Goya Foods Whole Hearts of Palm (Palmitos), 14.1 Ounce (Pack of 12)

Yum! My cans look good. Havent eaten through the case yet, but what I have had has been lovely. I never had Hearts of Palm before. I only learned of them through trying (and loving) "pasta" made from it. Then one day I decided to give these a try. I am so glad I did! Slight artichoke flavor. Neat texture. Mostly firm on outside, more soft in center. Great snack. From reviews, I am not sure exactly what it is supposed to be. I imagine not mush, so hopefully none of my cans are like that. I havent figured out what I want to do with these recipe-wise. So far, I like just eating them direct from can. I already ordered another case as I think they will be part of my diet (so long as I can afford them--pricy!)

I ordered these as snacks in place of potato chips or the like. I love them and reordered another case. And , yes, one of my cats also loves them.

Tastes great! Only complaint is some cans came dented pretty badly - but that's probably shipping verses product. Overall, if you like Hearts of Palm - these are really good.

I love Goya hearts of palm but this is a bad batch. On average, there is one edible palm stick in each can, the majority are tough/hard and splintered vs the normal soft delicious texture. I was so sad because I look forward to them as a major staple in my diet.

Great quality and my preferred brand. I would have given five stars, but for a while there half of each order came dented.

These canned palmitos (hearts of palm) aren't bad. A bit softer than ones you might find fresh in Brazil but acceptable. I like them sliced in salads to provide interest; the slightly sour flavor and interesting texture and flavor make for a better salad experience. (A bit like adding artichoke hearts without the sweet-ish aftertaste.) One of the best soups I had in my life was a cream of hearts of palm in Sao Paolo years ago. You might substitute these for asparagus in a cream soup and see how it turns out.

I’m giving this product 3 stars because the cans arrived in good condition with no dents. However, the taste and texture were not what I expected. I ordered the chopped hearts of palm, and compared to other brands I’ve tried, these were very different. The texture was somewhat similar to apples, but not as crunchy—it just didn’t have that tender, slightly crisp texture that hearts of palm usually have. The flavor was also much more bland, and it didn’t really taste like hearts of palm to me. Overall, it just wasn’t for me, and I will not be ordering this again.”

I buy this item often. My husband and I thoroughly enjoy sharing them as a low calorie snack. They are so satisfying, and taste great. The price is great too. I definitely recommend this product to my friends, and often share them with company. I love them.
