Default Comice Pears...where have they been all my life?

I bought a crate of these at Costco the other day and I have to say
these are some seriously good eating! Way juicier than Bartlett's. Ok,
I admit, until last year when I was sent a gift of the Royal Riviera
pears from Harry & David, I'd never tried one that I can remember. Now,
I'm seriously hooked. There were about 16 pears in the crate...we're
down to 2.



I like to keep a Comice around 'till it's brown-yellow and quite soft. Eat it over
the sink. Yuuuum.

Wasn't this the pear that used to be advertised as "The Pear You Eat With A Spoon"?


Yep, that would be the one. And you can too. I do. I don't like the skin much...tough
stuff that. So I slice them in half and eat them with a spoon. Very juicy and sweet
and delicious
