Excellent value, taste, and meat replacement
These have been my primary source of protein for about half a year. They taste amazing when prepared correctly and are substantially cheaper than buying meat or tofu from the grocery store.
What I would recommend is not preparing them the way that it is indicated on the package. Submerging them in water for 10 minutes simply fills them with water. The strategy that I moved onto was putting a lot of spices into a bowl atop the curls. Then adding things like hot sauce, or soy sauce, or Worcestershire, or what ever your heart desires. Finally, add a little bit of water (do NOT submerge) and allow the curls to soak up the contents. You can add water in small bursts to continue the absorption process until the curls have the desired amount of hydration.
I have moved on to buying them directly from Butler in their very large "bulk" packaging, but I still strongly recommend this product in any facet.
