McCain Ratatouille Vegetable Mix

Taste

This frozen meal from McCain tastes overwhelmingly of tomatoes. It's obviously been sweetened quite a bit. The tomato base actually masks the tastes of the other vegetables. And frozen vegetable never taste good.

Look

Overwhelmingly red! Besides that, like squish vegetables you can't distinguish. Well, they win on the convenience front. You pop it out of the fridge, out of the box and straight into the oven. And viola, it's ready to eat.

C-factor

350g for $2 on special. I think I'll buy some real vegetables instead, even if I do have to wash and cut them.
