Nothing like the picture!
Meat looked nothing like the picture on the box and Kraft has yet to respond to my inquiry/complaint. Pretty disappointed, other "Crave" meals (ok, I think the only other one we've tried is the macaroni) were good.
Value for the money
I bought two of these the other day. I have never tried any of these before. It was easy to heat in the microwave. I was hoping for an option to cook it in the toaster oven because a microwaved food often has that "microwaved" taste. This was delicious! I look forward to having the second one and will definitely be buying it again. I'll also try any other types they might have. It is spicy and sweet, just like advertised. For the price, this is a winner for me.
Tastes better then it smells
Looks absolutely horrible compared to the mound of shredded meat they show on the cover. There is no shredded meat whatsoever and the meat included is far from the point of shredding. Huge chunks of yam amid the greasy chunks of mystery meat, tastes better then it smells. I’ve tried a pasta one that was much better
Not for me, but not bad
I find frozen meals to be very generic (fettuccine alfredo from any brand tastes the same and lacks a certain boldness), but this particular meal was pretty good. I found it spicier than I expected, and I'm not overly fond of spicy. Someone who likes really spicy food would probably laugh about how I find it spicy.
The pork itself is good, but the sweet and sour sauce is TOO SWEET for me too. I've been cutting back on sugar so this could just be me being overly sensitive.
My main issue is that the film covering the meal wasn't perfectly sealed when I opened the box, which I think led to the pork being slightly freezer burnt.
Overall, I probably won't buy this one again, but I'll be checking out other Crave products. I think the seal being imperfect was likely a one-off.
Very Spicy Sweet Potato
I found the spicy sweet potatoes incredibly spicy, my mouth is still burning...I think a seasoned sweet potato would be a much better choice especially for
the Senior buyers. The flavour of the pulled pork was excellent, so if the sweet potatoes are ever toned down considerably I would buy this again, however only then.....
Disgusting! Inedible and gross.
Okay, I feel bad about sharing my review but I had to because I want to save others from eating this horrible frozen meal.
The packaging looked great, the images looked yummy and then I opened the package and as always with frozen meals you expect it not to look like the picture. Awesome food photography though!
The actual pulled pork, looked more like pork wet dog food. The pork was also was inconsistent in flavour and even kind of tasted rotten. I mean I'm not a connoisseur, because I actually eat frozen meals on the regular. The only redeeming quality was the sweet potatoes, but they also only tasted mediocre. I mean at least it tasted like sweet potato.
But the pulled pork did not even look like pulled pork. In fact it even looked like there was a whole lot less pulled pork and more sauce than anything else. The flavour although interesting was waaaay too mustardy.
There was a sweet tangy, but more like bbq with mustard mixed in it.
I looked to find out who the company was who make it, and it's Kraft? I mean really, usually they are better than that. It turns out there is a similar one in the US called Devour. I have not tried any other flavours and considering that I paid like 3.50 on sale for this product that looked super appetizing but honestly made me think of dog food. I'm actually afraid to try any others under the Crave line.
