I broke down and bought a case of microwave popcorn today for DS1 for vacation and when he needs a quick snack and I can't make actual popcorn. I also bought a 12.5 lbs container of popcorn kernels (that lasts a few months here. lol)
The ready cut melon creeps me out, I just think it looks slimy. But there is nothing like cutting melon and having the kids "sneak" it faster than you can cut it. Never thought about the shredded cheeses, I buy it in bulk and separate it into bags and throw in the freezer. Scratch that, I buy blocks of mozzarella and shred for pizza.
