Laziest food products ever!
Discussion
On the back of another thread I have always had a hate for lazy ready made food products. Not the ready meals as such but inane stuff like ready grated cheese, pre boiled potatoes , Aunt Bessie`s Yorshire puddings , chopped Cabbage, pre- florreted Brocolli etc the list is painfully endless.
All enabling the end user to stay rivetted to the sofa and remain more intune within a mind bending world of Xbox 360, Eastenders and Corry !
So what is the most laughable product out there, dehydrated water perhaps..? Or even Microwave ready Tea capsules ??!!!

A lot of the really annoying ones were mentioned on the other thread.
I do have a theory though about Yorkshire Pudding Mix (Just add milk and eggs)
The existence of that product, just that one product is complete and utter justification for weapons grade sociopathy.
If it was to cease to be due to lack of demand I would have a small amount of faith in society but whilst it still does I can have none, none whatsoever.
It is the litmus for everything that is wrong.

caterers egg roll gets my vote, or whatever its called. that vile stuff they had on the C4 chicken program, like an egg swiss roll!
but in terms of sheer laziness i'll say sliced mushrooms. at least i can see the lazy man's logic is buying pre-gated cheese as i hate washing my cheese grater!

Its funny, the French seem to buy a tonnage of dried potato mix that makes a vile mash style substance that is only good for adding to walls and covering with silk emulsion, Crepi I think they call it.
I think the Supermarkets sell slice mushrooms as they are easier to add to bacon sandwiches made with Value white bread and wafer thin bacon that cooks in a nano second washed down with value brown sauce at 39p a gallon .

Maybe Frozen Yorkshire Puddings were the catalyst for everything that is wrong with Society, an interesting thought!I do have a theory though about Yorkshire Pudding Mix (Just add milk and eggs)

Aunt Bessie's frozen Yorkshire puddings are a godsend 
...takes a few minutes to heat up in the oven and they're ready...great when you're doing roast beef fo one 
Pre-made fresh ones aren't as crisp and as I only want 2 it's not viable to make my own....so a big thumbs up for Aunt Bessie's yorkshire puds

Why? Surely you have a nice hot pan of beef fat ready about half an hour before you eat, so why not put batter mix in. No more difficult....takes a few minutes to heat up in the oven and they're ready...great when you're doing roast beef fo one Pre-made fresh ones aren't as crisp and as I only want 2 it's not viable to make my own....so a big thumbs up for Aunt Bessie's yorkshire puds

aunt bessie's ok by me as i can't get plate size puds to rise properly. this is my shame as a yorkshireman, i must get my mum to teach me the secret as she whisks by hand with plain flour and her yorkshires are perfect.
i should add that i pass the aunt bessie factory on my way out to work. mccain and a few others are there as well. if you stand in the asda car park you get [dep. on the wind direction] this combined whiff of clogged arteries or the aroma from the fish docks. it aint good!

If you follow the By Volume recipe , its easy to make a small amount of batter to make even 3 or 4 of the darn things.
Come on...
