Banquet Brand "Salisbury Steak Meal"



Salisbury steak is probably the quintessential TV dinner variety. The Banquet Brand “Salisbury Steal Meal” does not disappoint in this respect. It smells very appetizing from the microwave. It looks on par for a TV dinner. It comes with the same corn and mashed potatoes that came with the chicken fried chicken. However, the meal fails to deliver any one stand out element. The Salisbury steak itself was more reminiscent of a grilled piece of meatloaf. The gravy that came with it seems to essentially be a beef broth that has been gelatinized. Once again the meat is processed enough to be easily cut with a spoon. All in all I would say that this was once again an average TV dinner. This is the kind of flavor, taste and quality you would expect when you get a TV dinner.
