Tinned Pears ???

[BeaLola]

.... where can I find them ? Everywhere I look there is tinned pineapple, mandarins, grapefruit even rhubarb but no pears

I don't want fresh ones - I was going to get the tinned ones to do a recipe for my DH who loves pears - I detest them

I haven’t seen them for a while but I think last time was in Waitrose.

I love tinned pears, haven’t had them for years! Will try Waitrose thanks.

My local Morrisons has them.

I buy them in Lidl, they're delicious!

My local Asda, co-op and Iceland has them

@BeaLola Asda sell them I use them a lot and I found some Princes brand in co op the other day when I had none in stock and needed for a recipe
lovely with blue cheese and roasted walnuts in a salad and lovely for crumbles with frozen berries. I haven’t seen them in Lidl though
actually nicer than fresh pears often

Last time I saw them was in a large Sainsbury’s.

Thank you all - I had tried Aldi, Lidl, Sainsburys, Waitrose & MaS

There is a coop and Asda a little further away - will try there

Asda, Tesco’s I think. Morrisons probably too. Depending on the size of the store. But when I googled tinned pears Morrisons, along the top it brought up lots of other stores that sell them. Also Del Monte, so anywhere that sells that brand should have them too.

We get them delivered regularly on our Morrisons delivery.

Was just coming to say Morrisons my parents buy them there.

Thanks that super helpful - DH could be getting his dessert quite soon

Tesco and Sainsburys both have them online. Maybe you would find them in their larger stores.

Trying to find gooseberries- tinned, fresh, frozen anyway. They are no where to be seen. Tried growing them without success. Any ideas??

I get them regularly from Tesco.

@cherrytree12345 gooseberries aren’t a profitable crop anymore and they are very seasonal in UK. Shame really, my Gran used to grow them and make jam and it was lovely

Love tinned pears!

I like tinned pears.

I got some in Tesco the other day to make sorbet.

I buy them regularly from Tesco

Tesco vote here too.

But if you dont want the sliced look for mixed fruit cans as they will have about 1/2 a can of cube size pare.

If you bake sponges use the rest of the fruit as if they are wet raisins etc
Or add to plain yogart

I get them regularly in our large Tesco.

Lidl but they don't always have them, when they do I stock up, it's a larger than normal size tin and good value although there is always one rock hard pear in there! That problem though is not confined to Lidl, I always seem to get one.
