  1. Fine flavor, strange texture 1 people found this helpful
    Quality

    I bought one pantry can to try these, because I was skeptical. The only way we ever eat asparagus is fresh. So, the flavor did taste pretty similar to fresh. The texture was not even close... at all. It was even more spongy than frozen asparagus. I did find ways to use up that pantry can... I added it to a pasta primavera dish (in small amounts) along with other fresh veggies, and no one could tell that there was anything strange about this asparagus that way. But, about 90% of the time, when I cook asparagus, it's to use as a side dish with a meal, and this Thrive asparagus will not work for that at all. If I ever buy this again, it would be in a pantry can size, just to use sparingly in a pasta dish where it's not the main feature.

  2. Taste is great, texture is awful! 1 people found this helpful
    Quality

    The taste is there, it tastes pretty much like fresh asparagus! I was pleasantly surprised in that regard. But the texture is awful. Out of the can they are almost powder. If given to my toddler, when he picks them up and squeezes in the slightest they turn to powder. Then rehydrated, they have the texture of eating a sponge with asparagus flavor. I'll finish the can I bought, but won't be buying more.

  3. very good 1 people found this helpful

    I really like this.... so do my kids ...but hubby said nope to it...
    I knew why , it was "to moist"..so what I do to rehydrate it now is I put what I want to use in a colander and run water over it for a couple of seconds to get it all wet, shake it to get as much excess off as possible. Then I leave it to absorb the water as any extra drains off.Before I serve it I put it in the microwave for 30 secs with some butter and salt and he likes it that way ...I like it better that way too . and it is good out of the can too.
    I will have to get another can...we are going through this one pretty fast..lol..

  4. Yummy 1 people found this helpful
    Quality

    Was surprised that these are young, thin, tender shoots, not like what you frequently get at the store. Also, with the store produce you lose quite a bit when you snap off the ends. No loss here...takes seconds to hydrate. Put in last, as it cooks so quickly. Delicious. My 1 can test will become many more cans!

    This asparagus is amazing. I just throw them into soups, stews, in the crock pot--so easy and delicious you can eat them right out of the can with dip.
