Mrs t’s Pierogies review
The purpose of this post is to tell give you a quick review of Mrs t’s pierogies. Why do I know anything about Polish pierogi? The reason is I am an American but I am also Polish, I live in Krakow, Poland. And as you can guess, I love to make and eat Polish pierogies, and yes I am a guy.
There is nothing wrong with this company ethically or anything, it was started as a family run food company. But there is nothing exceptional about the nutritional value or taste. It is a very processed food with processed cheese and white flour. They use vegetable oil, I do not use oil in my Polish dumplings but rather maybe a little olive oil. You are not going to lose weight or get healthy living on these Polish dumplings.
Mrs. T’s Pierogies are what you buy when you are in the USA and are too lazy to make your own. I use to love them, as they were the closest I could get to Polish cooking in the States without having to go to a Polish store. They are sold in most stores. Therefore, I am not going to say anything bad about the.
However, when you compare Mrs. T’s Pierogies to homemade, there is no comparison. Homemade is 100 times better than a Mrs. T Pierogi. I do not think I could eat them anymore. However, when I was in a pinch I would pick them up a store.
Advantages of homemade compared to Mrs T’s pierogies
- When you make the dough its great exercises for your hands, especially if you use the computer a lot.
- You can make exotic types, like apple, banana and cinnamon or even more wild types of Polish pierogi. I make dumplings with herbs like basil or oregano. Your only limited to how high your imagination can fly.
- They are fresh not frozen. No comparison. Mrs. T’s is a little like fast food compared to Polish cuisine, not bad but not fresh and does not make you feel light when you eat them.
- It is cheaper.
- It is fun to make pierogies
- Much healthier – I use real fresh fruit and cheese. You can even use whole wheat flour or some other variation. You can make it low fat or use olive oil.
The advantages of Mrs. T’s Pierogies
- Fast and convenient pierogies if you are a working person
- It is good that the company brings a little Polish culture to mainstream American, even if it is Polish cooking.
Mrs. T’s Pierogies rating
Mrs. T's Pierogies do not look like this
I wold give them three stars. However, this depends if you like in the USA or Poland. After living in Poland I think they are more like two stars. But for Americans I will maintain a four star out of five rating. They have many different types, mostly cheese and potato based pierogies. My favorate pierogies are fruit and meat based pierogies as well as exotic non tradictional Polish cooking pierogies. And this is something Mrs. T’s Pierogies do not have.
