Eastern Feast - Stuffed Grape Leaves, 4.4 Lbs (2 Kg) Vegan, Kosher

Reviewing as an adult American Male Not of Greek, Mediterranean or Arabic Origin (I didn't grow up eating these like Americans did potato chips):I find these are more palatable than the Yurt Brand. The Yurt's are still good, albeit that much more syruppy. and I write this is after sampling multiple brands, buying the smaller sizes to try out. Imo, everyone needs to try multiple brands to see what they dig most. I never did a side-by-side comparison taste test..But if you're a newbie, this is a safe bet. I've been repeatedly ordering the 4.4lb / 2Kg / "approx 75 pieces" variety. It's almost always available next day in my Amazon region. And this brand is just all around great to have around to nosh throughout the week.It's a really great staple food. Even better throughout the summer staple, when you're trying to eat cold foods and not fire up the range.I usually find 5-7 are mushy or broken open. But the majority are nice and firm. Or as firm as can be given the packaging options.Upon opening, I'll put on a pair of disposable medical gloves. Then carefully transfer the pieces into my sealable/ washable Tupperware container. Doing a kind of cross row arrangement. I'll usually eat the broken one mushy pieces as I gently transfer the mostly firm pieces.I'll then place it all in the fridge. And proceed to eat in small amounts throughout the following 1-2 weeks. The instructions say to "eat as soon as possible." As a single adult household, I'm almost always able to go through these within a week or two.Divide $24 by 7-10 days, with an easy go-to meal replacement if you're trying to limit food consumption.

Delicious!

These are delicious and reasonably priced. I highly recommend

They were good I shared them with my family on Easter I cooked 2lbs of ground beef(on side)and when combined in everyone palate’s they agreed tasted just like Nanny’s and Granny’s(rest in peace)without all the hard work time and mess I suppose you tell I’m a busy Man living in 2025 there’s no time to do anything these days

1st can was great, nice flavor, had a crunch/snap to the stuffed leaves. 2nd can boooo, all mushy and slimy 🤷. Bought the 2nd can (2.2kelos) because the 1st can was So yummy. 2nd can (2.2kelos) was a mess, it was all mushy and fell apart? 1st can (2.2.2kelos) was perfect, held together, 2nd can was a can of mush..

Having tasted much nicer dolmas than these, I find them too mushy and vinegary. And they definitely could do with more filling and slightly firmer rice. These are meagerly filled about 1/3 compared to other brands I've had before, and even then the rice is too mushy that you only get the texture of the vine leaves. The taste is also too vinegary. So, overall there isn't much taste to it expect for the vinegar.I'm still on the lookout for good dolmas, they seem inexistent.I really love the ones from Trader's Joes, for reference as to what I find tasty, balanced filling, seasoning and taste-wise, but they aren't available online for a decent price. So, I'm still looking.

I HAVE NOT TRIED ANY OTHER BRANDS, I SEEMED TO HAVE FOUND EXCACTLY WHAT I NEEDED AND WANTED HERE,

I did not enjoy these. The leaves were very old and tough.
