Pineapple Upside-Down Cake It Isn't

If you are a good food investigator (or a regular reader of this blog), you can immediately tell by the usual clues that this was a Family Meal.

The one missing clue is the missing milk, but that's because before I took the picture I got my yogurt drink and gave away my milk.

You weren't fooled, though, were you?

I'm sure you also know that I didn't eat the bits of ham that came in my salad and that I was unhappy with the cucumber.

As always, I took my bread and dipped it, bit by bit, into the "soup," and then proceeded to eat the rest of the main dish, using the spoon.

You probably can't tell by looking at the picture, but besides the big chunks of potato there were also a few big, delicious chunks of chicken in there.

I liked the "soup" enough to get seconds, but, unfortunately, the second time around I didn't get any bread and the big chunks of chicken turned to tiny chunks.

You can't win 'em all.

This meal also came with dessert, but I wasn't super happy with it, because custard isn't one of my favorites. It tasted fine, but it wasn't as good as some of the desserts we've had in the past.

 

The funny thing about this dessert, however, is that most kids eat it straight out of the container, even though you're actually supposed to peel the cover off, flip the container upside down, let air into the container by bending a special tab, and then lift the container up to expose the custard to your waiting spoon.

I have included a video of the process (from exactly one year ago!) for your viewing pleasure!
