TV Dinners

The funny thing about TV dinners is the have the ability to make everything taste the same.  The miracle behind this happening goes as follows:
 

Step 1:  Peel corner of package off for ventilation

Step 2: Put in microwave on high for 3 minutes (seems plenty long to me, but keep reading)

Step 3: Take out of microwave, and remove the rest of the lid.

Step 4: Stir and put back into microwave for an additional minute.

Step 5: Again stir the screaming hot liquid that for whatever reason doesn't LOOK hot.
Step 6: Indulge.

Okay, okay... so maybe my stupidity plays in a little here, but according to my experience if something isn't bubbling or steaming (which this meal wasn't) it's not hot. WRONG-O WRONG-O!  I placed one of these delectable looking raviolis into my mouth.  I should have spit the dumb thing out, but there were co-workers around.  So I did what anyone in my shoes would have done and started to chew to swallow.  This was also a mistake, because all of the cheesy goodness that I should have been indulging in was burning every taste bud in my mouth off! 

Moral of the story: next time you're running late, skip the TV dinner and buy a bagel instead.
