Table for one

healthy choice solosLast week at the supermarket, I saw a Healthy Choice “Solos” macaroni and cheese dinner in the freezer aisle. Even with today’s take-away culture, the correlation of TV dinners with pathetic loneliness is so strong that I’m surprised Healthy Choice went there like that. The “Solos” label must be the company’s positive alternative to “People who eat this meal will die alone, lives unfulfilled”. Or maybe the latter just wouldn’t fit on the label.
