my company has these too, but i have no reason to use them

I tried the 4 minute meals from Tabla and Artisinal a while back, and thought both of them are doing a serious disservice to Floyd Cardoz and Terrance Brennan. They're both extremely talented Chef's with great restaurants (I always enjoy both of them when I visit), but they made a big mistake putting their names on these containers of microwaved shit.

I don't think my wallet holds enough bills to feed the machine for a RM entree.

Also, have you seen the calories on those bad boys!!! Might as well go to Shake Shack.

I have had several of the Rosa entrees from Fresh Direct, and honestly, other than being overpriced.. aren't bad. The enchiladas stand out.

There was a free sampling event at my office, featuring these Fresh Direct meals, which of course I went to, and I thought they were surprisingly good - especially the chkn tikki masala from Tabla. The enchilada from Rosa was a bit too spicy for my liking, but still, pretty good. They say it's freshly made and refilled weekly. It is pricey for "gourmet" food from a vending machine, but when the NY winter hits, I will probably be hitting it up more frequently.

My company has announced that a new vending machine is going in (branded from Fresh Direct) that will feature such things as Chicken Tikka Masala from Tabla, Chicken and Cheese Enchiladas from Rosa Mexicana and Beef Bourguignon from Terrance Brennan. I know I am committing blasphemy by even asking about microwaved food from a vending machine, but sometimes I can't make it out for lunch. Has anyone tried this stuff?
