Most of us know ready meals aren't good for us.
This programme not only looks at sugars and fats in some, but also greenhouse gasses in producing them, and at how a lot of plant based are not as healthy as some think. And at packaging and cost.

Quite interesting.

Not sure if its one off or part of a series

Recorded it, but haven't had a chance to watch it yet. However, having reviewed many of the ready meals I was eating prior to my diabetes diagnosis through the new perspective I now have, it's struck me how bad most are on so many counts.

Completely understand why people eat them, I was one of them, but having had over 3 months now without any ready meals, I'd never go back to eating them. Even if diabetes could be magicked away, my meals are orders of magnitude better without them and so much more satisfying.

Very interesting. Sneaky lot the food manufacturers.
Thanks for the heads up @MrsA2.
