The pros: Â Trader Joe's Artichoke and Cheese Ravioli has a tasty filling that is much more artichoke and cheese than olive. The briny taste of the olives is present without much of the texture.
The cons: Â None come to mind, the ravioli in the refrigerated section is consistently good. I haven't actually tried any flavors that I hated.
The verdict: Â For $3.49 this is a tasty flavor variety ready in as little as 5 minutes after attaining boiling water. This is more artichoke with a subtle hint of olive. Being that I hate olives the way that Superman hates Kryptonite and Guy Fieri hates eggs, I can actually say I wouldn't mind eating this again and I would try this again. The pasta was tender in the allotted time. It was up to par with most of the other varieties available at Trader Joe's.
