I Have a Weak Mind

, , ,

I admit that I have a weak mind and can easily be influenced by television advertisements. After watching guest judge Rocco DiSpirito peddle Bertolli frozen dinners in Top Chef Episode 6: Freezer Burn, I succumbed and bought the Italian Sausage and Rigatoni (on sale at Don Quijote this week).

The promise of these Bertolli meals is a pasta dish for two after 10 minutes of cooking. You empty the bag into a skillet, and let the magic begin.

And 10 minutes later, voila!

My own top chef added some mushrooms, and the meal delivered as promised. Enough for two, 10 minutes of cooking, and it tasted pretty good. Salty but tasty. This would make a good meal for those single, young (minded), partying, strip club owning guys out there!

    ah, yes. the wonders of modern cooking! i have survived years of bachelorhood thanks to skillet pasta, which actually makes me think that i’m really cooking and eating healthy! the only downside is that i can’t throw away the pan after i’m done eating. once the geniuses at bertolli figure out how to include a disposable skillet in each frozen meal, i’ll be a customer for life!!!!
