Healthier ready-to-eat meals would have ‘huge’ EU climate benefits – report

Co-authors say ‘no-regrets’ policy would save consumers €2.8bn a year while cutting emissions by 48m tonnes

The Guardian
Food Companies (especially Frozen Food Companies) keep silently changing out the ingredients for cheaper ones in smaller quantities, despite also jacking up the prices to sometimes 200% of it was just a few years ago. And as a picky eater who sometimes relies on "safe foods" for a familiar texture and flavor profile to make sure I eat, it's frustrating to pay twice as much for a frozen meal only to open it and see, "Oh, they decided they wanted more money." #frozenfood #packagedfood #readytoeatmeals #tvdinners #pickyeater
