le menu that I had in the 80's came with a white plate no compartments and had similar food to healthy start microwave meals
Those were the BEST TV dinners ever!! I still remember the one I liked the best:
Chicken Parmagane w/ fett. alfredo w/ Italian green beans!
They were IDIOTS to discontinue it!!! Great management to discontinue such a great TV dinner. Reminds me of the airline industry!
Yep, it was a white round plate with no compartments. The plates were so durable that I still own 4 of them and continue to use them to microwave with! My favorite was Yankee Pot Roast.
Ah Yes...Le Menu, THE VERY BEST PRODUCT EVER that just disappeared(?) (?) (?)...I still have some of their plates--they say Le Menu on the underside. I use them to microwave my "Eggos" (YES, they (Eggos) can be "nuked"), just put a small ice cube on the plate to keep the moisture. Oh well! the microwave just buzzed... time to eat my Healthy Choice!? bye...
Does anyone know where I can the oblong plates that came in frozen dinners in the 80's and 90's? They fit perfect in my husbands lunch box, but the last two are slowly falling apart.
I STILL use my old Le Menu plates. They are my favorite small / lunch plates to use. My wife makes fun of me for still hanging on to them.
I have about 20 Le Menu plates and they are coveted kitchenware! My grandparents used to eat their frozen dinners and saved the plates. I wouldn't get rid of them for anything. I keep scouring Ebay for more, but so far no luck.
I have 3 old LeMenu Plates, they say Do not reheat plate but I've used them.....1000's of times. I think they are originally from 88-92, somewhere in that time frame. I was going to throw all but 1 of them out finally, just keeping the one as a sentimenal item.
My parents STILL have the lids! I kid you not!
Those were the best and the portions were actually huge.
These were great. I was a college student and couldn't afford to buy plates, so it was nice to get the reuseable plates with these dinner. They did have huge portions; they were probably close to a thousand calories per serving. But I didn't worry about such things back then.
Does anyone know where I can get those tv dinner plates (le menu)?
Please let me know.
