I tried 2 of the Home Chef Heat and Eat meals, both had the same weird taste. The first meal was the beef stroganoff with egg noodles which had a really bad after taste. The second meal was the homestyle meatloaf and red skin mashed potatoes. The meatloaf was delicious but the potatoes had the same funky after taste as the beef stroganoff. Not sure how fresh these meals are or what is making them taste so funny. I won't be purchasing them again.
