I don’t think that’s really the spirit of the question. Not all frozen food are made equal. The stuff in restaurants is higher quality frozen food than what you typically find in the frozen foods section of your local supermarket.
Higher quality seems like a stretch based on the last times someone dragged me to a crappy national chain.
Higher salt and fat content definitely, because that shit tastes good. At the grocery store, you’re far more likely to shop for things that seem healthy, and the restaurant meals would have insane nutrition labels (especially if they were honest about restaurant serving sizes).
There’s a lot more frozen food served at restaurants than you realize. And not just at crappy national chains like Applebees. There are different grades of frozen foods, and the better restaurants use higher quality ones.
It seemed like you presented it as a given that just because it’s at a restaurant, it’s higher quality.
I was trying offer the counterexample and suggest that the grocery store frozen food is also intentionally different making “quality” difficult to compare.
I thought they were referring to the restaurant branded food you can buy from the supermarket snd make at home. Like these two chain restaurant items that I have purchased and consumed.
Most of the time those branded items are only using the name and the product is not the same. I get the Taco Bell hot sauce bottles, but it is not the same as in the packs.

Yeah, I get that.

Ah. Makes sense.

There are some frozen ones too, but don’t remember which ones.

You have to add your own supply of semen.
Lol, no. Restaurants just use a full stick of butter per meal so it tastes better.
Not at Applebees. That place is terrible. I’d rather eat McDonald’s.
