Have you tried them? I did try cheap balsamic once, but it wasn't as
complimentary a flavor as I thought it would be. Half the water? It
doesn't cover 1 lb. as it is, they end up more steamed than boiled.
And yes, they do have a lot of spice, but served warm with bread for
dunking and they are heavenly. Even my mushroom hating friend
grudgingly admitted that they were "pretty good".
