Are these cherries dead as well as being dried, or are they zombie cherries? It's important to be specific about this sort of thing.

I can swear to you that I have never seen these cherries rouse themselves and move around in shuffling mobs, unless I have been drinking heavily.

They're dried. They're not dead and I don't allow zombies in my house so they're not zombies. They're dried even though they're labeled as died. They did not die. They just got dried.

Mmmm mmmm zombie cherries!! No wonder I liked these cherries so much! You should really try them and recommend to others... they are almost as good as... Yep you guessed it..."braaains!"

Sorry, I'm no help. I've never heard of dead or zombie cherries I've only heard of dried. I would recommend you contact Costco, Kirkland is their brand.

i too, am not really sure, i can only say what everyone else said, that since they are dehydrated, and sealed, i'm sure they will last a very long time .. not eternity, mind you, but a very long time .. but since they are so delicious i don't thing they would last too long . Yum !

Hello, Ms. Abaker,I bought just two of these bags, and most of the dates were moist enough. Therefore I ate them the way they were.As for the few dry ones, they are still edible as such; more chewing is needed. If you want to bring them to their natural state just after cropping, no chance. My mother used to keep dried fruits in water (especially prunes and peaches), for a few hours, but they never returned to their natural texture and consistency.IMO, children will enjoy the dates the way they are. I still do, despite my age.

I answered before. Let me expand on my "no". I gave my plants water and air, and kept them in indirect light. Both died; can't understand why.

these are dried, as in tea you buy in pkgs. at your grocery store. makes delicious tea. Fresh flowers would mildew and rot.

They were clear enough to see cherries in the jello. I could also make out if they were store bought maraschino cherries or home grown. Your question is based off interpretation of translucent and just how much light and detail you are looking for. The bottoms are thicker and may be what's giving the translucent look in the picture.

I ate them right out of the bag. They are dried. This was the cheapest I had found them and I am still kicking!

It may be the drought, it may be that cherries are out of season now. I bought fresh cherried in Travers City, Michigan at a farm stand last week and they were terrible.I should have known better, only one farm stand had cherries and they definitely had been stored a while. Peaches and blackberries were in season.

Mostly they are very moist. Occasionally, there may be one or two with kind of a silvery coating but it's crystallized fruit sugar. I just discard those and eat the rest. I have bought some in the stores that were hard and dry but not the ones I've ordered from Amazon. Don't keep them in a hot place and eat them in a reasonable time; don't let them get stale.

They're supposed to be good to eat raw or to pickle; however, ours never did grow at all. We planted them mainly as a vine to cover a trellis at a preschool, hoping that the kids could also pick the fruits. But, like I said, they didn't grow at all--and our tomatoes, cabbages, blackberries, sunflowers and other plants are thriving, so it wasn't bad weather/bad gardening. Maybe just not suited to our area?

In my case it grew into a wild strawberry not black. I have a lot of very fragrant small red berried. I think you right are about the scam! They came directly from the woods as wild as could be.

I don't know but these berries are hard and dry and kind of tart or sour, not very sweet; there is no way they are going to go bad, I think they would keep for a really long time. I haven't even tried eating them the way they are, by the way; I re-hydrate them first in water, then put them in the blender with some other fruit.

The cherries need not be refrigerated - though I would recommend keeping them in the dark. I keep the extra bags in the freezer. I checked the bags but did not see any indication of shelf life on the packaging (if you are considering long term storage without refrigeration/freezing).

I have no idea what kind of cherries were in the cans that I bought. I just know that my family didn't like them, and when I tasted one it tasted like it had been in the can way, way too long. Tasted "old."

These are hard candies. If you don't get them wet, it should be a long, long time. Over a year.

I have used the Jam function I had some freeze dried fruit. reconstituted the freeze dried cherries and strawberries dumped them added water sugar and pectin. It works fine. You can run the cycle again if it's too liquid.

mine both lost their leaves even though I had them over a year, then the got new ones last fall, then lost them again for winter. Now they are both fully leafed out and growing like crazy. Even if you think it's dead, it's probably not!
