Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

Customers are dissatisfied with the return policy of the nut and seed jar. They mention that it leaked and is not returnable.
The product may have tasted great, I ignored other reviews about receiving the product damaged (leaking). Mine also arrived leaking so I didn’t try it. I did try to tighten the lid and that’s when I discovered what is likely the problem. As you turn the lid to tighten it using modest pressure it reaches a point where it just pops loose. A lid shouldn’t do that. The manufacturer should double check its current lid supply and coordinate with its supplier if this is the issue.
This is an addition for dan dan noodles. I didn't realize it wasn't the same brand since the name was covered with the English translation and bar code. I really hope it's as good as what I usually order.
Despite the number of Asian markets in my city, the only thing I could find locally was tahini. I was happy to find this product on Amazon. It’s delicious and made all the difference in our cold sesame noodles. Highly recommended!
The jar was open, the product inside was spoiled and the oil from inside the jar was everywhere inside the box. The product was in a box that was entirely too big and had nothing to keep the product from rolling around inside of it so the oil had gotten all over the other item in the box. Lesson learned about checking the refund/return policy before buying because for this item there isn't a policy for either.
