Fucking delicious. Wowza these were soo good. My only experience with canned mussels have been TJ and don't get me wrong… I like them… but sometimes their texture is too squishy for me. I didn't have an issue with these at all. They had a bit more give to them. And the flavor was delicious!! It's definitely spicy but it's like a punch-you-in-the-face-wake-you-up spice. I had this over some white rice and I definitely reccomend.

Thanks for the review. Been looking at these but a bit too afraid to make the jump from tinned fish to tinned mussels. This post changes that.
Love tinned Oysters, I must try these.
I can’t handle spicy food anymore, unfortunately, but I 100% agree with you on the texture of ordinary tinned mussels vs Patagonia brand. I actually bought them accidentally, not paying enough attention and thinking I was buying oysters, and I had some trepidation about trying them.
Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate or even particularly dislike other tinned mussels, but like you I don’t like the squishy factor.
But this brand surprised me. Tender, but not at all squishy or mealy.
