Bob W, you need to understand the difference between actual food and aspirational food. Have you never purchased a frozen entree and looked at all the deliciousness on the box, only to find a "less than appealing" item that barely resembles what you thought you purchased, inside the box? Have you never purchased that item you saw on a commercial that makes the fast food item seem so delectable and yet, a lukewarm paper-wrapped slopburger shows up on your tray?

Might I politely suggest that you start considering that all AS meals are merely aspirational, and hopefully, it will clear up your ever increasingly severe case of IBS (Irritable Bob Syndrome).
