A package of this ricotta and spinach ravioli from Trader Joe's was kept in the freezer (since the package says to keep it frozen), and when I opened the package I noticed there was a lot of ice inside.

When I cooked it, I followed the microwave instructions and heated it up for a total of 7 minutes.

The tomato sauce just tasted like an average tomato and garlic sauce, but it was a little bit watery (probably due to that ice). The inside of the ravioli had a neutral taste (not a strong cheese or spinach taste), which was OK with me.

Although it was a little bit watery, it was still good enough that I was able to eat the whole thing.

I tried some of this light vegetable soup because I was sick with a cold.

Just like with their chicken noodle soup, the noodles (spiral pasta) were OK, but all the vegetables seemed to just dissolve in my mouth. The soup had a strong, sour tomato taste that got worse as I ate more so I didn't really care much for it.

The last time I had a chicken noodle soup was several years ago, but I tried some of the Progresso Heart Healthy Chicken Noodle Soup since I was sick.

The taste of the soup was OK -- it was salty, but it didn't seem as overwhelmingly salty as some other soups. Both the celery and carrots in the soup seemed unnaturally soft, and they felt like they just dissolved in my mouth. The noodles were OK and didn't dissolve right away. There weren't a lot of chicken chunks, but I didn't really care for them, anyway. Overall, it just tasted like an average chicken noodle soup.
