" The Fat Veggie Indian Sandwich was more than I expected and was a very good portion size for what you pay for. "
"None of the items received are what were depicted in the photos. The grilled cheese sandwich was nothing extraordinary. The fried mushrooms were canned mushrooms battered and fried and definitely far from crispy. The corn was also canned and they didn't even bother to drain the canning fluid. Thought this would be a high quality vegetarian meal. Turned out greasy and cheap. Fast food would have had better quality. Photos are stock not real. Yuck!!!"
