Pros:Fresh, tasty, colorful
Cons:none!
The Bottom Line: Try COMSTOCK Premium Strawberry Pie Filling or Topping; you will never try another brand again!
Is it a fact that food products that have a brand name are always better in taste and quality than store brands or no frills foods of the same type? Have you ever done a taste test or tried preparing your favorite recipes using a brand name food product as well as the less expensive store brand or no frills food product?
Well, I did, and in the case of COMSTOCK *Premium* Strawberry Pie Filling or Topping, I must highly recommend COMSTOCK for all of your baking and fruit toppings.
My family recently purchased a Cuisinart waffle maker after thoroughly enjoying waffles while staying in a Chicago hotel. On the first morning that we patted our bellies and licked our lips after finishing those scrumptious waffles, my husband decided that we would be making waffles at home!
I believe that it wasn't the waffles that tasted so good, but it was the strawberry topping that we piled on top that made those waffles taste great! Being the busy body that I am, I had to know what brand the strawberry topping that the hotel kitchen staff was using morning after morning.
I sure did stop one of the kitchen employees and whispered into her ear to please share that information on the strawberries with me. Not only did she tell me that the hotel uses COMSTOCK toppings, she proceeded to show me a giant can of strawberry topping with the name COMSTOCK prominently printed on on the label.
Taste Test
The first batch of waffles that my family ate at home, made on our new waffle maker, was okay. That's right, just average. My husband had shopped for the batter mix, the
toppings and the other groceries. We were all set for a fabulous waffle breakfast like the ones we enjoyed in the hotel. But, although, tasty, the waffles were not (((TASTY)))!!.
I shared my opinion with my husband and he actually agreed with me! While trying to figure out what was different about our waffles, he finally told me that he had bought ShopRite strawberry topping and blueberry topping! Egads! This was the difference!
COMSTOCK *Premium* Strawberry Topping or Pie Filling tastes so much better than the store brand that ruined our special breakfast!
What's the Difference
The first thing that we noticed that alerted us to the difference in the store brand and COMSTOCK is that our personal choice seemed sweeter, riper and fresher...just like real fresh strawberries!
In the store brand strawberry topping we found little pieces of strawberry that should not have been included in the can! Like the strawberry tops and bottoms. Oversight by the ShopRite canneries? Probably.
COMSTOCK offers consumers the best top quality strawberries in every can of delicious and nutritious delights. Every recipe that calls for strawberries is enhanced by the natural sweetness.
What's In the Can
COMSTOCK *Premium* Strawberry Pie Filling or Topping is very natural without any arificial sweeteners. Fresh strawberries, Corn starch (added for thickening), water and citric acid are the main ingredients in every 21 ounce can. A bit of artificial color (RED 40) is added to help to keep the strawberries a brilliant red color.
If nutrition is as important to you as it is to my family, then please consider these facts:

Final Thoughts and Recommendations
I have only good things to share about this fine product! I do not necessarily advocate only purchasing brand name food commodities, but if it is great taste, excellent texture, and top quality fruit fillings and toppings, I have to highly recommend buying COMSTOCK *Premium* Strawberry Pie Filling and Topping.
You will love the enhanced flavor, not artificial flavor as in some store brand strawberries. You will delight in the way it makes all of your preparations that much more special.
Take your own taste test and see if you don't notice the difference.
