Cafe W: Chicken & Cheese Crispy Quesadilla

Did you know Walgreen’s has their own frozen meal brand?  Yeah, neither did I.  So I was SHOCKED when my coworker Heidi showed up with something called Cafe W.  Look at them, trying to classy up a drug store.  So strange, though.  Does the pharmacy NEED a frozen meal line?  Let’s find out!

So this box actually has THREE servings.  Strange.  Let me start by saying the fat in this meal is off the charts.  The box boasts no trans fat, but to make up for it the rest of the world’s fat is somehow injected into it.  It essentially looks like a deep-fried chicken quesadilla.  That’s a little crazy.  Then you read the box.  They didn’t just deep fry the quesadilla…They battered the tortilla first.  Why on earth would you do that?!  I don’t know what else to say.  Let’s just get on with it.

So the flour tortilla resembles a born tortilla.  Awesome.  Additionally it also seems there’s not a whole lot in there.  Let’s open it up for a better view.

Awesome, a little cheese and not much else.  Maybe some chicken.  Color me unimpressed.  For all the fat they’re dropping on you the inside should be better.  Drop the batter on the tortilla and add some chicken!  What did Heidi think?

First off let me just say lately I have not had an appetite for any frozen meal as I think I have had them all. And so when I saw this, I thought oooh something new to try…it is definitely different.

First off I can’t really taste anything except it gets really hot in my mouth and even then still no taste. There is hardly anything inside so I am basically eating a tortilla and melted cheese. Which I could have easily done on my own.

They say these are better prepared in a conventional oven which might make the taste better as microwaving them all the insides ran out onto the paper towel.

Hopefully I won’t get sick seeing as my stomach is burning now and there must be some kinda of secret spice laying wait in these things to make this happen. Two stars ONLY because I haven’t tried them in the oven and the lack of taste.
