For lunch today is the Waldorf Chicken Salad Sandwich with V8 and an apple. When grabbing my lunch this morning, I realized the apple was actually supposed to go with the Wahoo Burger and the Sheffa Zesty Snack Mix with the Waldorf Chicken Salad Sandwich, but I had already made the mistake and taken the snack mix with the Wahoo so I just subbed in the apple.
Once again, I had to deal with the issue of a mayo based sandwich and whether or not to microwave. The sandwich was still pretty cold/possibly frozen, so I microwaved it in 30 second increments for a total of a minute. The sandwich ended up being a strange mix of some warm bites and some cold bites. I believe ideally this sandwich would work at a room temperature temp. One issue I've had is microwaving bread and the bun on the sandwich held up and tastes like regular bread--maybe because the sandwich was mostly defrosted and only microwaved in short increments?
The Waldorf Chicken Salad Sandwich is chunks of chicken, apple, cherries, and walnuts in mayo. Like a lot of the Diet to Go meals, it is good but not overly great. The apple is a standard apple on the smallish side. the V8 is typical low sodium V8. As I've said before, I appreciate it for the nutritional value but would prefer to get my vegetables in full form in order to enjoy eating rather than drinking and get the benefit of fiber which both fills you up and is food for digestive health.
Overall, I'd say the Waldorf Chicken Salad Sandwich is ok/good. It's not a meal I'd skip, but it's also not one I'd double up on in lieu of something else.
