I have had them before and really liked them, then again I have had them in some dishes/salads & they make me gag. Are there different types? Better brands? I'll appreciate any suggestions! Thanks. www

He gets them out and sprinkles them on any dish that I make that he doesn't care for. (No capers, the dish is a success). I don't care for them, so I would just buy the cheaper brand until he asked me to buy the ones that are smaller. He claims they taste better.

I did read that the smaller ones are supposedly a finer pick & are usually French vs the larger Italian ones. So now I will hunt out the smaller ones. @marge Thanks. I was a bit confused over the packing since I have seen both salt or brine packed on the label. It's good to know to wash them 3 times. I have a feeling my aversion to them may have been when they had not been rinsed and just plopped into the dish. Thanks!!! www
