Great Value Pitted Dark Sweet Cherries, 16 oz (Frozen)

My go-to breakfast is frozen cherries over plain Greek yogurt, sprinkled with walnuts -- or granola if I'm feeling indulgent. I try to keep these in my freezer at all times, not just for breakfast but for smoothies or general snacking. I will admit, I was hesitant to try this brand. My dad was a big fan, but he was also extremely frugal and did not mind sacrificing quality to save a few bucks. But he died last year, leaving a lot of Great Value frozen foods behind. Rather than let them go to waste, I started eating them, and it's when I learned that Great Value stuff is actually really good -- these cherries especially. They are uniformly sweet, ripe, and dark red-- though size can vary, as can juice content. (Some bags have more cherry juice than others.) Every once in awhile, I get a pit, but that's to be expected with cherries. These offer a good value for money, and Walmart has them in stock year-round. I've probably bought at least 100 of these bags, and if I get sick of frozen cherries, it won't be because of the product quality. Happy to give it a 5 star review

I enjoy these cherries regularly in my morning smoothie. They are excellent on their own or with banana added. For a small smoothie I use 6 frozen cherries, five heaping tbsp of plain greek yogurt, 3 tsp of chia seeds and top with whatever fruit juice I have on hand. There is no need to add sugar because they are very sweet. They are also a great topping for ice cream.
