About CREAMY PESTO PASTA, CREAMY PESTO
Meijer Creamy Pesto Pasta is a refrigerated prepared pasta product sold under the Meijer private-label brand of Meijer, Inc., the Grand Rapids, Michigan-based Midwest supercenter chain. It is a fully cooked, ready-to-eat or heat-and-serve deli item featuring cavatappi pasta in a creamy pesto-style sauce. The sauce base consists of heavy cream and whole milk enriched with vitamin D3, unsalted butter, and a combination of Romano cheese powder, Pecorino Romano (made from sheep's milk), Parmesan cheese powder, and Parmesan cheese — a four-cheese blend that forms the foundation of the savory profile. Corn starch and rice starch provide sauce viscosity. The pasta component is cooked cavatappi made from enriched durum wheat semolina. Roasted tomatoes (with canola oil, vinegar, garlic, and oregano) and basil pesto (canola oil, basil, Parmesan, garlic, rice vinegar) are separate embedded components providing contrast in color and flavor. Natural flavors are added.
