In addition, Amy's products do not contain genetically modified organisms or hydrogenated fats or oils.”
Amy’s Kitchen has manufacturing operations in Santa Rosa and Medford, Ore., and employs about 1,700, including 1,000 in Sonoma County.

Dear Amy,
Thank you for putting gluten free Cream of Rice in a bowl. It is always nice to be able to eat hot cereal at work. Since I am a celiac I can't just open a packet of instant oatmeal and go, so this new product is really nice. It tasted great with the agave sweetener and soothed my soul this cold and rainy morning.
Thank you!
Denise

From someone who spent three years living in Italy and despises "Italian food" in America, this soup left me gape-mouthed. From the first spoonful I felt as though I could've been in a family run restaurant in Florence where I lived. I gaff at those in Michigan who offer to take me to an Italian restaurant here...nothing ever compares, let alone finding a canned soup that takes me back to the motherland. Seriously. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Now if only I can resist the temptation to pass it off as homemade to my family and friends...Saluti!
