Today's trivia post - I have a problem with ravioli

Of course I couldn't be bothered making my own ravioli, and I imagine that like the majority of the population, my main exposure to it is via the pre-made stuff from the refrigerator in the supermarket, which can make for a quick meal.

But my beef (ha, a slight pun):  the filling never lives up to the description.  It doesn't matter what it's alleged to be on the packet, the filling is always a disappointment:  pasty, and with the slightest of flavour.  The only reason to eat ravioli at all is if there is a decent sauce on the outside.

I've also been unimpressed with the filling at a restaurant.   

It's just the least impressive way to eat pasta, and I think someone enterprising should do a lab test on things like alleged beef filling, because I would not be at all surprised if the protein content is hard to discern.   Then sue them.

Ravioli justice for all...
