        • Palm Oil used in this product contributes to the production of Sustainable Palm Oil

          someone tell me more 'bout this

            @capslock janitor: It's a weasel word with essentially no meaning. They could have given $50 to a sustainable palm oil producer and thus the product 'contributes to the production of sustainable palm oil'.

            Note what it doesn't say: "Palm Oil used in this product IS sustainable palm oil"

            It's corporate virtue signaling.

    • was going to ask, thank you!

    For the prawn lovers, also Prawn Gyoza 750g $8 Found the vegetable goes on sale at same time, so I buy both & cook together.

  • was this a 1kg pack once upon a time?

    • That's @Woolies😉

    • The incredible shrinking packet. Keep the price the same while giving you less. No inflation!

      • +1

        Not true!
        There are 2 different sizes - 750g & 1kg. That's been the case for ages.

        So not shrinking, just different packs sold at different stores:
        Coles (750g)
        Woolies (1kg) $10.65 (exp 26Nov).
        Same 2 sizes in veggie & prawn varieties. Both varieties are usually on special together.
        Although I haven't seen the veggie variety @Woolies, so I buy these at Coles.

  • +1

    If you're thinking you might like to try these I can vouch that they are amazing! Always stock up on the kilo bags of this and the prawn when they are at half price at Woolies.

  • i bought a deep freezer purely to store this product (and the prawn)

    Once upon a time they also have salt&pepper squid that usually go on sale at the same time.

    Made in Thailand. No thanks.

    • They could be designed in Australia, though.

      • They could be pre-assembled in California tho

      Not a valid reason for a neg, but worth pointing out!

        Why do we need to purchase and encourage foreign food when we should be purchasing local produce?

        • +1

          Would love to, but they don't make this kind of thing in Australia

        • +2

          That's still not a valid reason for a neg. (Didn't neg you)
          Strangely, the politics & economics of international food manufacturing isn't even listed in the voting guidelines😉

          Thought your complaint was about the quality & safety of the food!

          Did you even think about your comment?
          Similar to why don't we mass produce cars here… We can, but…
          Small market, high costs, required subsidy from taxpayers & no / low taxes paid by the manufacturers, it's just not economic.

          Not many local options in packaged Asian foods.
          Just try to buy Australian produced Gyoza.

          Like probably most Asian foods sold here, this is produced in Asia. Just packaged here.

          It's the economy of scale - which makes Asian food much cheaper to produce in Asia, where most is consumed.

          I guess you've noticed - we don't have the size of population Asia has. And most Australians are not big eaters of Gyoza. It's a small market here.

          Producing just for small local market is likely to push price way beyond imported product. It just doesn't make sense - people don't want to pay high prices.
          It wouldn't appear as a bargain here!!

          Could ship product to Asia to sell larger quantities. But probably won't sell at the necessarily high price & may not be what the Asian market wants.

          I'm all for supporting Australian farmers, producers & manufacturers. But at what price, if the product is dearer than a possibly better imported product?

          Other good quality foods are available here at reasonable prices - support those. And we produce sought after gourmet foods.

          Just having to compete with the massive Asian food market, with products they excel at, at a similar price may be asking too much.

          So are you going to put your money & effort into setting up your dream factory here? It's high risk!

          Or easier - make your own Gyoza at home!

            @Laziofogna: Not sure it's the same context. Importing food from a third world country should be illegal when it could be purchased locally. Even mangoes are being imported now.

            • @Duece1995:

              illegal when it could be purchased locally

              Illegal? Why? Oh and people are purchasing it at their local supermarket. So yeah, purchased locally.

              • -2

                @RSmith: we're importing product that doesn't necessarily comply with the same land management, chemical and soil nutrition and human and waste regulations that Australian farmers must adhere to by law, nor is there sufficient checks for chemical or other biological contamination when it arrives here simply due to the vast volumes handled at our ports. This isn't good enough that Australian families should be subjected to inferior, if not risky foods. What is it with the Libs that they push for these things to progress in the name of "liberal" or "less" government and red-tape. The only ones the red tape is being slashed for, as far as I can tell, is the multinationals. Has everyone forgotten about the berry crisis 12-18 months ago? But hey its cheap right? Who gives a dam.

                  @Duece1995: I understand the principle, but following that it would not be much left in my pantry. It would be like going back to the white australia pre greek/italian migration.

                    @Laziofogna: Sounds like the Australia Rog1995 wants.

                    But why not roll it back to only produce of Austalian origin - bush tucker. Maybe new arrivals of the last 200+ years should leave.

                    A pointless ideological rant!
                    I thought we were discussing cheap veggie Gyoza?
                    Back to the Deal.

                • @Duece1995: BS! Those Indonesian mangoes were never imported.

                  There was very little chance they ever would be imported! It would affect Australian producers.

                  A licence to import was applied for but not granted. Any business can apply to import. It's just paperwork.

                  That's why we don't need to make imports "illegal when it could be purchased locally" - a licence is needed to import fresh produce. Many matters (impact on local producers, bio-security, etc) are considered in making that decision.

                  If only you knew as much as you think you do😉

                  It's a BS beat up story to whip up support for the National Party in North Queensland. Helped again by News Ltd! (Their journalist seems to writes puff pieces like "Mackay fish & chip shop finalist in awards".)

                  I wonder if the Nats arranged for the controversial license application… Politics is dirty.

                  Get your facts right, rather than rant on about nothing.

                  The National Party, George Christensen & co would be proud of you for swallowing their tale😉
                  They used you!😂
                  Somehow I don't think this was the first time!

            • +1

              @Duece1995: You do realise fresh food like mangoes are seasonal? And we export 1 in every 8 mangoes we produce?

              So saying "should be illegal when it could be purchased locally" is pretty pointless. Will ruin our export mango trade, affecting local growers!!

              Strange quoting a nearly 2 year old Tasmanian News Ltd newspaper??

              Were mangoes imported? Licenses were applied for, but not granted (pending).

              Sounds like the usual National Party Politicians beating up a story to promote themselves. You fell for it!

              Mango season in say Thailand is April through June. That's ideally counter-seasonal to the Australian production - September to February.
              Indonesian production (June to December) does overlap our far Northern producers.

              By importing, we can have "fresh" mangoes year round. So importing from countries with opposite mango seasons makes some sense.

              Mangoes are imported mainly when not locally available or when there is a shortage. That is the main time they are saleable!
              So why go on about wanting to make it illegal! That importation doesn't affect local producers.

              Local mangoes are pretty cheap, whereas imported mangoes I've seen are dearer.
              Even if they were available, it's hardly viable to sell the dearer imported mangoes when cheaper local ones are available! And the taste is different to what were used to.

              I grew & sold mangoes.

              Don't just use National Party self promotion to prop up your own slanted ideology!
