Boom of ready meals in supermarkets

For several years now supermarkets have bet heavily on the section from ready meals. The rush of day to day, the lack of time to prepare quality food and growing people's concern for carrying a healthier diet have hatched conceding a successful to these initiatives.
Logically, not all the dishes prepared in these spaces are 100% healthy. There are dishes that are fried, for example. However, there are many others such as salads or the roast meat which are good alternatives. However, they will always be a better option than, for example, a Burger King, un McDonald’s, a pizza etc That is, we mostly talk about food with a lot of saturated y sugars.

Mercadona's "Ready to Eat"
The peculiarity of "Ready to eat" is that depending on the region in which we find ourselves, the dishes offered are different. Thus, in Madrid we can eat Madrid-style tripe or mixed paella and in Valencia, we can enjoy a orthodox paella. Something that makes a lot of sense, but not all supermarkets do. We even have the option to customize our plates. In this way if we want a pasta dish we can select the type of pasta (smooth or stuffed), combine the sauce or add cheese. The same goes for the salad.
Regarding the prices, they are quite Affordable, as in Carrefour and other supermarkets. The portions cost between 3 and 5 euros. The salads are around $4 and the sandwiches $3,5. The lentils or the bean stew 3 euros per serving. Thus, the price planet is $3,5 by prepared dish. Another aspect to assess is availability. It is true that in the case of Mercadona This service is found in supermarkets in the Destinations. the periphery of Madrid, for example, does not have this service. The same is true in other autonomous communities.
However, many supermarkets have this service ready meals. The only thing to try this new selection of prepared Christmas dishes, if you live far from the city, you will have to move a little. However, they are more than 750 stores Mercadona those that have this service, so there are many who can enjoy it.
