Premium Armenian Dried Pears, 1 LB - Natural, No Sugar Added, Perfect for Snacking and Baking, Rich in Fiber and Vitamins

The picture on the website, the drawing, makes you think they were dried cut in half, vertically. But no--hey are whole and so chewy and so sweet, I am so pleased. Also since they are whole, they little seeds are still in there but they are soft and very small and easy to deal with. It is so worth it to get this fruit from this company because this fruit is always soft and chewy, not dry and brittle. I don't know how they do this but I love it. The peaches were wonderful that I ordered for Xmas last year for my friends and family. They make a great present. Added bonus is that they were delivered in 2 days!

They are dehydrated little pears, vacuum sealed in 5 packages. Pleasantly chewy texture (like a lot of dehydrated fruit) and very tasty. You can eat most whole, but some of the larger ones may have a few seeds for you to spit out.I'm very satisfied.However I will note that although it says no sugar added, pears are naturally high sugar fruits, and I guess either this variety or the drying process brings out that sugar even more, because these gave a sugar rush (quite reliably, 3 different times).Per the package it's almost 10g sugar (2.5 teaspoons) per piece! You may want to adhere to the suggested serving size on the package and have just 1-2 pieces at a time.

Great quality and taste. Sun dried and great texture. I would recommend this brand!

The flavor of the pears seems OK. The issue we had was the texture. It was just grainy and unpleasant.Some people might complain about it being too bouncy or something too but the major sticking point was the grainy texture and we did not eat more than one of the separate packages.

Trying a new cranberry pear sauce and no one had dried pears! Found them!

I only ate a half of a dried pear and I didn't like the taste. I wish I could return it but it said no returns and also I opened it. To me it didn't even taste like a pear.It wad to chewy and gummy.

I had never had dried pears before but I love pears and I always enjoy dried fruit so I figured why not give them a try. I'm glad I did. These are interesting in that they're WHOLE pears that are dried down into a much smaller size. They still have their stem, which is actually really nice to use to hold it to eat from. It's almost like a lollipop. They taste is nice. It definitely tastes like pears but maybe not as sweet and a little muted in flavor. But still quite enjoyable. The texture is chewy but not as chewy or gelled as dried pineapple. It's closer to dried apple slices, that chewy texture. They also have that graininess that fresh pears have. That texture comes through, too. You do have to watch out as you may sometimes get a pit in there but not with every one. I really like that the one pound bag comes with 5 individually wrapped bags of about 4 or 5 dried pears in each. This is great so you don't have to open the huge bag and risk them dring out before you finish them. The price nay seem high for a pound of fruit but you must remember that it's a pound of dried fruit so it took a lot more than a pound to get to this. Plus, these are really different and something special to try.

These pear slices were a delicious and spectacular. Looking addition to pair martinis for a special event. I highly recommend.
