Not Getting What You Pay For

Recently I purchased a few TV dinners like I often do. It isn't the best diet, but at least I am eating a more balanced meal that I would otherwise. Once I get home I decided to make one of the meals. Chicken with mashed potatoes and corn, all a not so growing guy needs. I read the directions, poke the holes in the plastic, and pop it in the microwave. Like many people, I have had some rather bad food experiences, but don't worry because this isn't one of them. After a few minutes it comes time to peal off the plastic and stir the mashed potatoes. This is when I notice the container didn't contain any Chicken. I guess it did feel kind of light but it never registered that something might be missing.
I just got done emailing the company just to see what they say, so I figured I would share this story...not that anyone would care other that to possible take a minute out of your day to think about something different than you would otherwise. This isn't the first time I have not gotten what I paid for. It has happened a few times. Some not so interesting such as the time I purchased chicken tenders which were suppose to contain 40 tenders. When I opened it the container didn't seem as full as usual so I stubbornly counted. 36! One of my favorites was with one of those family packs with a variety of chips. I use to have them in my lunches in elementary school. One day I was home and grabbed a bad for a snack to notice that it only contained air. It was very full of air though, which I guess counts for something.
