Surprisingly good

I’m usually disappointed with store-bought pesto. We are spoiled by our home made pesto. But this is a close second to home made - lots of bright, basil flavor, and even pinenuts.

Leaked everywhere before opening

Super bummed I wasn't able to use it. Leaked all over my pantry and by the time I was going to use it I noticed it was already spoiled with bubbles on the bottom. I'm guessing the seal wasn't tight enough.

DO NOT BUY

Exploded in my cabinet before I could try it. There was oil EVERYWHERE. What a pain to clean!! Why would this happen? I had only had it for a week.

Woah... that's a lot of garlic

Holy smokes!!! This was so raw garlicky. I thought it was expired when I opened it because of the amount of garlic. There must be 50 cloves of garlic in this jar.

Garlic is overpowering

Garlic is overpowering. Can't use it. The description on the jar said a "hint of garlic". When you open the jar, the smell of garlic is pungent, and it lingers in your kitchen. Much prefer the Kirkland basil pesto.

Italy in a bottle

If you want a quality product that tastes authentically like homemade by your Italian grandmother then you should definitely add this bottle of Pesto to your grocery list. Mangia!

Basil Pesto MESS

Never been able to taste it, I've purchased it twice and both times I've had a mess to clean up because the jar literally explodes and I ended up Thankfully getting a refund both times.

Outstanding value

Great taste, many uses, and outstanding value. I am confused why there are negative reviews based on the product spoiling in the pantry. I found it in the refrigerated section and the product container says to KEEP REFRIGERATED.
