Are Dollar Tree Frozen Sandwiches Good?

[@hookshot320]

This has very quickly become one of my favorite channels here on youtube. I love that you never shame any of the food options from a place like dollar tree and always try to be inclusive of people with different financial situations and allergies and disabilities! Food insecurity is VERY REAL problem in here in America, so I especially appreciate that budget is always the main focus of this channel!

[@anti-ethniccleansing465]

If you’re food “insecure,” you’re doing something wrong, because America has both food stamps and food pantries everywhere.

[@LynneMadison0731]

When my fiance and I were homeless and living in a motel, we went to the dollar Tree and got these sandwhiches for our work lunches and dinners. The bbq rib one and the cheese burger one was my favorite. They also have breakfast sandwiches as well! Lifesavers! 😊

[@kaohsiung99]

Cool post. Times like you mentioned make us more appreciative, for sure

[@KathleenPayne-m5y]

Yeah, the BBQ rib was my go to

[@triskaknee3548]

Hi friend I'm a 64yr old Lady that lives near a Dollar tree and love your videos your friend Trish in Sandiego Ca USA

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Thank you Trish!

[@kylieschamens3825]

I always avoid these but with your review I feel more confident to try them out, thanks for the tips.

[@CraftyCassie6910]

When I used to work at Dollar General before I had my son (7 years ago) I used to get that chicken sandwich on my lunch breaks. They only had the cheeseburger and the regular chicken sandwich when I worked there, we had a little cooler in the back with condiments we kept. I always added ketchup and sometimes switched it up and added bbq sauce. It’s definitely not gourmet but it’s a good meal to hold you over and doesn’t taste half bad. I’ll try those other ones and keep them in my deep freezer for those days I just don’t feel like cooking.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Definitely a good cheap meal option! I actually thought for the price and that they were microwavable that overall they were wonderful.

[@carolynscales8277]

I've only tried the cheeseburger and was pleasantly surprised. I thought it was good and tasted like a plain cheeseburger at a fast food place.

[@crabbyresister9194]

Tip: i take the burger patty off and nuke it separately. I add some garlic powder and some seasonings then, twist open the bun and put the patty back inside. Yum.

[@gingerzelidon3573]

I have not tried any of these sandwiches, but I will now! Thanks for the taste test demo! $1.25 sandwiches will fit in my limited budget on occasion, very nicely!

[@christinamarie5226]

The quarter pounder with cheese at McDonald’s was $6.47, I couldn’t believe it. That was for the sandwich alone. I’m definitely going to grab a few of these. Thanks!

[@shelzp7272]

@christina I know, isn’t it wild at McDonalds! I don’t eat meat but recently I drove through to get an egg McMuffin with just the egg and cheese and also a cup of coffee. I forgot exactly what the cost was but it was around $9-10. I told the kid to cancel the order and just got the coffee. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@noble604]

That’s because they can’t shrink a quarter pounder like they’ve shrunk everything else. Since 4oz of anything is always supposed to stay 4oz or it’s false advertising, McDonald’s doesn’t have leeway with that in the same way they have to shrink their cheeseburgers, Big Macs, hamburgers, etc so the size (the size of the patties, at least) has to remain the same and all they can do is raise raise raise the price.

[@noble604]

shelzp - I agree. I went with my mom to Dunkin and it was $19 for the two of us. There are no breakfast combos. You’re buying a sandwich, potatoes and a coffee all separately and everything is overpriced. And about Mcdonakds, if you ever ride up to place your order and see the previous order on the screen, sometimes it’s $35. I wonder what effect this pricing has had on the random acts of kindness of paying for the customer behind you and that going on in a chain. At one time, you might do that and it might be $5.. $10. Now, it could be $25-$40. This was never the intent of fast food pricing. Times really have changed, yes!

[@Scuddles]

Thanks to biden, the economy is stronger than ever before, you should be able to afford anything right now.

[@Chris_Hruska]

@@noble604 and there is zero food value in any of that stuff. crazy. don't eat it and you'll feel better.

[@ammccoy2142]

We eat these on regular basis. I separate the meat from the buns and cook separately. We also bump them up by adding veggies like lettuce, tomato, sliced red onion, or whatever veggies you like.

[@pstuddy]

i’ve tried those dollar tree burgers and was pleasantly surprised with the flavor, pretty tasty and a pretty decent size for just a dollar! also pro tip when microwaving them is to take them out of their plastic and wrap them in a paper towel instead, helps to absorb the steam and moisture for a less soggy bun.

[@AnxiousGary]

I believe they also sell them at Dollar General. My dad was a fan of them for a while before we started getting everything delivered, especially the bbq rib one. Edit: I keep my bbq sauce in a squeeze bottle too haha, it's soooo much easier to dispense

[@LoLoLifeinFlorida]

My favorite one is the BBQ rib one too!

[@kodokushi8321]

They do, thats where I got mine.

[@tjsides1983]

DG employee here. We have them.

[@jamesbigham9036]

I have tried them and my favorite is the Barbecue chicken. Your video on the egg rolls opened my eyes a lot and I have been shopping at Dollar tree since I am a single person it works well plus a good place when you are on a budget.

[@SnoochieBoochieESQ]

The best way to make these is to separate the meat and bread, toast the bread and air fry or microwave the meat/cheese. Makes them way better.

[@apriljoy1733]

Yor are right! Then they are yummy 😋

[@jonistasiak7037]

Great idea

[@marcuscalef3688]

Wicked smarttt

[@drdata1967]

That's cooking. I buy things like this not to cook 😂

[@CoolMoneyFRANK]

Facts

[@shellbhouse7923]

I buy the spicy chicken pretty regularly - if no spicy, I just use a load of hot sauce or honey mustard! I use Miracle Whip (SO happy they have at least the little jars there!), a slice of cheese, and the hot sauce or buffalo mayo dressing!! It's kind of my fast-food comfort food LOL

[@DJcyberslash]

I forgot about those. Used to see those when I was a kid in the Dollar Store.

[@iWuvHuskys]

I like getting the cheeseburger one and adding mayo and a toooooo of pickles. Fast food places are getting ridiculously expensive but these always hit the spot.

[@SublimeGemini]

yessss i always add mayo and ketchup lol

[@dklem97]

Ngl these are actually my favorite lol they remind me of school lunches.

[@donniegreathouse72]

I wish they still had the sausage and cheese biscuit I havent seen those in a long while. The best one they made

[@deborahelliott8460]

I like the grilled chicken sandwich. Just add tomato and lettuce, and its a wonderful sandwich. By the way, I wrap mine in a paper towel so they don't come apart when heating

[@eathomelive]

Love these review videos. Thank you for helping us not waste money. Pickles are also great on chicken sandwiches. I love BBQ sandwiches with coleslaw and pickles. So good. I like how you elevated the sandwiches. Sandwich tip: One thing I do sandwich wise to keep waste down, if I can't get through all of the lunch meat I buy before it goes bad, I make as many sandwiches as I can with the meat and some cheese (also a good way to use up bits of cheese), wrap them and freeze them. You let them thaw and pop them in a skillet with butter or oil and you have a quick warm dinner made of stuff that might have gone bad otherwise.

[@tspain7355]

Saw this video yesterday, went and bought some of these today, and eat a BBQ one, and it was very good. Glad I saw the video and hit subscribe.

[@WalkBesideMe]

The Chicken Sandwich is very good, 2 of those definitely do the trick for lunch

[@WhenTheManComesAround]

They definitely look like they've upgraded the bun since i last had one of those sandwiches years ago. Thanks much for a great vid 👍

[@tylerbhb5]

i’m shocked you didn’t like the cheeseburger more! to me, it’s pretty similar to mcdonald’s burgers. also, as a picky eater, i love how these sandwiches come plain. :)

[@maggiegarber246]

I don’t like mayonnaise or pickles, so I don’t like any chain’s burgers that add those.

[@khalidbutnotthesingerkhalid]

My grandpa loved things like this for work Hed always get the mini pizzas,sandwhiches,burritos and freeze them for work still does even though hes retired. He works around the house alot so when he doesnt feel like cooking we make these dandwhiches His favorites are Bbq Rib Spicy chicken

[@deviousfate]

There is a barbecue rib sandwich that they make as well. It is delicious and we often go to dollar general just because we crave them.

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Didn’t know they had a rib one, if I see it I’ll grab it to try for sure

[@deviousfate]

@@DollarTreeDinners you absolutely should!

[@stacyragland3123]

From what I remember they used to have a fish sandwich too. That's the one I would always get and it was really good.

[@MrRKWRIGHT]

Hello Dollar Tree Dinners. Great review of all the FastBite sandwiches available at Dollar Tree. Based on your recommendation, I'm definitely going to try the breaded chicken version - and you're correct about the condiments (at least in my household). We keep a special plastic bag of small portion pack condiments in the fridge (very economical). 😁

[@j4d7s8]

Can you cover the frozen “snackers” sometime? Like the pizza bites, mozz sticks, etc? I love to see before I buy. 😂

[@DollarTreeDinners]

Absolutely! I’d love to do that!

[@j4d7s8]

@@DollarTreeDinners yay!

[@lagginswag]

The snapps appetizers are decent. These also aren't bad dolled up a bit. Pickles on cheeseburger, bbq sauce on bbq chicken and Buffalo and cheese on the spicy etc. The bbq rib sandwich almost tastes like a mcrib lol.

[@jennifermunn6898]

Another great video!! Thank you for these❤🎉

[@samusai]

The buns on these are super dense too. Like I can't quite describe them. There's not airy like you'd get at a fast food place.

[@GG-uk3dn]

I dont care for “ formed” chicken “parts” products like nuggets, patties, etc so I was very surprised you liked the formed chicken patty over the chic fil a real full chicken breast sandwich. Thank you for the review- interesting and good insight into the product

[@ohguy1991]

Yeah, I'd never eat a formed meat slurry concotion

[@margaretdoyle7319]

I just saw this review - thank you! As a widowed senior person, I have relied on more frozen meals in the past year since my husband is gone, as I used to cook from scratch. I never expect frozen foods, no matter the brand, to be as good as homemade. But trying different frozen items and adding fresh condiments is helpful when stretching a limited food budget.

[@BrVi_7]

I like these especially the grilled chicken, and cheeseburger. I like to let them thaw in the fridge, take out the cheese, and zap for 1 min

[@crabbyresister9194]

Omg i love these. I bought 5 today. 2 ham and cheese and the bbq chicken one i add bbq sauce and some cole slaw and yum Fast and easy sandwiches.

[@jackiemullinix1881]

I have them occasionally at work. They are not bad at all

[@TheHellsHobbit]

Love these sandwiches, I add pickles, tomato, lettuce or spinach and what ever condiment I have.

[@veronicaletmeaskyousomethi8457]

I love those fast bite sandwiches. The cheese burger is my favorite. I doctor it& add sides. They’re just fine.

[@JonathanLeeStriker]

I'm actually a new viewer to your channel, and I just stumbled upon this video after watching a few of your other ones. I really appreciate your in-depth review for these. I've been eating them for years and really enjoy them so it's nice to see someone else's opinion. Personally, I didn't know the grilled chicken or barbecue chicken existed, I've only had the other three. And the cheeseburger is by far my favorite. To me, once you doctor it up a little bit, it tastes pretty close to a McDonald's cheeseburger (and I mean that in a good way), so I was a bit surprised that you didn't like it. But then again everybody has different tastes. Thanks again for the video. I now have two more flavors of these that I need to try. 👍

[@apriljoy1733]

Also we love the Jimmy Dean sausage and pancake breakfast sandwiches!

[@silvialivick3034]

I really appreciate this video,I am really broke and you made my night because I didn’t even know dollar tree had them..I’m going to buy some,,

[@locosmith2005]

These are the only thing my granny would eat for lunch before she passed away last year. I will get them and add a sald for lunch 😊

[@Fudgeey]

I genuinely love those sandwiches. With fast food burgers priced at $5+ a pop now, I'd actually rather purchase these than a drive-thru burger. The entire point of drive-thru food was to be cheap! They're no longer serving that purpose, but these are.

[@Fudgeey]

I just tried the grilled chicken sandwich, it really is a great sandwich when you add toppings. Even just the addition of pickles and sauce turns it into a sandwich punching a few notches above its weight class.

[@claudiabray-flores607]

First of all I just LOVE the dollar tree meals that you come up with. Yesterday...I swear I was thinkin...whens she gonna compare the fast bite sandwiches...and lo and behold I see this, this morning! Girrrrrl. I couldn't agree with you more regarding their chicken sandwiches.....VERY comparable to McDs chicken sandwich. Ever since I found these fast bites, I've never returned to McDs for a mc chicken. I've been eating these for about a year now...however I've never tried the regular breaded one I always get the spicy and i love it. i also agree with you about the burgers i don't very much care for they're not horrible but they're not something i crave like i literally crave these chicken sandwiches! Thank you for doing this comparison i love it Also...I've made them with cheese, bacon and lettuce! Delicious!

[@shellykp33]

My teenage son loves these. My favorite used to be the pork rib bbq. Like a McRib! I haven't seen them for a long time though.

[@barbarasunday3514]

Those look like sandwiches I used to get hot at bus station cafes,I kinda liked them

[@angelwings7866]

You're brave but I love these videos.

[@Darthmufin]

They are a reasonable size and they have a pretty good texture and taste surprisingly. The cheesburger is hit or miss because the imitation cheese just boils off and makes a mess since they are never in the center of the burger and instead hanging outside of the sandwhich. I will say that the cheese in your video is much different than the ones i get. The square of cheese is smaller, and its always hard as a rock, you cant pick it up and replace it at all lol.

[@terryl.cooper]

I tired the grilled and breaded chicken sandwiches along with the burgers. Adding mustard on the burgers made it good for me.

[@Senpeye_]

The regular and spicy chicken sandwiches are my favorite. They taste heavenly with sriracha sauce!

[@harshbarj]

I like to make these in the toaster. At least the ones that will not drip. Just put each bit of bead in a slot, and the meat in a third. It's a tight fit, but works. Wish I could do this with the BBQ one, but I don't feel like cleaning out the toaster after each "meal".

[@thebestchannel5456]

I used to just fry the patties in the skillet wwith maybe a teaspoon of olive oil it gets them crispy

[@lonnybush5612]

These sandwiches and other convenient store sandwiches we called "nike and pukes". 😅 The fish sandwich was my favorite.

[@flirtwd]

I get the sense that she can break character and cuss you out at any moment.

[@twohandsandaradio]

Cheeseburger here. Doctor it up with lettuce, pickle, onion, extra cheese and pick a condiment. Turns out pretty good.

[@teslagrooms1165]

Last time I ate one of these, it was the spicy chicken sandwich. I bit into a piece of bone that was inside the patty. Haven't eaten one since.

[@marcusdub07]

Thank you, I was considering trying them. That's a phobia of mine, and it's happened plenty of times to me with formed chicken items...worst time was a huge bone shard in a Burger King nugget.

[@Rubyyred12]

All those are so good!

[@cleanfreak2005]

I used to buy these at a Pick n Save, the store has closed now. Next time I am at a $tree I will look for them again. As I recall the burgers tasted like they had a lot of filling, not a lot of beefy flavor, My g-son loved the Spicy Chicken sandwich. The BBQ was kind of dry. But they were a meal with some chips on a night that I did not have a lot of time to cook.

[@squintz_5155]

I buy those sandwiches all the time now they are actually really good i was shocked when i first tried them

Hi I'm new to the Channel just see this video. But as far as the cheeseburger you could always add your favorite salt-and-pepper first then heated it up. Or even garlic powder and onion powder before.

I lived in my car for a few months a while back. I lived off those burgers!

I have avoided those sandwiches but now I will be trying them that chicken one will be the first yum

[@decedrapompa2996]

Remove the cheese before microwaving the sandwich, then replace afterward and let the heat of the sandwich melt the cheese. This way you don't lose the cheese to over melting whilst cooking. I also do this with breakfast sandwiches.

[@markmartin8211]

This review is spot on.

[@Thepitz2000]

I couldn't watch the video, I was mesmerized by your pretty eyes. I promise I will watch the video again and pay attention to the choices.

The porkrib, cheese burger , chicken spicy sandwich are great quivk lunch optiond as you sometimes only get half hours lunches that leaves you with no time to eat. The egg rolls are good too.

[@virar8501]

I use to recommend them to older folks that have a hard time cooking if you add a fruit a veggie and carton low fat milk they can gave a decent meal.

[@veganhomeschoolmom]

Thank you for the video. Every Saturday I get a McChicken. I opt to add mayo at home. They put too much. Cost $2.09 w/o tax. Now I can’t save a little money and have it more than once a week. ❤
