1. Eons ago during my babysitting days,

if I was babysitting over the dinner hour, the "client" bought TV dinners for me and the kiddos! My favorite was salisbury steak! Doubt if I could eat one now though.

5. Salisbury steak was the best! 😋

2. They had some weird stuff my favorite was sauerbraten.

It would probably cost $15.00 or $20.00 if reproduced today.

6. Damn! I missed that one! 😢

4. On occasion

I still buy Marie Calendar's chicken potpie, and I will always love Stouffer's mac n' cheese.

8. Stouffer's was good. A couple of years ago I bought a Marie Calendars CPP that was microwaveable.

I baked it in the oven however per the instructions. It was inedible. I’m thinking the recipe was changed so it could be nuked.

10. I like the enchiladas and the teriyaki too

I even like the chicken if the sauce is not too blue

11. Mom would announe a TV Dinner night

By saying "We're having dinner with the Swansons."

Agree with others that the fried chicken was the best, but I liked a few of them. Always used to piss me off, though, when the contents would get jostled around in transit, because some of the corn kernels always wound up getting baked into the damn brownie
