OK Pesto
To assemble the garlic, fresh basil, Reggiano or Romano or Parma cheese, olive oil, attitude, mortar and pestle,then wham it all into a green paste, well, seems like luxury slavery for someone who has to work for a living, and it is hard enough even to boil up a pot of capellini, so what, you have to forever eat only tomato sauce on your pasta? But longing for something like Mama made, because she had superwoman strength even after a full time job and an iron will. Missing that particular taste kicked me into the search pane and tapping in "pesto" hoping the bot wouldn't shunt me to a list of bug zappers and various citronella coils or pfft cans to zap hapless insects, and yes. Tis and that and the other, then Barilla. Hey, they make pretty good noodles, so I threw money, as one does these days, you don't have to be a billionaire to take a chance with your hard earned cash. This stuff is not much like what ground under the pestle in the mortar in those long ago days when a parent cared what I ate, but quite good, considering that I only had to twist the top off a little jar. A definite maybe for your pasta, and worth a try, in case you've had enough tomato sauce, grated cheese with butter, another kind of schmaltz, ricotta, peanut butter or other dressing on your noodles.

Rustic Flavor
Thumbs down. I love basil and this sauce does not taste like fresh basil. The rustic flavor is bad honestly, the taste is like baked but maybe as if it was overcooked? It’s not fresh and tastes bad.

Shipping mistakes by Target and poor corrective action
Sent wrong item. A face product instead of food. Now target is not replacing the item until it receives the replacement and the party I planned required a trip to the store. I use Target delivery for ease and you have under delivered. I’ll be buying the replacements at Trader Joe’s and saving items for return to the store next time I can make it.

healthy, tasty and versatile
This stuff is great as pesto sauce but it's also versatile - you can mix with mayo to use as a sandwich spread or add a spoonful to a soup broth. and the ingredients are good.

Product was open/safety seal "popped"
The safety seal on the lid was popped, meaning the jar had already been opened. I returned the product.

Contains cashews
Warning: this is not pesto made with basil and garlic only; the label “photo” is misleading. There are cashews in it. When will these companies learn how to make a nut free pesto?!
