Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: fantastic product--worth every penny! Comment: As other reviewers have noticed, this is not the cheapest goji berry product on the market. However, in my experience, as with pretty much every other Sunfood Nutrition product [...] quality is unsurpassable. I have tasted many goji berry products, and non are as soft and juicy as these little babies.
In response to some of the other people who are objecting to the price, I have been to David Wolfe's lectures (the founder of the company that imports these gojis) and he has spoken of the extreme difficulty with proper quality control of goji berries. They grow in China (and in Tibet) natively, and even many of the products out there that claim they are "organic" may not really be, as some of them can be tested and proven they are still sprayed with sulfur dioxide among other preservatives.
Sunfood Nutrition has 4 checkpoints in China and in the export process to absolutely ensure the quality of their product is a high as they say it is.
David Wolfe has stated that Sunfood is not at all trying to compete on price with cheaper products that are flooding healthfood stores and internet companies nationwide. Their only passion is the highest quality available.
By the way, I have tasted dozens of raw chocolate products (raw cacao) as well, and NO ONE has the consistent quality and taste of the Sunfood products. Try it for yourself and see. Customer Rating: Summary: Expensive and anemic little things Comment: I couldn't believe the price for these berries, and they're a third of the size they should be. I'll stick to buying mine from the local Asian foods grocery at $3.25 a pound. Customer Rating: Summary: 5 stars for the quality of the food, 2 for the price Comment: The antioxidant properties of Goji Berries are ones you can feel immediately upon consuming them. They're a legit superfood, however, the price is outrageous. If you're comparing them with a dried snack fruit like raisins, they're 8x the cost (for organic). If paying $6 for an afternoon snack is up your alley, then there probably isn't a much better snack for you than these Goji berries.
My only beef with goji berries are that they are BONE dry. So dry, in fact, they could hurt your teeth, if you have sensitive teeth. I actually know someone who chipped a tooth on goji berries. Soaking them is ideal, and then using the juice in smoothies, not to waste the antioxidants that washed off into the water.
