Foster's Pickled Okra

Very good but pricey

These are so good. They come sealed and I've never had a leak in any of the Foster's pickled items I get. The okra itself is great, nice and crunchy but not too slimy or vinegar-y. I reuse the brine AND the jars. It's more expensive than other pickled okras but to me, Foster's is worth it when I can get it.

Low calorie, tasty, and crunchy makes these veggies a go to in my fridge! Many times, I can find them cheaper at TJ MAX or HOME GOODS but it's just the luck of the draw when it comes to finding them on a shelf. Writing this review is making me hungry! It's down to the fridge right now where they're waiting for me. I always have a few jars on hand! I even use the left over liquid to marinate some of my own veggies.

Foster's pickling recipe is always my favorite. I love okra, so this was an easy decision. Having tried several brands, I love this brands flavor, but gave it 4 stars because they weren't as crisp as I prefer. They had some crunch, but I have had other brands that were not as flavorful but had the best crispiness, which for me is a high priority.

I don't have another brand to compare Fosters to, but these pickled okra are very good to snack on, or add to your lunch plate. Honestly, you can get them less expensively at places like Homegoods, TJMaxx, Marshall's, etc., but it's hit or miss, and you can wind up waiting months before seeing them there again.

My wife and I always have a jar of pickled okra in our 'fridge. So we're ideal customers, obviously. And it just happened recently that our favorite brand seemed to be missing in local stores. So we went online and purchased a three-pack of Fosters. First of all, the package was excellent! There was great padding inside the product box. All three jars arrived in perfect condition. But the real point of this review is: The crunch and the taste! These are great. In fact, we'll be future customers. One other observation for okra fans: Some brands pickle longer pods and those pods sometimes are just a little stringy, in our experience. These jars we received are packed with what we would call medium-sized pods, which we really like. They're crunchy but they're also nicely chewable. We highly recommend this brand!

Great product. I will order again. Shipping was excellent.

If you’re looking for crisp… it is not. Also product is non refundable.
