Hungryman's Roasted Turkey Dinner - WHAT ARE WE EATING?? - The Wolfe Pit

[@LatitudeSky]

As a single guy with no family, it makes zero sense to do a traditional turkey dinner. The cost for all that food and the amount of work it would take and just feed me? No way. So I do appreciate these frozen dinners. Thanks for the reviews!

[@EnderH-mw6ew]

Hey LS, I know what you mean. I'm a single gal with a son & we're basically in the same situation. My son is a picky eater & has never enjoyed holiday-type food, so it doesn't make sense for me to go to any trouble just for myself. Have you ever tried Stouffer's frozen dinners? IMO they're awesome & definitely my go-to when it comes to wanting a "somewhat" homemade meal. Especially with a Sister Schubert yeast roll on the side. TV DINNER PEOPLE UNITE! 😉👍

[@stevewhitcher6719]

When i lived on my own I still did a Sunday roast once a week, yes it was a pared down version. I used to roast a Chicken , or Pork joint or Beef joint once a month and freeze most of it for other weeks. It worked out cheaper than ready meals and i knew what i put in it :)

[@NoOne-nf8cl]

Several years back I used to buy these occasionally from the market next door to my work for a quick, cheap lunch. I'm generally not a fan of frozen meals, but this one is really good. Your review is spot-on, especially your comments about the stuffing. It always came out inconsistent in texture. As for the apple cranberry dessert... I actually think it's a nice addition. It inspired me to make my own version of it at thanksgiving dinner that year and serve it instead of traditional cranberry sauce. It was a hit. Really enjoying your content. Subscribed.

[@JS-wp4gs]

Should try the small banquet fried chicken tv dinner. its basically just corn, potatoes and a fried chicken thigh, but oddly enough its probably the most authentic and best fried chicken tv dinner i've ever had. it actually has proper fried chicken skin instead of that soggy breaded crap and its an actual chicken thigh, which is pretty rare for supposed 'fried chicken' these days. Granted its greasy as hell and probably loaded with chemicals but i'd definitely give it a try, it would make a great review

You definitely need a bit more poultry/meat, starches (more potato, buttered corn/rolls, etc.), and a brownie/chocolate chip cookie/peanut butter cookie, etc. to get into the 500-600+ calorie range... A military MRE often has over 1000 calories in one meal. Here's why: Common foods in MRE's: -Peanut butter (and lots of it) -Thick/doughy bread/pastry -Beef -Potato -Pork -Bacon -Chocolate Brownie -Oatmeal Cookie -Cheese Spread -Granola Bar -Fruit Pie -Fruit Drink Meat/poultry, starches, fruit juice, chocolate, dairy, nuts = plenty of calories Notice that fish, avocados, eggs, walnuts, fresh fruit, dark leafy greens, beans, berries, seeds, mushrooms, etc. don't tend to be very common with MRE's, or, to an extent, microwaveable meals. This is of course the kind of stuff that should be more common in our diets of course, but fish, nuts, berries, etc. can get pricy... Thus, we still like that microwaveable meal stuff, here and there... Its "good", but it's also not quite THAT good... :-/

When you cooking the turkey dinner cook it for about 5 minutes pull it back and put gravy when you're stirring it over the dressing..it gives it moisture and you'll have a completely different kind of stuffing then

[@TVindustries5000]

whoa Twisted Metal refrence!! would've never expected that outta you haha

[@GeorgeWMays]

Thanks for a really good video. It's appreciated. This product is a favorite of mine. Pro tip: mush up the stuffing when you stir mashed potatoes at halftime. Funny. I often set to tray outside for the dog to clean up. The first thing she goes for is the veggies --- every time. The vegetables are very good but are even better with a little butter. Another Hungry Man tip: oven bake the dinners where a firm crust is desired; for example the beer battered chicken.

Just reading the salt content makes me need to reach for my water, jeez, a cup of seawater would be less salty... :S

[@kingleoxvii2463]

I always think the same. It's a wonder there are not more people dropping dead from sodium poisoning.

[@AndrewAnstrom]

Believe it or not, I always put more salt on this when I make it... For as much salt is in it, it tastes kinda bland otherwise.

[@queeffairy]

If you do canned soup your most likely hitting over 50 percent and that was a shock to me. That's not including any of the noodles with seasoning packets that most people tend to also snack on which usually have 50 to 60+ percent of daily sodium.

[@MultiGreatNinja]

It is listed as sodium so you actually have to calculate the actual salt content of food. Idk why they just list is as NaCl and not just Na in food so annoying.

I buy these all the time. They're the best TV dinners you can get.

Did hungry man used to be Swanson??? Whatever happened to Swanson??? They were the best TV dinners you could get!

I love this series idea. When I was in college I couldn't go home for the holidays one year and wasn't much of a cook back then lol. I tried a lot of these holiday dinners the week we were out and they were all horrible. I'm really curious to see how many of them are good and how many suck now.

[@MrTruth-yn7pq]

Other than the lack of gravy usually making the turkey dry, these are some of the better quality meals that Swanson makes. Thanks Larry!

[@rickvia8435]

Hungry Man Turkey dinners are one of my quick motel-room favorites. I usually end up mixing it ALL together (even the cranberry). It makes quite the rib-sticker.

[@MrAhmes2001]

I hate this time of the year... I’ll buy this meal for Christmas

[@alistaircooke3233]

[@bigracer3867]

Hungry man meals use to be bigger, now they are the same size a most others. That sucks. But what can one do.

[@sharonlatour6230]

eat 2 of them.

[@deeznutz2646]

Didn't they used to have one that had like twice as much food in it? IIRC was advertised as having like over 2.5 lbs of food.

[@sharonlatour6230]

@@deeznutz2646 It does seem like they used to. But I haven't seen them for a long time

[@CamPopplestone]

This is my go to frozen meal. I like using the dessert on the turkey like a sort of cranberry sauce

[@AdamIsUrqed]

The Backyard BBQ meal from years back when it was 2 pieces of chicken and 2 rib patties with just the mashed potatoes was my fave followed by the beer battered chicken and cheese covered fries. Any time they went on sale at Kroger for $2, I'd stock up on 10 of each and eat like a king (compared to the last few years) for 5 days for $21. Sure, they were absolute trash for nutritional value, but nowhere NEAR how trash $4 a day gets you now when you only have a tiny microwave and a single burner to cook with. An 8 in by 11 in counter space also makes things difficult. Now if I want cheap treats, I stock up on the Dollar Tree sliders you recommended. Helluva lot better than Krystal or White Castle garbage. Cheaper, too.

[@williamfox3351]

I remember when they got rid of the beer battered chicken with the cheese covered potato wedges. Used to be my favorite. They've brought it back but I'm not sure if it is as good as before. Still pretty good though. I do think they changed the turkey dinner though. A long time ago I remember the turkey being thicker(and maybe better) and the there being more stuffing.

[@neanderpaul14]

I haven't had one of these in a while, but from what I remember these weren't half bad. The trick with the stuffing though is to thoroughly mix it, then thoroughly mix in some gravy and let it sit for a few, this vastly improves it.
