I LOOOOOOOOOOveeeeeeeeee Costco and I normally buy the Pillers Turkey bites there.

Last week I saw Grimm's Turkey Pepperoni. They have almost the same nutritional info but they look soooooooo much better. They have that shrunken up just off the BBQ look.

NASTAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yuck. The outer shell crunches nicely like a knackwurst but the inside is gross. I don't know ...tastes like bad bologna or something regurgitated.

Just wanted to give anyone a heads up 'cause I have 1KG of these things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.

I bought Pillers Turkey pepperoni and I really liked it...although its a tad too salty for me.  The nutritionals are good and I heated them in microwave for about a minute and a half on paper towel, blotted off any grease and then ate them.  They were chewy with crispy edges.  I could have cooked them longer to get them entirely crispy.  Really yummy!

Thanks for the warning, I almost bought them and wouldn't be surprised if they made their way into my fridge in the future.  I'll stick with the Pillers too.

Never thought about nuking them!  I like hard pepperoni, so maybe this will be a good alternative.  Thanks for the suggestion.

Had RNY surgery July 22/11, St. Joe's Hamilton, with the awesome Dr. Scott Gmora.  Had abdominoplasty August 2/13, Scarborough, with equally awesome Dr. Michael Kreidstein.

I prefer the Grimm's to the Pillar's.  LOL

And no yo don't have to cook them.  Some people put the sliced pepperoni in the microwave just to crisp it up.

You may want to cut it into smaller chunks or the outside will be rock hard.  I hated the Piller's turkey pepperoni no matter how I used it.  I don't like the Piller's bites either though so maybe it's the spices or something they use in it that I dislike.
