How is it possible that there are 500 reviews and ALL are 5 star? The reviews are fake!

Real person here. Really good pancakes. Try them and see if you don't give them five stars yourself. Be sure to add just enough liquid to make a thick batter. A 1:1 ratio is too much liquid in my book. Just FYI, there are some reviews with fewer than 5 stars, but they're just wrong. Perhaps those are fake reviews.

It's part of a vast, breakfast-food conspiracy. The same way that the news organizations STILL fail to report that witnesses heard the sound of snap, crackle, and pop from the grassy knoll in 1963.

I can't speak for the other reviewers - but I truly love this product. It is wholesome, easy to use, my kid loves it, we make many different types of waffles and pancakes with this mix as the base and I even love the simple environmentally friendly brown box it comes in.

I don't know about the others, but last time I checked, my review is for real. While I have absolutely no financial or other interests in Kodiak products, other than as a consumer, you might consider this product is as good as the reviews.

I can't speak for other reviews. But for me these are 5 star all day long. Healthy and great tasting. I add bananas and blueberries to mine. Even my son loves them.

It's the best add only water mix I have ever had. My hunting buddies love it at camp. I make waffles and pancakes. They taste like real food not some over processed mix of mush. This is the real deal. It's my homemade mix or Kodiak. Everything else is subpar!

I think for once you can believe all of the good reviews. These pancakes are just plain wholesome and delicious. I buy the mix at Target in Longmont, Colorado. It's a bit more expensive but the ingredients are quality food not the junk found in the giant corporate brands. Buy some Kodiak Pancake Mix and find out for yourself. You can be the 501st 5 star review !

These are bogus reviews. It did nothing for me. I would say 90% of these reviews are from a circle of false reviewers. Check all their other product reviews and you will see that they are reviewing the same circle of products

The company did not "bribe" people. If you like a product you give them a review, if you don't like a product you do the same. To my recollection I ordered 2 times last year with the flyer in it. So, they only asked for a month last summer. This listing and review about this has gone way to overboard. So, take one month of reviews and delete them and you end up with over a hundred more 5 star reviews.

I'm a Vine reviewer and have submitted plenty of negative and mediocre reviews. I think if a reviewer were to be "fired" for negative reviews, the public would hear about it loud & clear! Since Vine still uses my services, I think I am the proof that there is no grade-shopping going on! Unfortunately, I never saw this item offered to Vine participants, but I think I will purchase one today. I appreciate the Vine reviews and do not consider them artificially inflated.

Actually if you've done any googling you would have found out that there are 1000s of Vine reviewers currently and you only need to have one or two reviews to get invited. There is also some analysis out there that looks at how Vine products rate versus these peoples normal reviews. Turns out about the same averages. Personally, I think most people are honest enough to try to do a good job. Then again, most people view the actions of others as they themselves would react. Thus I think they're honest, because I am. You think they are cheats because...

jesus..... people are so ridiculous. You can never get a straight answer about anything on Amazon. Does it click or not? lmao

Yeah, I feel sorry for anyone who orders this. Most of them are clearly fake reviews. The wording is way too consistent, as in how multiple years of usage is mentioned over and over again despite all the reviews being so recent. People with experience with tongkat ali aren't ordering this. If they were you'd see reviews discussing the taste and the smell of whatever's in the pills. There are 30+ reviews here and not a single world about the telltale characteristics of Tongkat Ali.

Your question is very valid. One can see that some products have one or two reviews and are both 5 stars. I Would that say those are definitely derived from interested parties in the sale of the product. However, as one of the reviewers who has given this product 5 stars, I can affirm that I do not have any ulterior motives for doing so. In fact, I use Moringa in two different forms, capsules and oil. I mix it with olive and coconut oils and apply it to my face, and it works wonders for me. So my 5 stars are legitimate.

I reviewed this and found several reviews with 5 stars that was not considered helpful. In my review I gave 5 stars, and was considered helpful. I'm not sure where you are going with this question?

BEWARE this company is buying 5 star reviews. You cannot trust whatever ingredients are even in this product. Here's an image of the company asking me to give them a positive review: http://imgur.com/Pj862tx

I personally don't think Amazon should let people review a product unless they bought it from them. The fake reviews can really skew a product's ratings. To second what Matt said, look for a trend in the ratings from verified purchasers vs. ratings from random people. :-)

BUYER BEWARE!! This company gives free product to people willing to write five-star reviews and gives them more free products as long as they keep up with the scam!!!!! I was one of their reviewers (this once). I ordered the free product and because somebody else with the same name wrote a review that was negative (wasn't me), the company (actually James Armstrong at salesmarketingmanager@hotmail.com) wrote me a very nasty email and said they wouldn't give me anything else because my review was negative. If you want free products from the company, you have to write positive reviews of products whether you like them or not!!!! Wonder how they have so many five star reviews in such a short time?!?! It's because they're conning people into writing them! I wrote the company and told them to keep their "free" products!!! I wouldn't give this company one cent of my money!!!! If anybody wants screenshots of the messages between James and myself, message me!! I've set up a new email address for this: scamwatchers2014@hotmail.com. I will send you all of the information that you need to see that I am legitimate. Stay away. Seriously. Just buy somebody else's product. Not this company!!! There's no telling what they're selling you and most of the reviews are bull-- just people wanting free stuff and writing reviews. This is the one that they start you out at. You have to review this product before they will send you other codes for free product. That's why it has so many great reviews.

This product page is packed full of suspicious reviews. Whoever is doing this is even buying Google adwords which tout the great reviews that are now available to read on the Amazon page. What a shame. Especially since the product is pretty good and should sell quite well on its own, just through standard word-of-mouth. But the manufacturer has potentially buried all of the real, honest reviews with the hype. I can't trust them, and on principle I have to object.

I'm glad Amazon has transparency factors, such as "verified purchase" and "see my other reviews" to help discern legitimate reviews from possible phony reviews. If you peek under the covers, many of these stellar reviews appear suspicious.

That's a dumb claim. What is a "fake review?" I get offered free products to review and no one has ever said they would only give me a free test item if I gave them a high rating. I am also a real person who tries out products just like any person who buys them. I rate and review both products I buy and ones I get for free. I was offered this product to try and in no way did the person who sent it to me ask that I rate it in any particular way, they asked if I could provide an unbiased review. Its dumb to claim that these are "fake" reviews. Who do you think is writing them, robots? That's a dumb claim. What is a "fake review?"

Then you obviously haven't read all of my vine reviews. I have given low but honest ratings to products that have deserved it, in my humble opinion. That is what is expected of a Vine reviewer. I have never given a 5-star review to a product that I felt didn't deserve it.
