Fresh, crunchy and peppery! Just the way I love it. I use a bake-at-home baguette, fresh from the oven and leave it to cool until it's just warm, and then I slice it longways, then across. Then lots of butter, some Marmite and a thick layer of watercress! Heaven!! I've eaten it this way since I was a kid and I'm now 76! Trouble is that it has a short season so I make the most of it when I can - and it's rich in iron and, I believe, vitamin C!
Tasty.
I love watercress, this nicely washed and dried. A tasty addition to a salad or sandwich. The pack has STRONG emblazoned across the pack. Believe me, this is nothing like strong. I used to collect watercress from our local stream as a lad 50 years ago, that was strong!!
Watercress prewashed was too wet and full of water
Not of its usual standard, far too wet, too much excess water in bag. Looked manky. Normally take it straight from the bag and put it into cold meat and salad sandwhich. Not possible this time.
Not good always receive soggy watercress, and have
Not good always receive soggy watercress, and have to search among the soogy, ones, to find dry.
Yellow within sell by date
Sell by date 6/6/21. Opened it today 5/5/21 and it is yellow and unusable.
It was off, well before the use-by date.
I went to use this 1 day before the use by date and it smelled awful and the leaves were all slimy and falling apart. I ended up binning it. Occasionally a few pieces have been a bit off in a bag, but this time it was the whole bag. This is one of those items you need to see in store before buying as thw quality is so variable and can be really bad. I won't buy this online again.
Disappointing
Not fresh. Doesn't say it is from Hampshire. So far has it travelled.It needs to be well chilled.
Only 1 day dated and unpleasant flavour.
Only 1 day date. Poor condition and tasted far too bitter with negligible watercress flavour.
Poor quality
Have used this product for years and the quality has been very good. Recently the condition of the watercress has become very poor. Yellow leaves and almost slimy stems. Product is still very much in date. States product of Spain, perhaps it is taking longer to get here?

I had to discard almost half of a bag. I found quite big watercress stalks that aren't enjoyable to eat.
