TASK DEFINITION: In this task, you're given a review from Amazon's food products. Your task is to generate a rating for the product on a scale of 1-5 based on the review. The rating means 1: extremely poor, 2: poor, 3: neutral or mixed, 4: good, 5: extremely good.
PROBLEM: This product is labeled "100% of what you want". But one look at the nutrition facts and you may not agree. While it contains 100% juice and vitamin C, no preservatives or sugar, it contains 135 calories, 15 mg of sodium, and a whopping 34 grams of carbohydrates. All this in a tiny 8.3 oz can! I also thought it was too sweet for my tastes, but I normally drink a diet carbonated beverage, so the sweetness did jump out at me. Just okay. I won't add this to my shopping list.

PROBLEM: I have to agree that these are likely factory seconds -- one of the cans in the pack I bought was half-full and weighed only 9 ounces (including the can!). There's supposed to 15 oz of food in there, much less the weight of the can itself (full cans weigh about 17 ounces.) If ConAgra didn't even check the weight of the cans before shipping them to Amazon, it seems to imply that they are selling lower-quality product to Amazon. The rest of the cans in the pack was fine, and I'm sure Amazon will take care of my problem with this transaction, but I definitely wouldn't recommend purchasing these unless you're willing to gamble a bit. The ravioli itself is good - I'd agree with the other reviews, it is tasty and relatively healthy for something out of a can. I wouldn't eat it every day, but it is a nice quick lunch or snack.

PROBLEM: Wonderful, smooth, satisfying decaf coffee with a fabulously rich flavor. No chemical aftertaste, like many decafs I've tried. Apparently, the Swiss Water Process used to decaffeinate this coffee leaves flavor intact, something I've found terribly disappointing in other brands. I've been VERY impressed by the flavor dimensions of this Riviera Sunset blend; served it to some neighbors (who simply won't touch decaf coffee) who were pleasantly surprised to find they actually enjoyed a cup of decaf. No bitter notes; my husband, who usually complains fervently about the flavor of decaf, has been asking for a cup of this every evening, after dinner. Believe me, this alone is QUITE an endorsement! I love using my <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0011528S0">Zojirushi CD-WBC30 Micom Electric 3-Liter Water Boiler and Warmer, Champagne Gold</a> for coffee, tea, and cooking. I brew my coffee a cup at a time with an individual Melitta brown paper filter <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001E5E0T2">Melitta Cone Coffee Filters, Natural Brown, No. 2, 100-Count Filters (Pack of 6)</a>and filter cone (similar to this one:<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001794Q0S">Ready Set Joe/Mug</a>) and found that the extra fine grind of the Riviera Sunset blend imparted an unusually rich, deliciously multidimensional flavor. Much fresher than conventional, by-the-pot coffee. This method also allows me to brew strong coffee (for me) and a milder version for my hubby. Take time to "bloom the grounds" first (add a little hot water to the fresh coffee grounds, moistening completely, and then wait about 30 seconds before brewing) for best flavor (this goes for ANY coffee). Melitta's Riviera Sunset decaf blend is enthusiastically recommended by a coffee snob! You'll love it as is, no sweeteners or creams needed to disguise this wonderful flavor. I look forward to ordering more. Update 9/21/10: Just ordered my first 3-pack through Subscribe & Save; great deal for some delicious decaf!
