What is a "TV dinner"?

A TV dinner, also known as a frozen dinner or ready meal, is a pre-packaged, frozen meal designed for quick and easy preparation, typically in a microwave or conventional oven. These meals usually come in a divided tray that separates different components, such as a main dish, side vegetables, and sometimes a dessert. TV dinners gained popularity in the mid-20th century as a convenient option for busy individuals and families, allowing them to enjoy a hot meal with minimal preparation time. The term "TV dinner" originated from the idea that these meals were convenient to eat while watching television.
