I love red capsicums from woolworths as they are one of the only vegetables I can enjoy eating. I love to bake them at home and season it and turn it into a sauce. Delicious!

violeta stuhlman ✓

tasty, fresh and good price

Backy Lam ✓

I like Red Capsicum for its vibrant colour and crispness. I add Red Capsicum to dishes because they have such little flavour and make for an easy vegetable addition. The Red Capsicum is a favourite snack of mine for sure. I can dip it in stuff for the heck of it too, and it's amazing. Nothing beats just freshly washed, cold Red Capsicum on a hot summer day!

The quality has been good lately for the capsicums however the price is out of control. There is no reason why capsicum‘s need to be $15 a kilo.

a large sized red capsicum from Woolworths. these can be a bit hit and miss and there are sometimes some that are past their prime so make sure you check them over before you buy one. the good ones are crisp and fresh tasting. goes well in salads and cooked recipes

Amanda ✓

delicious, cook with anything savoury, can have this cooked or raw.

Lizzy ✓

I carefully picked my capsicum so it was firm and crunchy. I do recommend picking by feeling the texture as there were some over ripped capsicums in the bunch. they were on the expensive side but I price matched and it was the best I could find. I buy sparingly depending on price.

miyagi1982 Maraga ✓
