Anna and SarahDried Fancy Pears in Resealable Bag, 2 Lbs

My only complaint is how moist these are, very sticky. Also I would have preferred for them to have been cut into quarter sized pieces vs halves.

Great product , I’d order again .

I put walnuts in them and roll them up for a treat! They are soft and chewy with the right amount of sweetness.

Without the extra juice it’s tempting to eat like a candy. Tastes just like pears but miniature.

excellent

Rubbing and rinsing the pears out in warm to hot water about 4-6 times seemed to get rid of the strong smell and taste, as sulfur dioxide is water-soluble. I'm willing to do that for now rather than throw out this purchase, tho admittedly I might tire of doing that after a while. Anyways, after this experience, I have to say I won't be buying dried fruit from this company again, even if it means I'm out of dried pears for a while. I have no problem with a normal amount of sulfur dioxide being applied, but this was really, really too much.I don't recommend waving the bag around to try to air it out, which I tried- your room will start to smell badly, and you won't notice any improvement. I haven't tried swapping the bag for a regular ziplock bag yet, but I will also see if that helps too.The outside of the bag was a bit unusual in that the only indication that this was a bag of dried pears was the sticker on the back (and even then, in not very large letters). Not a big deal, but others might be taken aback by that. So the product picture where it shows all sorts of fruit and doesn't say anything about pears- that's basically what you see on both sides of the bag.My rating here largely reflects the excessive sulfur dioxide application. It's 2 stars rather than 1 since I was able to figure out a way to still make use of these pears. But if I get tired of washing them (as I've only eaten a small amount of the bag so far)... I might drop it to 1 star. I should note that like others, I found myself coughing after the last time I ate them (when I tried airing out the bag- so I'm not sure if it's from sulfur dioxide not having been washed off sufficiently, or from having inhaled the sulfur dioxide).

The dried pears were way to sweet. I’d rather eat a fresh pear.

Strong Sulpher dioxide smell on opening and I could taste it on the pears. Disappointed. I am going to try washing the fruit before eating and possibly changing the fruit to a ziplock bag.
