She comes across as someone thats got a downer on it, and hellbent on trivialising to begin with even trying to get her friends from her biased viewpoint to form an opinion before its passed their lips. It suits some lifestyles and requirements perfectly YMMV I'd say to the Guardian reviewer that probably spends a lot of time in posh delis or shopping at Waitrose. Theres many people like myself that can't really eat that well on a budget. For what, £1.60 a meal its good value and I don't have to worry about nutrition, or cleaning up in a very small apartment. If you are a foodie, have the budget and the time and the nice kitchen knock yourself out, but I love the convenience and sleeping well on something thats nutritionally complete, takes seconds to prep and easy to digest - plus simple to calorie count. I am a bit of an evangelist over this stuff, I get the piss ripped out of me unmercifully at work which I don't get. I suppose individuality scares some people.
