Title: "Enjoy" WTF?!?!?
Post by: SSG Snuggle Bunny on October 13, 2009, 08:52:59 PM
So...

...I buy a microwave sandwhich of the typical variety. You know, the ones that say "Microwave for 5 minutes then allow 3 days to cool".

Well, in addition to these instructions the last line says, "Fold sandwhich halves together and enjoy."

"Enjoy"?

What if I don't enjoy? What if I call the 1-800-Y-WE-SUCK comment line and say, "I didn't enjoy it." Are they going to tell me, "That's because you didn't follow the directions.

Why is the onus suddenly on me?

This shit keeps me up a night, man.

Speaking of nuclear potables.... does anyone remember swanson pot pies? Were they not like eating molten lava when they came out of the 450 degree oven?

Ha! Yes I remember those Swanson pot pies. I remember the days before microwaves, when it took 50 full minutes to cook one in the regular oven, then it would scald you if you even tried to eat it without it cooling for 15 - 20 minutes. How did we ever survive without the microwaver devise.

I think it taught us patience. I remember full meals of leftovers being cooked on the stovetop or in the oven. Sometimes you had to wait more than 45 seconds to eat!  :p

Yes and then we had to actually do dishes and clean up the kitchen instead of just throwing out the wrapper. I don't really miss that.

I used to wonder why 7-11's had a locking door.  I don't anymore.  This summer, we had a power outage.  The poor 7-11 dude had to guard the store by locking the door, and yelling "We No Open!"

I still have scar tissue on the roof of my mouth from a pot pie eaten in the 70's.

But the Swanson Creamed Chipped Beef and the Turkey Tetrazzini were pretty good.

My father bought one of the first microwave ovens that came out. My step-mother was not much of a cook, and decided to make a meatloaf in it. It came out like grey Skippy dog food. She also fed us Hamburger Helper every single night for two years, and this was back when there was only one or two flavors of the crap. I still feel like puking when I smell that stuff cooking.

The upside is, I learned to be one hell of a cook.
