

Rep Power: 1 | Because warming up sauce from a jar was just too difficult  . Really how many more convenience foods do we really need?

Rep Power: 1 | Do we really need to be microwaving more plastic?
Thought we were trying to step away from that?
I guess the folks at Ragu did not see the news about plastics.
No thanks.

Rep Power: 5 | It was probably developed long before the warning about plastics made the news. I don't think it will be available for long.
