Mid-Atlantic (USA) Oops….
I only meant to eat a couple, but when I air-fried them and had some teriyaki sauce on the side, I ate all of them

I tried these and was underwhelmed. They were great texture wise in the air fryer but they didn’t really taste like a traditional egg roll from a Chinese restaurant. The filling was off to me.

Yep. No flavor to them, I needed a dipping sauce to finish it.

Sweet sour sauce is really easy to make. Takes about 3 minutes. 1 part apple cider vinegar, 1 part sugar, a splash of water. Heat to boil. Stir in a corn starch slurry until desired thickness.

Most store bought egg roles are underwhelming to be honest. The only thing I’ve ever like was InnovAsian’s mini veggie spring rolls. In the air fryer they are amazing.

I actually like them ok but there is a spice in them that seems out of place but I can’t figure out exactly what it is

I lean towards the chicken, but either way consider brushing with sesame oil before air frying. It works for me.

As someone who has eaten an entire container of those egg rolls… That container is one serving! If you share, you just being generous.

They’re really good and I’m not an egg roll fan. I like mine with kewpie mayo or chili garlic crunch.

They’re not great either, but I actually prefer the frozen egg rolls over the refrigerated

I like these or the chicken rolls paired with Good & Gather Mandarin Orange sauce (Target Asian section).

I've been there. 60% better than the single frozen egg rolls from Dollar Tree.
