Hot take here; Frozen meals are heavily underrated. It's cheap, taste good, convenient and is far superior to ordering food.
If you're going to be lazy and not bothering making food yourself, buying frozen meals are better than ordering food.

I often eat frozen pizza instead of regular pizza because I hate having to deal with turk delivery drivers who cant find the right door or are generally late.

I like getting frozen pasta meals for lunch during homeoffice. Tagliatelle, spinach and salmon or something like that.

I used to think this but lately I can't get a meal at a diner for under $12. Maybe I need to move to a poorer part of town. Used to be able to get decent cuts of meat for $6/lb (450g), not it's hard to get anything less than $10/lb, shrimp is $20/lb

When I'm sick and I truly have no strength to make a soup or function, I sometimes get one of those Lean Cuisine things and eat them. They're hot and salty and that works for me. Add some cayenne on for a burn and you're good.
