Great Value Pitted Prunes, 18 oz

I think these are perfect - the size and the flavor/freshness are great. I was getting Sunsweet brand that were, originally 18 oz but noticed with the last container purchased they were only 16 oz but the cost was the same - so was the size of the container - couldn't figure it out. Then, one day I happened to turn the container over and, low and behold, there was a huge dimple in the bottom of it - there went the extra 2 oz. Plus, when I first opened the container, there was a terrible chemical smell! I left it open for a few days and, while the smell/nasty taste did fade a little, it never went totally away. Thought maybe it was a one-time thing so purchased another container (on sale this time at Meijer) but nope, the same nasties - ugh! Tried this one - much more economical than the others, the whole 18 ozs and everything was good. Would definitely recommend this brand (I cut up a couple and toss them in salads and also uses some sliced on sammies - just a suggestion).

These prunes are imported from various countries the sizes may vary slightly. The good news is they are high quality and well-packaged. I really enjoy them, you get real value for the money. I like prunes and have purchased more expensive brands, but now I choose to buy these, as a preference.
