What are we looking for while reviewing Veeba Cheese Pasta Sauce? For a ready-to-use sauce, the flavor, texture, and convenience hold prime consideration. 

We also recorded the ingredients, but that was not a parameter that held as much importance as the product does not claim to be healthy or clean anyway. 

1. Taste

Cheese Alfredo sauce is a classic Italian pasta sauce recognized for its creamy and rich texture. The main ingredients in this sauce are butter, cream, parmesan cheese, garlic, and fresh parsley. 

How well is the sauce seasoned, the freshness, the flavor of cheese, and the depth of the overall flavor were gauged under this parameter. 

2. Texture 

Under this metric, we check the following points: 

• Consistency: How well does the sauce coat the pasta?
• Is the sauce completely smooth or does it have herby/veggie bits?
• How is the overall texture? Gloopy or rich, and creamy? 

3. Convenience 

Apart from vegetables and pasta, do we need to add any other ingredients? How convenient is the sauce to use?

Team Mishry’s Findings 

This cheese sauce by Veeba has an off-white color. We could spot plenty of mixed herbs and a few chilli flakes. 

In terms of the overall seasoning, the proportion of salt and herbs is very well balanced. The texture is creamy and rich, which contributes to the delightful mouthfeel. 

Talking about the hero ingredient, the cheese flavor was not up to the mark. It has a significant presence but lacks the freshness. We felt a hint of artificial flavor, which detracted from the entire experience. 

There is also a subtle sourness that affects the overall flavor.
