tl;dr extremely small portion, like the size of a microwave meal and it was overcooked and to add insult to the injury, bland as hell.

I've been cooking my own meals for the past couple of months and I decided to treat myself today and not have to cook and clean up. Fast "food" has taken a nosedive. I'm out $30 from a comrade that could have went towards groceries and I feel stupid and ripped off.

FUCK FUCK

Yeah unless you know the place it's a real big risk.

Some of those packaged meals in the freezer/refrigerated section aren't bad at all and can be had for $8-$14 And you can just microwave it so it's still a pretty lazy meal. Add on some fresh rolls or a loaf of bread like french bread or sourdough for $4 and you have a tasty comprehensive little meal and some left-over bread for $20.
