\"President's<\/a><\/p>\n

As you probably already know, I have been seduced by PC’s<\/a> new line of products called Black Label<\/a>. The other day I was shopping and totally exhausted. I wanted a quick, easy but tasty dinner.<\/p>\n

The Product<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\"President's<\/a><\/p>\n

Normally I would turn to, yes, I admit it… A can of cream of mushroom soup to turn into a chicken and mushroom pasta dish for Reg. It was one of the first meals I learned how to make right after graduating from school and he loves it.<\/p>\n

When I discovered PC Black Label had a Wild Mushroom Finishing Sauce on sale for 50% off, I decided to splurge and pay the $3 and give it a try.<\/p>\n

Kitchen Test<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

\"President's<\/a><\/p>\n

I just cooked up some chicken and mushrooms, then added the sauce. Super easy.<\/p>\n

\"President's<\/a><\/p>\n

The sauce is made with portobello, shiitake and porcini mushrooms and Burgundy wine. What could be bad?

\"President's<\/a><\/p>\n

There was a lot of the flavour in our dinner. You could definitely taste the mushrooms and wine but something was not quite right. For the longest time, I couldn’t put my finger on it.<\/p>\n

Reg said it was OK but my version (with the can of mushroom soup) was better. And I have to admit… he was right. In the end I realized, it just tasted kind of fake. It just did not taste real<\/b> to me.<\/p>\n

Then I checked the ingredients. I don’t know if it was the cellulose gum<\/a>, the carrageenan<\/a> or the diglycerides<\/a> but something in there threw me off. Not only that, the sauce was so rich (main ingredient after water was whipping cream) that it gave me a stomach ache that night.<\/p>\n

Sadly, this is one Black Label product that I think was quite sub-par. I was expecting much higher quality and less commercial ingredients. It is flavourful but for me, not worth it. I give this product two out of five wooden spoons. <\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
