Yeah. I remember the last time they tried to ban ready meals. We are a nation of nothing. No housing, no food, no nothing - the ultimate austerity.
My only wish is that the VPN I have to use to even browse steam workshop also physically transported me to Germany or France or something.

Ready meals are unhealthy, not hugely tasty, and more expensive than making it yourself.

Yes. You know what they are though? Fast. That’s kinda the point. I can throw one of these in during a meeting and just leave it in the microwave, then consume the slop, the whole thing taking maybe 15 mins at most, with the vast majority of that time me still being free to do something else while it’s cooking.

Sure, but you could instead make a giant pan of e.g. spag bol one evening, put in individual tupperware tubs and freeze them. Then bring into work as an when. Saves umpteen trips to the shops.
I don’t mean to deride them in every circumstance - I probably buy them 3 or 4 times a year when I haven’t been able to shop/cook for some reason. But if they weren’t available, that would probably be better for consumers and the environment. A tin of soup is much easier to recycle
