The peaches smelled great but were hard to the touch. Figured I'd put them in a paper bag with a banana and ripen them. Didn't work. Kept them for a week and still no difference. The stayed rock hard and had an unripe taste

Waited several days to eat the first one. It still was the texture of an apple. Good flavor and juicy but not getting ripe. Then after a few days more they got rubbery. After a week several peaches were moldy. These peaches were rotting from the pit to the outside. Rather strange.

Usually love HMC Farms peaches. We lived in CA for 15 years and the peaches there were the just the best. We have bought other boxes of HMC Farms peaches that were wonderful. It all depends on the varietal. These were called Sierra Rich, which I had never heard of, but took a chance. They were terrible! Many already browning inside, they clung to the stone and the flavor was a real disappointment. If you buy HMC, I would avoid this variety of peach.

Walking past the fruit, you could not miss the smell of peaches; had to buy a case with an aroma like so sweet. Biting into the fruit, we were so disappointed. The texture was like rubber and the taste was a lot more bland then the smell. Maybe it was the type of peach and I need to educate myself. This is one fruit that does not taste the way it smells.

They were delicious, with just enough firmness to eat like an apple. As with everything purchased at Sam’s you buy more than you can use right away, so we had to eat them quickly or they would spoil. Still, they were better and cheaper than at the local supermarket.

I normally don't buy peaches at Sam's Club, but they smelled so good I decided to give them a try. They were still a bit hard, so I left them on the counter and turned them daily. They began to soften after a few days, and I tried one - it had no flavor at all! Waited a couple more days thinking they needed to continue ripening, and again although it smelled great, it had no flavor. The next day they began to mold! Cut off the moldy section and tried again - still no flavor! I ended up throwing them all away. Very dissappointing.

These peaches are excellent, but there's a trick to getting them at their freshest. Every year, when they first come in (in June), the first couple of weeks they're not that good. They're best in July, and in August they tend to get mealy. Stick to buying them only in the sweet spot.

These peaches were the only ones I have bought in past few years at a retail store that were actually really good. Most times the peaches are picked too early to be able for them to be ripe at the store when purchasing them and therefore they are not worth buying.

I love peaches from Sam’s club. It is worth noting that the title says yellow peaches and there are different varieties of yellow peaches available every 2 weeks from May through September. So if you get a bad batch, you can try again in a week or two and the flavors will be different. Typically the peaches available at the beginning of the season aren’t the sweetest. The more flavorful peaches come in June. End of the season peaches tend to be more mealy in my experience but not always! If you walk into the store and purchase in person, look at the flavors descriptions on the bag or box. I think I only had 1 or 2 bag of peaches that were just mediocre. The rest of the peaches for summer 2024 were great! (Also worth noting the peach farms are all within 30 minutes of Sam’s club since I live in Californias Central Valley. Our peaches are fresh off the trees.)

The nectarines that were in a peach box were fine if I had wanted nectarines. They are good, but don't act quite the same in a peach pie as peaches. Too much juice and shrinkage, so it is too soupy for a good peach pie. Taste is close, so not the problem.
