Taste test comments
This tasted OK at the start but got worse as I progressed; meat is a little amped up in flavour; pasta is softer than others; meat is tender and a little fatty – not enough meat at all; sauce is nice and thick – tastes homemade; pasta could be a bit more al dente; it was a real turn-off how it looked uncooked so would be very unlikely to buy it; once cooked it had some slow-cooked meat and small pieces of zucchini and onions so not as bad as it initially looked.
