According to Conagra Brands, Americans buy over 200 million cans of Chef Boyardee every year. 🍝🥫🌶️
Inside these massive food plants, precision machinery fills, seals, and cools thousands of cans within minutes. The cooling tunnel alone runs nearly 50 feet long, lined with jets of cold water that spray down in multiple stages. By the end of a single shift, this line can produce more than 200,000 cans of ravioli, each built to last for years on the shelf.
Captain Discovery takes you behind the scenes to uncover how canned comfort food is made on an industrial scale — from pasta to soup to chili — in How It’s Made: Chef Boyardee, Campbell’s Soup, Hormel Chili.
