Just Add Bacon: 5 Freaky Frozen Dinners

November 19, 2009 10:00

TV dinners have come a long way since Swanson's Hungry Man. Have you taken a look in your grocer's freezer section lately? Salisbury steak is so comforting, yet so yesterday. Here are five frozen dinners that just might freak you out.

1. Chunil Foods' Octopus Fried Rice.
Where can you find it? Galleria Market.
How much is it? $3.99
Why so freaky? Because there's octopus in this fried rice!

2. Ajinomoto's Chicken Fried Rice, Bacon Added.
Where can you find it? Mitsuwa Marketplace.
How much is it? $3.99
Why so freaky? Because you can't just go around adding bacon to everything. It's not MSG!

3. Kid Cuisine's Cosmic Chicken Breast Nuggets.
Where can you find it? Ralphs, Vons, what have you.
How much is it? $2.99
Why so freaky? Because I'm pretty sure the astronaut duck is tossing candy into the mashed potatoes.

4. Stouffer's Welsh Rarebit.
Where can you find it? Gelsons.
How much is it? $1.77
Why so freaky? Because it's frozen cheese on toast and it sounds like "rabbit."

D. Thomas

5. Hot Pockets' Barbecue Recipe Beef Sandwich.
Where can you find it? Why would you want to?
How much is it? $3.49
Why so freaky? Because it's not a "sandwich." Seriously. Look at that thing. Jesus.
