I heated up the mini rice with chicken and vegetables and when opening, I stirred it and my spoon got a hold of a piece of hair. As I went to pull it, it was very long. Mind you this was for my 10 month old baby. Very unsanitary.

I am 69 years old, I have been eating your products since the 60s and will continue to purchase your products. My point is, I own an engineering support group for the automotive industry and quality is our number one priority.

I have multiple degrees in business, including a doctorate in business administration. I would make a bet that you have not had many complaints like this so that is why it keeps on happening, I would suggest you run a check on your cutter and make sure it is following completely through with its cuts pertaining to the meatballs.

I hate to bother you with this, but this has been happening for the past 6 months, and it's a pet peeve of mine. I have a huge thirst for knowledge, so could you please let me know what you found?

I need to talk to someone and see why they do not make chili mac anymore

Chef boyardee used to make chili mac now they stop selling it well you need to start making it again and sell it in the stores in Memphis it is a good product and it tastes good and what happened to the chef boyardee frozen pizzas they used to have back in the '70s and early '80s.

Grew up loving their products especially ravioli, now all juice less bland tasting raviili

Will never buy their products again unless they stop using so much water or other questionable ingredients and bring back size and taste of their original products. I would never feed their new products to a child.

Bad batch?

hello i am a 63 year old woman that has been addicted to your mini ravioli. i can eat an entire large can after work no problem.

recently i had purchased 4 large cans i opened the first can and dumped it into a bowl to microwave and it looked really strange, the sauce wasnt liquid it was all lumps and looked curdled i heated it up and had to throw it out it was horrible and also the pouches had all fallen apart they were not staying together.

it turned me off so i didnt open another can until about a week later, same situation, threw it out. couple weeks went by and opend the 3rd can same thing by now i was made as these are 4 dollars a can i am throwing out, so i decided to save it and take back to store along with 4th can i did not check any dates or numbers on the cans i wish i had because i would bet that they were all made in the same batch, the 3rd and 4th can that i was going to return i ended up throwing out as they began to stink but 16 dollars worth just thrown away and to be honest its really turned me off of something i truly used to love, OH and same thing with all, the pouches not staying together all dividing backs coming off or fronts coming off and sauce all curdly anyway i am sure i can not possibly be the only one that had this issue with 4 large cans, i have never ever had a problem in all the years i have been buying the mini ravioli but recently its been un edible.

Was eating and found a piece of electrical tape in the can. I have pictures if needed. Definitely won't eat out of the can again. Unfortunately this happens because this is my favorite name brand.

Preferred solution: I don't know. Was just looking to report it.

User's recommendation: Don't just eat out of the can like I do or you will possibly find objects after consuming some.

Chef Boyardee - Disappointed
Im very disappointed in my lasagna in the cup. My daughter used to love eating you lasagna cups but she noticed that you changed the recipe and I agree. I remember when it was more rich, with chunks of tomato in it, but not it taste like your can version. I wish, that you could change the recipe back to the original. I put the bar number from one of my many lasagna that I have.

Complaint about product quality

I was raised on Chef products! As an adult, I've consumed thousands, if not tens of thousands, of cans of these products. What happened to the raviolis??? This product is now disgusting! The sauce has been completely changed, watery and zero flavor! Black spots resembling dead insect abound in the "meat"
View full review
Pros:
  • Easy and my kid use to love them
Cons:
  • Product quality and dead insects

Preferred solution: I want the product to return to the original recipie

User's recommendation: Do not buy any product until quality is addressed

I also found the same thing in the Micro Mini Raviolis in the plastic container last week. It just didn’t taste right so I looked around in it and found what looked like a small dead mosquito.

I love the traditional Beef Raviolis in the can. I’m not looking for anything special.

I just wanted you to know my experience I won’t be buying any of your products for a long time. Shirley Maylene Al
