    dmf80, I agree with you to an extent...but sometimes, something's gotta give. I work full time and have a toddler. My husband is generally not home in the evenings (work), and i don't have any family or a nanny to help out. I'm on my own most nights. I cook from scratch six nights out of seven, and pretty much always pack a lunch, unless there is some work event going on. But a few times a month, I am just too tired to pack a lunch, there aren't leftovers in the house, I'm sick, etc...and then I'm happy to have a frozen lunch in the freezer that I can take along with some steamed frozen veggies for lunch. I think Lean Cuisines and the like are a great backup option - I always keep one in my freezer. Maybe I am lazy, but something's gotta give!
