These berries are just gross. When I opened the bag, the odor turned me off immediately. Also, they aren’t just dry, but rather like small stones. They made me think of the stuff you put in the bottom of fish tanks. Again, not something I was looking forward to eating.
Their texture is again very dry. They feel like small pebbles in my hand. After tossing them into my mouth, and crunching a bit, they are very juicy. I’m not sure if I like the flavor because I’m thrown off by the nasty after taste, like grain. I don’t know if you’ve ever smelled rabbit food or grain for horses. (I grew up with horses.) This is what the stuff smells like to me. Moreover, I imagine had I tried grain, it would taste like that: grain and berries. Gross.
I got the pack of two so I could give a pouch to my sister-in-law for Christmas. I hope she likes the berries. Perhaps they would be better in smoothies, but I’m reluctant to try.
If they didn’t have the funky after taste, I’d like them better. Oh, and the smell. Gross.

They have a slight after taste I was not fond of, but they are great mixed with other berries or nuts. My 4 year son does like to eat them alone and thinks they are fruit snacks of some kind.

need i say more. practically a miracle food. doesn’t really taste bad or good. eat straight up as a snack, part of smoothies, in cereal.

This is my first batch of goji berries and I have not been disappointed. I put a heaping tablespoon in my morning protein shake and my husband puts them in his oatmeal. I haven’t notice any smell, but I also haven’t stuck my nose into the bag. They give my shake (smoothie) a slightly sweeter pleasant taste. I will definitely buy them again. I do a lot of healthy things, so I can’t say that I get a boost from them or anything like that, but I have noticed that I’m having lunch later than usual, so the added protein might be making the shake more filling.

I liked Navitas Naturals Sun Dried Incan Golden Berries, 16 oz and decided to try these. Frankly, I don’t think I’ll be buying more. They don’t have much of a taste, but solo feel quite revolting to me – the texture is unpleasantly rough and the smell/taste remind me of hay.
On the plus side, the weak taste means they blend well into smoothies.
