  • Amy's Kitchen came from humble beginnings and has exploded in size over the past three decades. It's factory in Santa Rosa makes about 250,000 meals per day. KTVU's Mike Mibach got the lucky ticket to get inside and see the magic behind its signature Thai Red Curry.

    Amy's Kitchen says its food is made with 'love.' Some at the factory say the job has left them injured.
    Some factory workers who make meals at the family business describe an unforgiving workplace that pushes them past the point of injury.

    Their frozen food is pricey but worth every penny, especially the Chinese noodles & vegetables in the cashew sauce. Their low sodium chunky tomato bisque soup is also the best soup of all time. I just hope they never sell out to one of the big food corporations. They are one of a kind and provide true authentic unmatched nutrition.

    Been eating Amy's for years. One of the better frozen food products. I think I like most of what I have tried. Lately been buying the vegatable lasagne, and that has a nice spicy flavor, not something you expect with lasagna. Even 7/11 carries a few Amy's items, which is pretty cool - they are not known for healthy food :)

    Amy's, you need a faster product cycle. You have a few real winners, like the cashew sauce noodles and the cheese enchiladas (without beans and rice). Nine days out of ten, those two rows are empty all the way to the back of the freezer in both Walmart stores where I live. But most of your products just sit there taking up space. Isn't it obvious that we don't like everything you do? Look at Lay's. They're 80% winner products. The losers disappear in a few weeks and you never see them again. Amy's is 10% winner and 90% meh.

      Out of the 5 I bought….3 Were thrown out after the first bite. The Thai Curry & black bean enchilada with the sauce were so gross they went right in the trash. I can’t remember what the 3rd was.
