Seaweed Organic Roasted Seaweed Snack, Teriyaki 10g, .35oz 12 Count | Keto, Vegan, Gluten Free, Great Source of Iodine & Omega 3’s, Healthy On-The-Go Snack for Kids Adults

OVERVIEW/ADVICE: This review is for the teriyaki flavor (haven't tried the other ones). If you have never had nori (seaweed) before, or have only had it on sushi or musubi and haven't had it as a snack, this might take a few tries to get used to. I'm the type of person that when I try a "new food" that has a texture-flavor combo that I'm not expecting it can take me a little while to get used to it, if ever at all. Don't expect this to be comparable to potato or corn chips. It's more like a crisp flaky piece of paper and though it isn't dense and as filling as chips, one or two packs usually satisfy most people when they're looking for a snack. This teriyaki flavor is pretty good, but verrry flavorful -- imagine eating a plain tortilla chip, then a Dorito, this is like eating the Dorito. If you're feeding this to the kids (especially baby/toddler), this can be a very messy snack as the nori flakes off, and the granular seasoning also makes a little sprinkly mess, so just be aware of that before you give it to them in the car or somewhere else that may be hard to clean. I'm from Hawaii, and out here we eat a lot of musubi (rice ball wrapped with nori, usually with a piece of spam), and we like taking a piece of this (usually a plain flavor though), putting a little rice in the middle, wrap it like a crepe and pop it in your mouth, or add a veggie/pickled veggie or some kind of meat like teri chicken or spam making little mini musubi. I usually fry up some spam with brown sugar, shoyu and water, then slice it up horizontally to make 1" pieces and assemble a whole bunch on a plate for the kids. This is the lazy-man's musubi... OILY/GREASY: Some people have complained about it being "oily"; this is Korean style seaweed which is usually made by seasoning with oil before roasting whereas Japanese nori does not, so there's the difference. If you don't like the oil, try Japanese nori (Yamamotoyama teriyaki is my favorite) but keep in mind it is quite more expensive. Also, you may find that only occasionally you come across packets with lots of oil separated and sometimes it looks like there's no oil in there at all, and I assume that's just a product of what happens during temperature changes. There's pretty much the same amount of oil no matter what (with the gimMe brand). I have found that the Kirkland brand seaweed seems wayyy greasier than other brands. HEALTH/SUGAR: Nutritional aspect...I've noticed a boom recently with nori, with statements of the health benefits especially as a replacement for chips and crackers; be aware that when you look at the nutritional content, most nori packets don't even list sugar, but any of the flavored ones definitely have sugar in them. Well, however they math it out they're able to get away with not having to list it in the nutritional values -- so I'm not really sure how this affects diabetics. I'm not a nutritional expert, no medical training, not a food scientist, etc. so you know, don't take my word for it, I'm just saying, cane sugar is listed on the ingredients list... I'd personally still consider this a healthier option than chips. I say, give it a try and if you really don't like it Amazon will usually just give a refund (you may have to go through Amazon chat/e-mail/phone, chat I like the best, takes like 2 minutes of your time). I think you might have to give a better reason than, "I don't like it." Maybe it "tastes bad", "too greasy", "smells weird", etc. It's pretty expensive so if you don't like it, get your money back!!

Seaweed lettuce, teriyaki flavored, crunchy, and you eat it plain or with rice. $27 is online price, in store they only have wasabi and chili flavored ones. Wasabi gets sold out fast. It is fresh when you open one. Smells like sea and seaweed, I did you not. I had stale types, this is very good. Size is very good for a quick meal, but if you want something bigger, they might need to make a bigger size. Non seasoned seaweed for rolls works. But if they make big ones I definitely snack on it.

Sooo delicious. So so delicious. My entire family looooves these.

Tasty snack, nice value for many packets. Package well, and easy to carry for lunch or snack on the go.

Love these tasty snacks! Found these to the cheapest way to purchase these. Crispy, salty, and delicious

Love these so much , I ordered it a few days ago but they stole my package so I had to right a report to see if I can get my refund so I can order it again or get a replacement, how ever I'm still waiting for amazon to reply ....so yesterday I spent another $20 to get it today. They are really healthy and tasty.hopefully if I get my amazon refund I will come back here to re-order another pack that's how much I love them

These are absolutely delicious! Sadly, I can't order them anymore because I have no self discipline. Even though they are sold in serving size packs, I'll eat too many of them if they're in the house. You need to monitor you intake. Not just because of sodium, but because of the high iodine content in seaweed Buy them, but don't be a pig! These are not to be used as an all day oral fixation. Lol!

These are completely delicious. The flavor is different than many other seaweed snacks I've tried. They are very addicting. The bad news (for me) if that they have 2 grams of fat per serving (1/2 pack). You can't eat just half the pack because they tend to get stale pretty fast, also a pack isn't very big....so it's easy to eat an entire pack (or more!) I was really hoping to treat these as a "Free food" for myself but with 4 grams of fat per container, I can't do that. They are still better for you than eating chips, but I plan to seek out a lower fat seaweed snack. Flavor wise, I'd give these a 5 star.
