  Microwave meal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A microwave meal (also referred to as a frozen dinner, ready meal, or TV dinner because it is often eaten while watching TV) is a prepackaged, frozen meal which usually comes packaged in a flat cardboard box.
These types of meals are rather popular in developed countries; for example, the United Kingdom spends £5 million a day on microwave meals, and it is the largest consumer of microwave meals in Europe.
Before the proliferation of microwave ovens, TV dinners were packaged in aluminium trays and heated in conventional ovens.

It's more of a pain to microwave something 60 seconds on high, then two minutes on 75%, then let cool two minutes, then microwave with the gravy two more minutes, then let cool than to wave the barcode on a box in front of your microwave.
