[AugieTN]

If you have ever watched Master Chef, Kitchen Nightmares or Hell's Kitchen, you know how adamant Gordon Ramsay is about fresh food ingredients, Never ever use anything frozen, plus, never use a microwave.

Gordon Ramsay just came out with a frozen meals you heat up in the microwave. I went ahead and bought his frozen Chicken Pot Pie

Everyone has a price. I hope the pot pie is decent.

I saw those at Wal-mart today along with some Guy Fieri ones. I declined to purchase any of them.

 

[AugieTN]

I also saw the Guy Fieri meals, but didn't buy one. I did see the Andrew Zimmern meals and grabbed his meatloaf meal

I wouldn't buy it just because of Gordon Ramsay, dude is a complete ass

 

[mikedt]

I don't usually eat instant ready meals myself

not only is he an ass, but 80% percent of his restaurants fail at some point. i know that majority of restaurants fail because it is hard to run that kind of business. but having a name like his should give him a vantage over everyone else.

when i went to culinary school, one of my chefs(teacher) worked with him. and she said that he was a piece of and that his cooking was ok......not great, but ok.

i never liked the guy and i would never eat any of his food. i hate his personality. why he is so popular is beyond me. and the fact that he put his name on some frozen food junk says that he is in it for the money.

it looks like any other frozen food that is out now. i think Marie Calendar's pot pie looks and probably tastes better than that junk.

and i am not a frozen food kind of guy. i was during high school and college, but not now. the closest i have come to frozen food would be Costco's cauliflower crust pizza.

Did you eat raw meat for dinner?

 

[olbriar]

I have eaten Marie Calendar's pot pie and it wasn't bad. Not home made.. the chicken chunks had a bit of off flavor but the pie was eatable. The crust was good and the taste in general was better than I expected.

 

[AugieTN]

I'm neither a Gordon Ramsay fan nor a hater. The wife and I have seen his Restaurants in Vegas but have never eaten at one due to the price. I do watch Master Chef.

I did eat his Chicken Pot Pie tonight. The only different about it compared to any other Chicken Pot Pies I have eaten is it had a lot of chicken in it. Other than that it wasn't anything special

G. Ramsay, love him or hate him, he knows his stuff....
I'll have to try it....

True, you don't get Michelin Stars serving a Big Mac

Gordon Ramsay: 17 Michelin Stars Ramsay is associated with seven current Michelin Stars, but throughout his career his restaurants have earned a total of 17 stars. His first taste of these coveted awards came in 2001 when his namesake restaurant earned three Michelin Stars.

You don't earn Michelin Stars for instant ready meals (TV dinners) either, no matter who's name is on the packet.

Very True!

 

[mikedt]

I do like Mr Brain's Pork Faggots though.

 

[treb1797]

I'm surprised in the soft culture we live in they can actually still put the word "faggots" on it.

I get that, but the snowflakes out their might find it offensive

I think they're only sold in Britain. Pork meatballs wouldn't be branded like that in America.

I used to live very near the Brains factory in Kingswood, Bristol, where the faggots used to be made. Kraft(or whoever) probably makes their faggots in Poland now. And I do remember seeing the Kraft Foods, Brains staff bus every day when I was at school. A Bristol Lodekka bus. I know The Lamb pub as well,

yeah but over there ****** is not offensive because they do not use that word like we do here in the US......so its different.

now if they sold that here in the US, then they would have an issue.
