disgusting
Bitter to the point that you want to vomit

Inedible as the seeds are still in
if these karelas were de-seeded they'd then be edible, thrown straight in the bin what a waste...

Seeds!
Full of seeds and relatively inedible. Chickens enjoyed them though.

why are indelible seeds in there?
Full of seeds which are NOT edible. Karela (bitter gourd) seeds are not eaten normally as they are tough, so why are seeds in these pre sliced pieces? Texture too soggy and ends up in a mush as they don't hold shape. Flavour is genuine but seeds ruined it for me. Used to be my favourite Indian veg but this is a total disappointment.

value for money
