Probably any of the frozen foods - especially ones that are easy to make yourself from scratch. But I loooooove frozen pizza! Also, the cut and bake cookies. You know the ones that come completely formed and all you have to do is open the package pretty much.

When they offer to pack my groceries for me, am I supposed to just stand there with a vacant expression on my face while they do it?

Pre made salads and breakfasts microwaved in minutes

Grated cheese. I mean, c'mon!! What's so bad about grating your own? I used to think buying mashed potatoes was lazy, but I suppose I can understamd it to a point, even if they don't taste as good as home made mash. Grated cheese beats everything. And what's more, people pay like £1 more for it! That strikes me as idiotic as well as lazy.

As Carmella said, the grated cheese is pretty bad, but in my opinion, the packages of pre-sliced cheese "Singles" are even worse. Slicing cheese requires even less effort than grating it. And it's not even as if the cheese they use in these slices is especially good, it's just that same doughy, flavourless American cheese that's normally melted down for dips and such.

I saw pre-mashed potatoes...please mash them yourself its a good way to release stress lol.

The tubes of brownie batter and cookie dough. Seriously - how hard is it to put a couple ingredients together? ESPECIALLY the brownies? I can understand buying a box of dry brownie mix - that's fine. Mix in your own eggs and oil and water - makes decent brownies. But the tubes you just squeeze into a pan and spread out? How hard was it to use the box? Seriously. My friend told me that she bought one of those and it was all I could do to not go off ranting about it. It's SO lazy it's ridiculous!!!

I think I have you ALL beat. I saw these at Stew Leonard's In Yonkers, NY today. This is a serious Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!! I mean really, if you can't boil and peel an egg... You don't even get a dozen but hey, 2 for $5!!

Premade mashed potatoes. Yuck. All the crap mentioned here reminds me of why I can't stand "Semi-HOmemade with Sandra Lee" on the food network. She puts canned pie filling in the middle of a pre-made angel food cake and calls it dessert. Puke!
-
Pre-cooked bacon???? Sliced cheese. Packages of already cut up onion, bell peppers and carrots. Boxed mashed potatoes.

Pre-sliced apples. How hard is that?
