Haven't had issues with stringiness. Use all the time for soups, adding to curries, etc. Great product, please keep stocking these.

Highly recommended
I thought twice about buying frozen butternut squash, but prepared fresh versions had always been a disappointment, and life is too short for trying to deal with a whole from scratch. So I tried this and wish I had done years ago. Roast it in olive oil with a sprinkle of salt straight from frozen - I left it about 10 minutes longer than recommended and it benefitted from it. I used it in a veggie lasagne which gave it a more substantial feel than normal veggie versions. I had it in a veg bake with left over cheese sauce the next day. And have roasted with cumin seeds. So healthy and versatile and very handy being frozen - use just what you need when you need it.
