Ok, we've all seen some of my complaint statements that I've sent to various companies.
Now here's one I sent today to a company that markets some food I decided to try for lunch.
You guys should try this food. It's good.
On to the "complaint" --->
A few weeks ago, I purchased a box of the Tai Pei General Tso's Spicy Chicken from the local grocery store. The frozen, microwaveable pail caught my attention while I was search for food items to take to the workplace for lunch.
"NEW!" it said clearly on the box.
I thought to myself, "Oh, this really IS new. And look at that! It's in one of those silly little 'to go' boxes you get from a restaurant. I'll buy one and see what it's like."
My experience with frozen, microwaveable food had been less than ideal, but I decided to try something "NEW!"
Time passed by...
While at work, I removed the container of "chicken white meat & vegetables in a spicy sauce" from the freezer. Before reading the cooking instructions, I removed the plastic clear wrap from the box. It was then that I read the instructions. "Just great!" I said aloud, "Now what do I do?"
I followed the rest of the instructions precisely so nothing else could go wrong. "Ooh!" I exclaimed, "That really does smell good!"
My mouth watering in anticipation, I open the lid. Peering down into the container, I see brilliant greens, oranges, and other vegetable colors. As I dipped my fork into the tasty-looking mixture, I was shaking. "Could this be real?"
Oh wow! There was so much flavor in the first bite. I gobbled the rest of the feast within seconds. The last bite was just as good as the first.
Had my experience with frozen food really changed? I did not know...until now.
Today, I sampled the Tai Pei Shrimp Fried Rice. This time, since I knew about the cooking directions on the side of the box, I read them before doing anything else. No step was skipped.
I sit down at my desk and take the first bite (after opening the container, of course). Holy To-Go Pails! I think it took less time to eat this than "The General." The meal, just like the previous Tai Pei meal, was full of flavor. Plenty of little shrimps to enjoy throughout. Almost enough to have one for each bite.
I believe you have changed my view of frozen, microwaveable foods. These have to be the greatest. I can't wait to try the next flavor! If only I was given a large supply of this stuff. Only then would I be a happy man.
