Chef Boyardee Overstuffed Italian Sausage Ravioli, 15 oz, 12 Pack

Very tasty. This is the type of Cheese Ravioli I used to eat as a kid. For whatever reason, I can't find them in the stores here in Southern California. All of the canned Cheese Ravioli out here feature different sauces which are not to my liking. But this one tastes exactly like the ones my Mom bought for me as a kid.

I like them a lot, some folks complain but I can't. I like them!

After reading all of the dented can reviews, I wasn't sure what to expect. I did get 3 dented cans out of the 12- one was a mild ding, one was fair, and one was such that if I'd been picking it out at the grocery store, I would have looked for a different one- I just ate that one first. Oddly, they were cans that came from the MIDDLE of the case- so something that happened at the manufacturer- NOT Amazon. The cardboard tray was unscathed. ConAgra needs to do a quality control check on their can dinging area.Anyway, the flavor is pretty good. The first bite wasn't impressive, but since I'm on a fixed income, I only throw away stuff that is about to make me hurl, so I kept eating it. It got better, and I am glad I got the product. There were 7 ravioli in the whole can. That is a bit skimpy, but since it was going to be the only thing I had, I ate the whole can and was quite satisfied. The sauce is much more flavorful than the Chef-Boyardee regular beef ravioli that I had as a kid, and tastes more Italian.The WHOLE can has 480 calories, 10 gms of fat, 78 gms of carbs, and 18 gms of protein. There are also 10 gms of fiber in the whole can. The serving size says that the can is about 2 servings. Hmm.... maybe for a young kid, or if there was a good salad, and fruit on the side, but I have too much pain to make full meals. I have to make do. There are 1 1/2 cups of vegetables per can- so that's good.No preservatives or MSG. Unfortunately, it probably contains GMO sources of soy and wheat.I originally got these to have on hand for power outages, as I have a gas oven and could heat this up. The expiration date is for 2 years from now, so that's good. I can keep them in the pantry for such occasions, but can also see being fine with eating them on days when it's just too hard to come up with anything else.

I was really surprised by how good and filling these were! Firstly I’ve been eating Boyardee since I was a kid. And the last time I can remember eating the cheese raviolis was maybe the late 80s, early 90s. They seem to be a bit hard to find and expensive if you can find them. These finally came down to normal price here on amazon, I paid just 11$ for 12! What blew me away about these is the sauce is thick and robust, not light and watery like the beef raviolis. There is also a different flavor to the sauce here and I wish all boyardees used this sauce. Some delicious easy quick meals on the cheap here. Add a lil bit of grated Parmesan a touch of pepper and oregano with some bread and you are set. Highly recommend these if you can get them properly priced, especially over the beef ones

The last time I tasted the Chef's canned ravioli, I was a little kid and I loved them...which is why I ordered a case of the stuff. Big mistake.Chef Boyardee Overstuffed Italian Sausage Ravioli might be the perfect food for five year olds (especially if you don't care if they ever see six). The label claims "1/2 cup of vegetables in every serving," but the ingredients show it's mostly wheat, high fructose corn syrup and those multi-syllable non food things like stabilizers and food coloring.Of course if something tastes really good, I don't mind ingesting some doubtful igredients. I love chili dogs and I know that the stuff that seeing what went into a hot dog would make me cringe. But the taste is so good, I can get past tht. Chef Boyardee's product doesn't make you want to overlook the ingredients. It is not that good. First of all, the pasta is pasty and flavorless, with no discernable texture. The sauce, while full of tiny, mildly sausage flavored lumps, is very bland and with a slight sweetness that would spoil the taste for any discerning adult. This is baby food at best. Any kid who can eat a bowl of Lucky Charms without running away from home will probably love them.The label also indicates that a 15 ounce can provides two servings. It's mostly that sweet sauce, so I don't think an adult would be happy with half a can. Although eating the entire can seems like cruel and unusual punishment. I am not a purist and eat canned foods on occasion...Dennison's no-bean chili (on those chili dogs!), Hormel corned beef hash and roast beef hash (with a fried egg on top...really good); Hormel canned tamales are pretty good too...not nearly as good as the real thing, but not horrible either). And I eat a lot of canned soup--Juanita brand menudo is terrific. I know the home made stuff is better, but I'm never going to make menudo or tamales from scratch, so the canned varieties are a somewhat acceptable substitute. Not so the ravioli. I may never make ravioli from scratch either, but I'll do without before trying Chef Boyardee's offering again. It is not an option.I am not a prepper; I do keep some extra cans of this and that in the hall closet, along with water, extra catfood, batteries and about 30 flashlights. In other words, I'm a somewhat disorganized compulsive shopper who is afraid of the dark. I don't expect the world to end, but if there is an emergency, going hungry and thirsty won't help, so having something to fall back on isn't a bad idea. On the other hand, when the stuff hits the fan, try just calling out for pizza. If the situation so bad that you can't get Dominos on the phone, if it is The End of The World as We Know It, if the grid goes down, the dollar collapses, nuclear winter settles in, the zombies are marching, alien space ships hover overhead, an EMP knocks out everything electronic, solar flares shut us down and there's no place to run, just reach for the gin bottle. Sometimes that's the only smart alternative.Anyway, three stars because there is sausage of sorts in the sauce, I suspect youngsters will lap it up, and despite some chemicals, this is probably better than many other junk food options...certanly better than those strips of fried processed "chicken" from fast food outlets. And if you're used to eating spaghetti-Os and other pasta out of can, the texture and blandness won't come as a surprise. For those reasonas, a Fair (but not Good) rating.

This is a quick and easy lunch or dinner for vegetarians and is a good size for the price.

I bought these years ago for my family. These don’t taste the same, the sauce, the cheese aren’t what I remember. I’m sure somebody will eat them, just not me. On the plus side, the case arrived in perfect shape.

Here in southwest Philadelphia only the meat filled ravioli are distributed. That's what a couple of managers from different stores impressed upon me. Wondering if it's a West coast - east Coast thing. I love this CHEESE ravioli chef boy r dee. Been eating since a kid when on Saturday I would watch George the animal steel on wrestling.I can fills me up for a lunch that I wanted in a hurry. Shopping costs were too much then came prime. Much more affordable so I buy two cases of it.
