I don't think I've seen them before but apparently they've been around for a long time.
DH saw these at the store and brought home a couple. THEY ARE DELICIOUS! My new favorite pear because they taste so good and are so juicy. They're also not a hard pear.
Just spreading the word.
"RED d'ANJOU PEARS. Like d'Anjou pears, Red d'Anjou pears are often referred to as Red Danjou or Red Anjou pears! Red d'Anjou pears originated in the early 1950s as a bud sport growing on a green d'Anjou tree near Medford, Oregon."

Seems like I've seen them for years but I'm a little surprised to see them this time of year. They were probably from somewhere in the Southern Hemisphere.

I have been buying them for a long time, but I can't get them year round. Yes they are yummy & juicy.

Nothing new. I've been buying them for many years.

This is the first year our smaller Wegman's ever had them. They ARE delicious! I'm so glad I tried them.
I hope Wegman's continues to carry them. Really great chopped into a fresh salad too!

LOL, well I've never seen them here. I love pears, and the best part is that my husband doesn't so if I buy them they are all mine!!!! Yes I'm very greedy.

Hi @RespectLife
Thanks for the idea, I love fruit in salad. I like to do chopped apple with blue cheese crumbles and greens.
