Summary

Imagine a small town in western Italy, home to a family-owned company that got its start canning fresh fruits and veggies more than 80 years ago. Now imagine that company in 2025, still owned by the same family, and still preserving the flavors of the local produce – not just in canned fruits and veggies, but in supremely satisfying sauces, too. And now imagine you're listening to a podcast… oh, wait, here's where reality and imagination intersect. In this episode of Inside Trader Joe's, we're up close and personal with the supplier of a number of Trader Joe's sauces – including Lemon Pesto, recently returned to our grocery shelves for a limited time. It's a captivating conversation that covers topics as wide-ranging as tradition and innovation, and definitely left us hungry for more. Pass the pesto, please! Transcript (PDF)
