Episode 34: Bertolli Italian Sausage & Rigatoni

Posted by: Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master


Italian family name: check. Gold foiled packaging: check. Higher price tag: check. This Bertolli meal had all the fixins to be a sophisticated frozen meal for two. But then they went and ruined it by giving microwave directions. So you know I had to test it out and see if it tasted the way a $10 frozen meal should taste even while nuked in a microwave.

  • ps
    on things that don't do well in microwave, i cook at 1/2 power and they turn out fresh tasting!
  • i bought one of their dishes with shrimp and asparagus.
    it was good - almost very good - but so incredibly high in
    sodium you know that their testers have burnt out taste buds.

    i wrote them and said lower the sodium please - they emailed back - no free coupons - but said they think their sodium is fine.
    so we need to all nag them about the sodium to see if they'll eventually think about healthy living patrons.
    maybe they own stock in graveyards?

    WE love those Bertolli meals....We add more pasta to them to stretch them out cause they are too saucy anyway!

    We love Bertolli meals. They're a little pricey but pretty darn tasty...

    I do agree that you will need a pitcher of water when eating this meal. This being a Unilever product I get it much cheeper $4 at the company store. The food devision is coming out with some exciting new frozen products for 2009, hopefully they cut down the sodium content and healthier options.
  • Bertolli is the bomb! Try one with shrimp and make it on the stove top...good stuff
