O.M.G.thank you, thank you, thank you!

I tried them one day after purchase and they were quite hard. I then waited 6 days and WOW they are amazing!

Thank you again for the PSA!

I thought you were going to say that they were rotten, which wouldn’t have surprised me considering they are from TJ.

I'm a pear junkie. I think it's the most underrated fruit and so over looked

Or popcorn, friend eggs, avocado toast...my kids LOVE the TJ chili lime seasoning.

Yup, some pears taste better as counter-ripen pears. In your case, the pears probably were off the trees about 1-2 weeks + 1 weeks on your counter.
