I had about 2 cups of the peas and the second day I couldn't taste sweetness and saltness. It's been like this for 3 days. I don't know what happened.

I never had that problem--they were good to the very last pea! All of them were evenly coated and tasted great.

Cannot taste or feel the seeds on strawberries or even apples. Even raw, dry oatmeal disappears. No worries.

I took 1 tablespoon twice a day for six weeks. There is not much flavor. I either mixed in with applesauce or yogurt. Good luck!

It might just be the flour. A quick google search will provide you with leavening agent ideas (I haven't experimented with too many of them with this particular flour), but since the main ingredient in this flour is bean-based (garbanzo and fava, plus tapioca flour) then it will usually have a slight to strong bitter aftertaste. I've only ever had success with this flour with pastries like cookies, cakes, and sweet breads (like banana or zucchini bread) where a lot of sugar "fixes" the bean flavor. Stuff like pancakes that don't have a lot of sugar have never tasted good for me, the flour itself is just too bitter. It might just be the flour.

I could not taste anything. I know it helped soothe my insides. I did not take it every day, I drank it every other day.

If you're not using filtered water, it could be little white calcified flakes (lime scale) from the water. I used to get that when I used tap water. Nasty feeling if you accidentally get them in tea and swallow them. If you think this is the problem, add vinegar and boil it, then wash thoroughly; ideal if you only use filtered water after that (makes better tea/coffee anyway).

I agree with everyone else. Have ordered it online And bought at Trader Joe's and never had a fishy taste. Maybe take it back, and/or try it again and give it another shot. It's worth it!

Hi Dr. Rusty. Honestly i did not notice a difference between this and a previous brand's "regular" flavour seaweed snack. The next time i try these i will try to pay more attention to the flavour. Please don't hold your breath however, as i will likely try a different brand next time. (Only because i've tried just one other brand so far -- with a "regular" or "plain" flavor, IIRC -- the two different brands tasted exactly the same to me, though i admittedly did not do a proper side-by-side taste test with both products present at the same time.)

Yes it is. Interesting fact though, is that if you are buying gluten free items, due to a gluten sensitivity/allergy, may want to check what else you might be sensitive to. My daughter and I bought this to follow a strict 21 day elimination diet, and it was strange that she didn't feel better on it like I did. Come to find out, months later, that she has an extreme sensitivity to green peas! Found this out by having a specialized food sensitivity test done.

Agree with Morgaine and Rakhi. Give the grains time. Also, a small pinch of baking soda in the sugar mixture revved mine up......

It's an acquired taste sort of like wheatgrass. Try adding honey or raw Stevie it'll sweeten it somewhat but I've learned that the pros outweighs the taste. Because of the numerous bodily benefits after a while I just got use to the taste. Or try mixing non concentrated raw Apple juice...not so bad. Your body will thank you for it &#128515;&#128515;&#128515;&#128515;

I did have white flecks in another brand and it had a bad taste.Maybe it went bad. I didn't drink the other brand. The only flecks Ive ever seen in pacific original hemp milk were brown/black. Ground up seeds.

I just made zucchini bread using this cup-for-cup in my recipe. While mixing I quickly saw there wasn't enough moisture, so I added more zucchini & a little water. Baking time seemed to be less, but I just did one trial loaf instead of my normal two loaves, so maybe that was the difference. The loaf didn't rise quite as much as with wheat flour. The taste isn't very good & was also bland with a poor mouth feel. I'm thinking that this might be due to not decreasing the flour to 3/4 cup. I'd appreciate any input so I don't waste this expensive flour!

You can try 4 things: >Use a little less water than called for >Add some cornstarch (it won't affect the taste) >Add some flour >Stir in some real mayonnaise as needed

I also tasted an artificial sweet flavor. I was concerned because artificial sweetners give me headaches, so I called the number on the label and the woman that answered promised that there were no artificial sweetners or stevia in it. She claimed it was sweetened with apple pectin and pineapple. But there is no sugar content listed and I still wonder about that sweet flavor because I am diabetic. I did not get headaches from it though. I have since started using the Amazing grass green superfood, but it sure does not taste as good!

smoothie don't like the sticky feeling either. After 2 days it is not as bad when using the soufflé, but rather the smoothie

yes but if its not crisp on a sunny day something is wrong. Mine was bad there might be another. Like i said they have a turnaround time of 2 days.Alex
