I am a lover of wheatgerm and always taste fresh and not bitter. I would return to seller definitely.

To my taste it tastes nutty and somewhat bitter -thats my experience with it -I keep all packs in freezer -fill a small container and leave it in the frig - i take out as ( from freezer ) much as I would use in a month . I use it on everything . Hope this helps .

It should not taste bitter. It should have a very mild flavor. You may want to return the shipment.

My guess? You are probably used to cereals laced with sugar. Try using some honey, or sugar in the amount of 2 teaspoons to two ounces of wheat germ.

Be sure to use Non-Bitter Stevia, not the regular. Huge difference in taste! We use NuStevia brand, and have had no issues with a bitter after-taste. DGB

Not sure. I opened two packs yesterday which were yr n 1/2 old and tasted fine.

I am on my first bottle and I found the taste by itself to be absolutely repulsive. I mix it with homemade lemonade (w/stevia) or grapefruit water or even chocolate milk. The Mg changes the flavor a little but at least they make it drinkable.

Yes, it tastes bitter. All the emulsions do but you can smell the flavor. This is way better than extracts. I have also used the orange, rum, lemon flavors.

Hi Stephanie, Im not sure about all of those as I stopped ordering the product last year. The flavor changed in my last few canasters, it literally started tasting like dirt. I thought Id share since I had recommended it to a friend who had the same issue as well.

Nope... See their web site: http://www.bobsredmill.com/faqs.htmlThese are old-line grains. Wild type... It's an aquired taste. I cut mine with a decent whole wheat flour .. What you do... I like the stuff and ordered it more than once, as I recall. I have not used it in over a year and a half now but I suspect the formulation is the same

I believe everyone has a different slant on this.. I read all the remarks on this before buying it. I had just bought the nutribullet so I was ready to do some juicing. No, I didn't like it at all, I don't know what ingredient that made it taste bad to me was, but, you might like it. It's a matter of taste. I offered it to everyone around my circle of fam. & friends, but, no one wanted it, so I threw it away.

Taste first, then decide. You'll know if it's bad. I routinely leave the wheat germ out for a week or so...

I am sorry...when I ordered them its been awhile and don't remember the date on them but my problem was the flavor I just was not satisfied with them...I would prefer to eat rice krispies as a cereal...just my preferest....

Numb your taste buds. Sorry but this stuff tastes really bad. I've tried mixing it with juice, yogurt, cereal; nothing works.

Hmm I just tried some out of ours and it tastes normal. I will say though we always use our Brita filter so it may just be a temporary taste when new.

I would say so. So far - my cubes have not had any odd taste at all - whether made the day before or weeks before. At one point I think I left it in there full of ice for about two months - and the only issue I had was that I had to use a butter knife to crack them apart inside the blue bucket when I finally did use them. But the taste was fine. Really must be the silicone. : ) I should add that I always fill it only with filtered water as well - not sure if that makes a difference...

You need to add some stevia if your watching your sugar intake. Or make up some simple syrup to it. (you can make a batch and keep it in the fridge) It's bitter and drinking it straight is not going to taste good.

I bought it for my daughter, but by the time we received it the problem was over! :-/ I bought it because I remembered that it was the only medicine that I truly liked when I was a kid. I don't think it tastes any worse than all those horrible bubble gum flavored things out there - I think it's better. In my experience, most medicines cause refusal and crying! The vomiting is a mystery to me. I have started giving my daughter regular doses of fiber and probiotics (both are the gummy types) and we've never had a repeat of that particular issue since - so there's that. Good luck!

Yes, and it doesn't taste like wheat cereal malt. It's sweet, but with a more organic taste. The consistency is like molasses.

It started out perfectly delicious, clean and crisp, but after only 4-5 weeks it began tasting like dirt, which was probably the charcoal/filter flavor.I don't know what happened. Dismantling and cleaning the entire system twice more did not help either.
