I have been trying to find a way to email Grannie's because I did not want to make this severe criticism public. I understand from several Social Workers that Grannie's may be the best Meals-on-Wheels available in Central Ohio. It would be such an enormous improvement if they would stop including only inedible mashed potatoes and green beans. I would so much prefer to be able to eat a much greater proportion of their meals.
TO GRANNIE'S: PLEASE STOP MAKING YOUR MASHED POTATOES AND GREEN BEANS INEDIBLE!
Please stop padding them with so much liquid that they become horribly slimy and disgustingly inedible. It appears to be obvious that you want to pretend that you are providing more food than you do - by filling the garbage with nothing but liquid. Please try eating them yourself one day, and you would see how totally awful they are.
I have to say that Grannie's mashed potatoes and green beans are, by far, the worst that I have ever tasted in my life. Until I first tasted Grannie's, I never dreamed that green beans could be ruined this totally. Grannie's potatoes and green beans are both padded with so much liquid that they are miserably, disgustingly slimy to eat.
It is possible to drain both the horrible mashed potatoes and green beans, using lots of paper towels, but the towels cost more than the little bit of food is worth after draining the large volume of liquid. Their mashed potatoes contains a half-cup of liquid and only a quarter cup of potatoes after draining. Definitely not worth the cost of the paper towels!
I honestly can't imagine how they make green beans so disgustingly slimy by forcing them to hold such an enormous amount of liquid. I am pretty sure that they start with canned green beans, when they should use fresh or frozen. Then they freeze the meal, making the canned green beans totally whimpy. Is that all they do to completely ruin the green beans?
To Grannie's cooks: I beg you: please stop ruining the mashed potatoes and green beans so completely! read more
