Batch I just received contained over-cooked, salty product. Anyone know why?

No sir. I never had a bad batch in the 3 years I have been buying them. Sounds like a manufacturer problem or mislabeled product. Write a letter to Roland expressing your concerns, they might send you a free case.

I like them... I would prefer less salt, too, but I still like them. To me, they're not overlooked. I admit I'm not a sardine expert ...

That has happened to me more than once. I stopped purchasing them because of this.

If you look at the other Q & As, someone asked how many mg of sodium these have and one person answered 35mg while another answered 70mg. So they may have just doubled the sodium recently? I dunno, I usually order another brand and was thinking of giving these a try, but am not interested in salt-bombed 'dines either :)

Mine tasted very salty compared to Reese low-salt (45 mg/can) and also saltier than normal-salt Crown Prince (200 mg/can). These claim to have 70 mg/can (35 mg/serving), but I don't believe it. Other people have pointed out that these taste saltier than they should, so I haven't gotten some fluke mislabeled package.

My last shipment was the same too. There was no difference in the taste. I stirred it up and used as normal. I would imagine this is not atypical given that there is nothing other than almonds in the container.

Might be some burnt on residue from your previous cookout. Make sure you wash you sheet on both sides real good after each use with warm soapy water

I've only spread it on bread or crackers. I still find the product to be too salty. I've been adding it to water to make a soup base.

Sorry you don't like them this fresh. That's why they're so moist. We're all conditioned to expect the store bought variety that's treated with preservatives. That's to extend shelf life. Fine if you like it. I preferred to get used to these beauties. My only suggestion would be to dry them in the oven on a cookie sheet at about 200 degrees. Check them every 10 minutes until they reach your desired level of dryness.Good luck!

It does not say "Roasted" anywhere on the container that I have. (I just looked). They contain peanut oil, which means they are most likely fried in it. I have learned that there are a lot shenanigans that go on in the nut industry. They taste very good though, as things fried in peanut oil normally do. :)

The bacon I received is in slab form, the slab being about 1/2 as thick as conventional bacon. And as a reminder, it is very salty if used as is.

Mine seemed fine, but I found this online regarding things you can look for to determine if it's fresh: http://www.ehow.com/info_8359516_storage-life-raw-cacao-beans.htmlI found the "best by" date on the bottom of the back panel - to the right of the bar code.Hope this helps! I would definitely contact the seller and see about a replacement if it seems bad.

Yes, it happened to me as well. I called the company and they say the moisture is caused by a high temperature treatment they use to kill bacteria. So I'm guessing they boil or steam the filters before bagging them. I have no problem with that as long as it's a normal part of the process. The product documentation should mention that but it doesn't.

That was just the opposite of my experiences. Mine were constantly hard (undercooked) no matter how long I cooked them, even tried soaking them overnight still no success, so it stays in back of my cabinet and took out my old pressure cooker and gone back to my old ways!!!

Maybe use unsalted butter. Most of us like the salty taste and that is why we make them. Good luck.

The biscuits alone are not salty. The salty taste is from the herb bag. Use half of it or just skip it.

I have noticed browning at the bottom of mine, as well, although I have had it for several months now and use it regularly. I first noticed it after food I was making still smelled like the broccoli and I wasn't making broccoli. I checked the reservoir and noticed burnt-looking brownish residue. I tried to clean it using a bottle brush with the sponge-tip; it helped but did not get it all off. I have watched very carefully and have not noticed any impact on the food (no discoloration, flakes, or change in taste). I am VERY PLEASED with the Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker!!

I would check to make sure it's not spoiled or out of date? It shouldn't taste sour?

It probably got buried during shipping. Not sure about using the spoon from a different brand. I would just gently dump the contents of the can into a large bowl and fish out the spoon. It will probably happen again so be sure to hold on to an extra spoon!

I do not know. My guess would be all ingredients are roasted together. I do not have the bag in my house right now so I can't read the label.

All of the Bob's Red Mill Oats I have bought have been un-cooked and un-steamed. You are really best off contacting them directly, though ... they will respond to questions in a timely manner.
