Somewhat spurred on by this thread I tried one for lunch today for the first time in about 5 years. I'm no food snob; I'm as likely as the next guy to succumb to my baser food instincts, but I can genuinely say that it was one of the worst things I've consumed in some time. The jam I had on my toast this morning was less sweet than the gloop the meatballs were languishing in.
The cookie was quite acceptable.
