Meal-Time Frozen Dinners is a line of frozen meals produced by Value King in Rapture that are eaten on metal trays. Its mascot, Mr. Squaremeal, is a guy in a stylish suit with a meal tray for a face.

Some of the Splicers trapped in Fontaine's Department Store have cut out the face of the man on the poster to use as a mask to hide their deformities.
Behind the Scenes[]
- The ad for Meal-Time Frozen Dinners seems to be based on a 1940's ad for Benedict Peas. The man on the advertisement is a slightly altered royalty-free "Radio Announcer" clip art.
- Meal-Time Frozen Dinners were originally meant to make its first appearance in BioShock, which is evident by the fact that the advertising poster was designed by concept artist Robb Waters,[1] who didn't work on BioShock 2 (except for being credited under "Team").
