<p><b>Looks:</b> Oscar Mayer doesn&#8217;t specifically advertise the finished version of this product on the box, so you&#8217;ll just have to base the visual quality of this product on the picture in your mind when you think &#8220;Oscar Mayer Buffalo Chicken Deli Creation.&#8221; Not too far off, huh?  <i>4 out of 5</i></p>
<p><b>Taste:</b> The bread is soft and chewy, and the chicken is juicy if not a little over-processed. Those two ingredients make up the bulk of the sandwich; the cheese is just barely noticeable, and the sauce is a generic Ranch dressing. The bread really is good though, and in the end, it carries the meal. <i>3.5 out of 5</i></p>

<p><b>Looks:</b> I bet you can&#8217;t even tell which picture is the box and which is the real thing. <i>5 out of 5</i></p>
<p><b>Taste:</b> The succulence of the ham was matched only by the deep, earthy <i>je ne sais quoi</i> of the Kraft American cheddar.  The mayonnaise lent a savory (yet somehow fat-free) lightness to the sandwich that, together with the humble heartland flavor of the whole-grain bun, made this truly a sandwich not to be missed.</p>
<p>Just kidding &#8211; it was ok. Four inches of average bread combined with four inches of average ham combined with four inches of  average cheese topped with four inches of average mayo wins this sandwich an average score. <i>2.5 out of 5</i></p>

<p><b>Looks:</b> As you can see, my loaf was lopsided.  Maybe that&#8217;s intended, to make it seem more authentically homemade, but I found it offputting. Who wants to eat a lumpy loaf? Nobody.  Besides that, the bread didn&#8217;t brown to the same tone of brown as the bread on the packaging did, but that could have been due to cooking time.  <i>4 out of 5</i></p>
<p><b>Taste:</b> Good for coming out of a can.  The crust was flaky, and the bread was chewy and not too dry or too moist. However: there&#8217;s something off about Pillsbury bread products thought that I always taste &#8211; maybe it&#8217;s a preservative or whatever they use to keep it from sticking to the can, but every time, there&#8217;s a slightly-off aftertaste.  It&#8217;s not enough to spoil the taste itself though, so I give it <i>4 out of 5</i></p>

<p><b>Looks:</b> I did not expect this to score any higher than a 3, but what can I say?  Once it&#8217;s sliced, the meatloaf in the box matches the meatloaf on the box. <i>5 out of 5</i></p>
<p><b>Taste:</b> While it&#8217;s not the best meatloaf I&#8217;ve ever had (that honor is tied between my mom&#8217;s meatloaf with cheese on top and the lamb meatloaf at <a href="http://www.santorinimn.com/">Santorini</a>), it&#8217;s surprisingly good for only taking four minutes to microwave. It was a little oily, and the meat grind was overly smooth, but I would probably buy this again if I&#8217;m ever in the market for pre-made meatloaf. <i>3.5 out of 5</i></p>
