I cut open this product and instantly was assaulted with a toasty, earthy healthy smelling flaxseed aroma! I know this item was fresh because I have never experienced such a pungent smell with any ground seed I have purchased.
I added this product to my morning yogurt. It mixed in really well and did not get soggy. Of course I felt great knowing I was eating healthy organic fiber with omega-3 fatty acids.
I often overlook fiber in my diet. However, when fiber is this tasty, it is easy to remember to add it to cereal, smoothies, yogurt and baked goods to replace flour or eggs.
I keep this pouch in the freezer just to make sure it stays the freshest it can be for the longest time. Since this item is a generous 15 oz (excellent buy for $8.99 on Amazon.com) it will last a few months and I do not want it to get rancid in the South Florida temperatures.
More kudos to Viva Labs in offering this product: Non GMO, Vegan, and Gluten Free. So wonderful to have all of these benefits in a fiber. I am so wary of products like Metamucil (now re-marketed as Meta) which add unnecessary chemicals and preservatives, dyes and so much more. Viva Labs Organic Ground Flaxseed is the best Metamucil replacement!
USDA Organic Made in Canada. My new fiber go to! Well done Viva Labs!!
