Beware - dusty and staleJan 15, 2008
By Larry Bouchard I recently ordered these and was extremely disappointed. Here were the problems:
1) OLD!! They actually tasted dusty and I could feel no potency in them at all. 2) Wolfberries not Goji Berries. Since I've consumed Goji's from many sources over the years, I know which are the highest quality Goji's (usually quite expensive), which are less potent, and which are the different tasting Wolfberry variety that many sellers pass off as Goji's but are not the same. Wolfberry has its own benefits (not nearly those of Goji IMO), but for Wolfberries these are widly overpriced. You can get the same in Chinese stores for probably closer to $10 for twice the amount.
With the dollar devaluation top quality Goji berries have gotten very expensive for regular use. So if you're looking for cheaper alternatives like I was here, look elsewhere. Check out some of the cheap goji berries (that are in fact wolfberries and usually say so) on Ebay from Chinese sources. They'll be quite a bit cheaper and likely quite a bit fresher.

Really, really badFeb 05, 2008
By Tushaun I was impressed by the price, so I ordered these. They are horrible...hard as rocks, stale-tasting, full of stems, and they leave a bad after taste in the mouth. I am a raw vegan and use lots of goji berries; I have never experienced any as awful as these.
Perhaps this is only a bad batch, as others seem to have gotten good ones. If that's the case, then the company has terrible qualitycontrol, as well as terrible goji berries.

Good value, a bit drySep 11, 2007
By N. Schweitzer These berries are a bit drier and chewier (and less sweet) than I expected. However, I found that if I add a hand full of them to a bag of sweetened dried cranberries, it makes it much less noticeable.

I've tried many bags of Goji Berries, these are the worst...Dec 07, 2007
By Raw Vegan Dude I've tried many bags of Goji Berries from different companies. Some are good and some are not so good. I later found out that the Goji Berries from China are not the best quality. So, I found a brand that said that they are the "authentic Tibetan Goji Berries" at my local health food Co-Op. Although they were expensive, they were good. I later bought another brand at the 2007 Raw Spirit Festival in Sedona, AZ. They were the best that I ever had, soft and delicious.
When I saw that there were some inexpensive authentic organic Tibetan Goji Berries on Amazon, I became excited. I made the purchase and couldn't wait to get them. When I received them and tried them I was very disappointed. They are the hardest, driest, discolored, worst tasting Goji Berries that I ever had. I immediately felt that I was sold and inferior product in a nice bag. These Goji Berries have a bad taste and have sediment on them as if they were not clean. I called the company to inquire about the origin. Of course they did say that they are authentic Tibetan Goji Berries. I just don't believe them. There were two bags that came with my order. The second bag remains unopened and will probably eventually get tossed.

Chewy berries go great with many mealsAug 17, 2007
By Marcin Jeske
"prime number"
Not only was this brand of Goji berries the most economical I found on Amazon, but their taste meets or exceeds the other two brands I have tried.
I throw a handful of these into my cereal, mix them in with salad, or eat them out of the bag. Also good cooked in with pasta or meat. They are not very sweet, but have a unique flavor and a consistency that makes you want to chew.
