I had Chinese food for tea tonight

I had Chinese food for tea tonight,
not the kind you get from a nice hot shop,
but the kind you get from a packet,
fried in a wok,
hot prawn previously frozen,
not fresh from the sea,
freeze dried pineapple and syrup like honey,
garlic powder for marinade,
sweet and sour sauce full of E numbers,
not home made.
sticky noodles that cling together,
and loose all heat as well as flavour. 
no flavoured rice or cashew nuts,
no if or and's and no buts.
washed down with a nice cool drink,
tap water made cold by running it down the sink.
