I was partial to Banquet brand frozen pot pies myself. Chicken or turkey were good, beef was nasty. The other brand had no shell just a pastry topping, and was substandard all around.

Reading The Jungle in high school changed my views. I expect that's just considered leftist communist propaganda today (which was Sinclair's intent by the way. He said "I aimed for their heart and hit them in the stomach"), but I'm sure the food industry's motives are unchanged.
