Signature's Dried Plums Pitted Prunes, 3.5 Pounds

UPDATE:A lady at the store recently said she couldn't eat PLUMS, because her doctor told her to eat PRUNES. So, it occurred to me that maybe some people don't know the difference between Prunes and Plums! Here it is: They are basically the same thing. Just in a different form. PRUNES are a Drier version of PLUMS and PLUMS are Juicier than PRUNES. Both are delicious and both are high fiber. Both are excellent for your colon health and exceptional in recipes. Since Prunes are Drier than Plums, you can hydrate them more by heating water in the microwave for a minute or two. Then putting a few prunes into the heated water. Let them soak for 5 to 10 minutes. Then refrigerate, until cold and eat. It makes a sweet yummy, soft treat. They can be used nearly intermittently in recipes. If using Plums in place of prunes, reduce the liquid content slightly. If using Prunes in a recipe calling for Plums, add slightly to the liquids. HAPPY HOLIDAYSOriginal Review Below:WOW! I really Love These. They taste Great. Recently, I bought a large bag of Prunes at Sam's Club, because they were about the same size and less than half the price. Good Deal, right? Phew. I do not like the Member's Mark brand at all. Yuck!. Glad I just bought one bag. I use the Prunes and Plums for constipation mainly and they all work, but taste matters, too. These taste SOOO much better than the Member's Mark brand. I don't care if they're higher. They're worth it.I recommend these as they taste great and this is a large amount. Thank you for reading my review.

These dried plums are a true culinary delight, offering a perfect balance of natural sweetness and a touch of tartness that tantalizes the taste buds. Each prune is moist and tender, avoiding the all-too-common pitfall of being overly dried out. Their freshness is evident from the first bite, which is a testament to the care taken in their preparation and packaging.Whether enjoyed as a standalone snack or incorporated into various recipes, these dried plums add a depth of flavor that is both unique and satisfying. They work wonderfully in baked goods, lending a chewy texture and rich flavor to breads and pastries. Moreover, they are a fantastic addition to savory dishes, providing a subtle sweetness that complements meats and vegetables alike.In terms of health benefits, these prunes are not only delicious but also nutritious. They are packed with fiber, which aids in digestion, and contain antioxidants that support overall health. It’s a snack that you can feel good about indulging in at any time of the day.In conclusion, these dried plums are a standout choice for anyone looking for a fresh, flavorful, and versatile treat. They are a reminder of how simple ingredients, when treated with respect, can result in a product that is truly exceptional.I hope my review captures the essence of these delicious dried plums for you! If it does please give a thumbs up!

PRICE: 5/5First off, I used to purchase this very same brand at my local grocery store for around $6 per 12 ounces, which is a pretty steep price. Although they were the individually packaged ones, they were the only dried plums product from this brand that I could find anywhere (I have looked in over 5 different stores with no luck). I was so glad I decided to check out if Amazon carried any dried plum product since the ones in my grocery store were sold out for over 2 weeks. I was in shock at how much more I was paying at my grocery store versus this unbeatable price on Amazon ($10 for 3.5 POUNDS, is this real life?). These prunes could seriously last for months whereas the 12 ounces lasted me for less than 2 weeks. However, I do know that this is cheaper at Costco by one or two dollars, but keep in mind that Costco does not always carry the same products at every stores (or they suddenly remove products and replace them with new ones) so getting them here is a safe bet. Of course, if you don't have a Costco membership, this is the best deal you can get for the quality.QUALITY: 4/5Like I have stated previously, I used to purchase the individually packaged prunes from the same brand at my local grocery store. When I first tried these, they seemed a bit stiffer than the ones I used to buy (which were incredibly soft). The skin of the prune was more elastic, thus making it a bit harder to chew. This might be due to the lack of moisture and how tightly the prunes are compacted in the resealable bag. The inside of the prune had the same quality as the individual ones and were as soft. The plastic bag is very sturdy and comes with a resealable closure. Also, keep in mind these are not organic, but for this price, I'm not complaining.TASTE: 5/5The taste is perfect. These have a natural sweetness with NO ADDED SUGAR/SWEETENER making this the perfect guilt-free snack for when you have a sweet tooth or need some help in the bathroom (prunes have lots of fibers).OVERALL: 5/5If you love prunes, you have to get this product. It will save you so much money considering this is 3 POUNDS for only $10. It will save you time as well going to the grocery store and trying to find dried plums since I know the stores around me have limited selection and inventory of them (not sure why since they have so many health benefits and are delicious!)

very good and fresh

I’ve had these prunes before and they’re absolutely delicious but the ones I received expired on the last day of the month that when received them.

Great size bag, stays fresh a long time.

delicious and fresh prunes

Goid amount for the price. Real moist so I like mine more dry. I set them a few at a time on a paper towel for a few days.
