Simplified Meals by Ginger — Local services in Slippery Rock

I would have given a 5 star rating but I found my most recent experience to be less pleasant than my previous visits. I have been getting 10 meals at a time every few months for a few years now. I hadn’t been in for several months but went today to get my usual 10. I put 10 meals in a bag as I usually do. Though I remember seeing that the prices had increased at some point on FB, I did not recall that the meals were no longer the same prices. When I got to the counter it was very clear that the girl was quite annoyed with me. She started off by asking if they were all the same price to which I was caught off guard. I was just doing what I always did in putting 10 of them in a bag. She proceeded to say that she guessed she could take them all out and look, however, I really got the impression that I was annoying her or something. Maybe next time it would be helpful to ask someone if they’ve ever been there when they walk in. Or greet them at all. And if you see them putting meals in a bag maybe call their attention to the fact that not all meals are the same price now. Or maybe they just don’t need annoying customers...

Looking back at my life, I can identify a series of milestones:  my first kiss, getting my driver's license, throwing the game-winning touchdown in the championship game, graduating high school, securing my first job, earning my first promotion, graduating Magna cum laude in college, and the birth of my children.

But no achievement, no endeavor, no glory, and no pleasure has been greater than the day I first walked into Simplified Meals by Ginger.

It was there that I was introduced to a fusion cuisine like no other; homestyle cooking with the refinement of fine dining with dishes spanning the globe. No matter what I'm in the mood for, Simplified Meals has what I'm craving.

From an everchanging line of hot meals at lunchtime to myriad choices in the cooler, ready in minutes on those busy nights, Simplified Meals has what my busy family is looking for.  Even my weird Uncle Pete likes it, and he hates everything - even kittens.

What's more, Simplified Meals doesn't take a bite out of the wallet.  If you're a busy mom or dad on a budget, but with a taste for quality, look no further than Simplified...

This place came highly recommended by a family member, so when my mother fell ill, we suggested to her this might be a nice thing to have around in the freezer, to make her life easier. While there, we also picked up a few meals for my husband to try, just out of curiosity. The place is nice, a little strange setup, but we asked a few questions to the lady working and she helped us. She was very friendly and kind. My mother was very unhappy with her meals. All of them. She described them as dry and bland. My husband was also very unhappy with what he tried. We are a family who cooks a lot, and assumed by all the good reviews that the food would be excellent. It was not, so I do not understand the raves. Also, there are a scant few vegetarian options and nothing vegan. In this day and age, one would assume that those options would be taken into...
