Tonight our family of four have all been fed different ready meals. Even the four yr old!!

[Notfabulousatfourty]

I'm really not sure of it's a bit neglectful or ok

We've had an incredibly busy weekend and went to an event last night which meant none of us got much sleep. Hence I am shattered.

Gave DP his fave ready meal dinner. 4 year old had a (waitrose if that makes any difference haha!!) kids slag Bol. My older son is very fussy ( would really much rather go without than eat 95% the meals I am good at cooking) so he had his fave a roast beef dinner. I, being the token vegetarian had a vege meal.

Everyone ate their dinners, was blissful peace!!

How odd am In considering this not too bad

If it works for you then why not.
There's only two of us here, and I cook one meal, the choice is eat it or don't.

They're all fed.. its fine!

2 important things I can deduce from this op.

1. Everyone ate.
2. There was peace.

Jobs been done. I'd congratulate myself with

Of course its not too bad!

Going to bed hungry or stuffed to the gills with junk would be bad.

We all had different meals too, but poor dp cooked them all from scratch. He's even made something for me to take to work tomorrow :). Dp is a lot more accommodating than me though when it comes to meal times.

Its one night and everyone ate.

4 year old had a (waitrose if that makes any difference haha!!) kids spag Bol

at this being neglectful. My 4 year old gets those pasta cartoon shapes in tomato sauce from a tin when I don't have time or CBA to cook properly. I've never set foot in a waitrose.

I'm going to be very honest here do you really think people are bothered about what you have feed your family after a busy weekend? If you don't tell anybody nobody can judge

I'd love to try some slag bol

The only thing I judge is slag bol!

Last year when I was suffering with pregnancy exhaustion and sickness DS lived off ready meals, once the radioactive glow faded he went back to being his happy 5 yr old self

Oh well, as long as it's Waitrose... (Do you seriously imagine they're any better than anyone else's ready meals?)

It's food, and it's food that a great many million people in this world would give their right arm for. Don't be so silly.

Don't worry 9 times out of 10 we all have different food every night. Four dcs never have the same meal.

Occasionally if I'm lucky dd1 has the same and me and dh but it's not often. I hate dinner time it's like working in a restaurant!

YABU op but only because this is a blatant stealth boast. Who can afford 4 ready meals?

Oh dear my post seems to have annoyed a few respondents!!

Is totally lighthearted but I was actually wanting to genuinely gauge people opinions as there is so much judging on this forum over food choices. I just wondered how far removed from most peoples norms this would be.

Yes DS 2 really does a good old slag Bol haha!! ( honestly Apple do you not realise how truly awful your autocorrect feature is, it's criminal how wrong it gets things!!?)

Ref waitrose I am not a committed Waitrose shopper as they are pricey, however I do believe their food values are a bit better than some/many other shops. Just my opinion.

Everyone ate, no hassle. No problem.

We had 4 different meals too.

CheesySon had Aldi pizza with added courgette and other vegetables on the top.

HusbandCheesy had leftover rice and green lentils with chilli and coriander

CheesyCats had catfood

I had three cups of herbal tea because I am fasting.

Usually we eat the same, but sometimes life gets in the way of best laid plans.

Someone on MN once said ; 'Everyone's fed, no-body's dead'.
