Purchased Del Monte fresh cut green…

Purchased Del Monte fresh cut green beans from Costco. Opened a can and a strange brown hard item approx 2-3 inches fell out of the can (had tiny spiders crawl out of it). Contacted customer service, has been a nightmare to say the least. They didn't apologize or act in any way concerned. Required multiple emails and phone calls. It's been weeks and I'm over it.

Care when eating Del Monte foods

Opened a can of prunes and found a piece of ribbon inside. Sent two emails both came back undelivered. Rang up spoke to someone who confirmed email and sent again but came back undelivered. Tried to ring numerous times but no response.This company needs reporting to Hygiene Standards.

I was down to my last bite of green…

I was down to my last bite of green beans when i noticed a sharp thing in my string beans that almost stuck me in my mouth. It felt like when you break 1 of the pieces off a plastic fork off in your food. I don't know what it is. I bought these from Safeway in washington state as off tonight. I'm really wondering what the heck it could be. Especially after noticing that they were recalled for finding something foreign in them from just last year. I have never found a stem or whatever it is in a can of green beans and I'm 54 yrs old. I'm so glad it didn't go in my gums and will be contacting the company if i find a way.

No reply to complaint

Complained by email about their tinned peaches, as hard as bullets. No reply. Will never buy Del Monte again. Waitrose are far better and cheaper.

Make cans easy to open

Assalam o alikum. The quality and freshness of pineapple fruit is great. Kindly make cans easy to open. Sometimes the quality of tinopeners r not good and we face difficulty in opening cans.

Over the decades

Over the decades I've been a del Monte customer, for canned vegetables. And canned fruits, I paid more because of the quality that I should be getting but don't anymore. lately there's been so much wrong with the vegetables, my green beans have all kinds of stems in them, I understand occasionally you're going to have that, but this is consistently in every can, the whole corn that I get, has been tough not very flavorful, and small pieces of the cob in it, I was at the grocery store, and seen Libby which I've never bought before, it was on sale for quite a bit less than del Monte so I decided to go with it. I was very surprised at the difference, the corn was tender sweet and flavorful there was no pieces of the cob in it. And I said to myself, why am I buying del Monte. It seems like anymore del Monte has been like a generic product, not the high quality that they used to be. The decline in quality has gone down over the past years. But I have to say this past year has been one of the worst. Del Monte lost a customer.

Empty Product Box and Zero Customer Support

I received a box of Del Monte 100% Orange Juice Ice Lollies and it was completely empty — really strange.I expected Del Monte to appreciate someone reporting this, especially since I had the batch code ready. But after trying three different numbers, I couldn’t reach a single person. Every line went straight to voicemail.As someone who is disabled, I need to be able to speak to a real person on the phone. Because they offer no accessible way to contact consumer support, this issue will now have to go unreported.Very disappointing from a brand of this size.

Appalling Customer Service

I opened my No Added Sugar Peaches to find a fruit salad, I am Diabetic so was unable to eat it as I didn't know the sugar content!! Three emails to Del Monte, not an iota of a response or apology.

Del Monte is putting sea salt in all…

Del Monte is putting sea salt in all their canned vegetables. 90% of the sea salt tested contains plastic, and who knows how many other toxins that are in the ocean. It also contains huge amounts of iodine. My thyroid quit working because of all the sea salt that companies were putting in food and I didn't know it at the time. I will never buy anything from Del Monte again.

Delmonte pineapple & coconut fruit…

Delmonte pineapple & coconut fruit juice is vile, watery and next to tasteless. What on earth have they done to the formulation? It tastes like a lot of water has been added. It used to be quality but I won't be purchasing again.

The man from Del Monte says “I don’t care”.

I bought tin of Del monte Whole mandarin segments( bought same last week and it was disgusting mush) I hoped last purchase was a fluke. NO. It was absolute mush. This is not a cheap brand and I thought it would be better than cheaper own brand. It is disgusting. I have emailed the company twice and they have not had the decency to reply. Don’t buy this product unless you wish to drinkIt( with bits in). I took photos and sent those too.

Downward quality

The quality of their vegetables went down 100%: specifically the green beans no salt added. The cans used to have a silver colored lid, the beans were crispy and light green. Now the cans have gold colored lids, the green beans are soft, soggy and dark green. Am going to go with a different brand from now on, this quality change is unacceptable!

The man from Del Monte may still be saying ‘Yes’ but his customers are not!

What has happened to Del monte? The man from Del Monte is not saying ‘Yes’ these days! The tinned prunes are so inconsistent. They are hard and some are dry eventhough they are in juice…really disappointing.

Lemon/raspberry supposedly natural…

Lemon/raspberry supposedly natural fruit juice is a very unnatural BLUE & full of additives. Feedback was met with an auto response which failed to address the issues raised and a rant about not abusing them. Feedback is valuable, del Monte & when paid for is called 'market research'! Del Monte also needs to remember it must extend the same respect to customers that it demands from them. Will avoid this once trusted brand in future in favour of healthier, often cheaper, actual fruit juices & other products from competitors.

Bought an 8 pack of canned corn from Sam’s club that was sent to me. The cans were all dented in multiple spots and on multiple sides. The shipping box and retail box holding the cans were in good condition. The only way they could be in that state is if they were packaged at the factory that way. I contacted del monte and got a response blaming the shipping process. They took no responsibility for selling a known damaged product.
