Ive been purchasing the cutie clementines fror quite a while now, the quality is really bad now. They are mixing bad/old clementines and selling them. I have seen molded clementine in the bags, so I search through bags trying to find the best ones, to no avail, I get home and they just age at way different rates and I throw away the bulk of the bag. One thing I have learned in life, i guess you are waiting for someone to get sick, only then will you stop selling garbage old food.

I have bought these at least five times in the past. All purchases were excellent. My last purchase was three bags, all of which were rotten. Very difficult to tell this inside the bag. We were very disappointed. I'm sure if I'll buy them again, because I don't want to lose that much fruit. Three good bags only lasts about a week at my house. Refund???

Shame on you, Sam's. The last couple of times I've bought these, half the bag is either mushy, an odd greenish color, or both. The first time I thought maybe it was just an unlucky draw. The second time I realized it's poor quality control on Sam's behalf. It's very frustrating to spend over $8.00 on something that's inedible, especially in this economy. I'll be purchasing these somewhere else from now on.

I have shopped at Sam's for years and years and have never been disappointed with any of my purchases until now. I purchased these mandarins and literally half of them had to be thrown away because they were either already split open and rotten, or they had white mold growing on them. Very disappointed!

5 Clementines in a 5 pound bag were moldy. The bag of Mandarins was picked out by an associate as part of my on-line pick-up order. My advice to associates and shoppers is, "look and smell the bag before putting it in the cart". I ended up getting almost 4 pounds of fruit for the price of 5 pounds.

These are absolutely divine! We always get the same fruit and wanted to try something different than our norm. These are sweet, juicy and easy to peel. Instead of reaching for midnight sweets, I just grab one (or two) of these. I was skeptical allowing my son to peel his own at first but he had no problems (he's 3 years old). The bag we have was ordered with Click N' Pull. My suggestion would be to inspect ALL of your items before paying for them. First, to be sure that everything it says you are paying for is everything that you Actually ordered and is actually in your cart. Second, to make sure everything has a decent expiration date. And finally, to make sure all of your products are up to your standards (i.e. checking for bad produce, bent containers, etc.)

This is the FOURTH bag I’ve purchased over 3 separate occasions that are aged. The clementines look good when in the bag, but once home, it’s evident that they are aged. The skin is thin and hardening and difficult to peel off the fruit. Clementines have a distinct taste when they’re in the end stages before expiring. These have all had that taste. Very disappointing. I’m so tired of Sam’s produce being in ‘end stages’ and expiring within a day or two of purchase. Sam’s used to have the best produce, but there has been a marked decline in quality over the last couple years. I may need to look into a C*stco membership as I hear their produce is excellent. This Sam’s is at the Springfield Missouri Camino Alto location.

I'm pobably not going to buy these any more here. Every time we have , about 4-5 days later, at least one cutie is covered with green and the rest are soft. I know from being in the business that this is an environmental QC problem where the fruit is exposed to spores in the packaging environment. There is a rinse to kill the spores but has to be done early on, unfortunately once the spores infect the fruit the rinse is ineffective. I'll find a different brand. Others have mentioned the mushy fruit. Surprised this hasn't been dealt with, and now i'm addressing Sam's Club QC.

Searched for bag of good oranges, however many bags already contained very soft of molded oranges. Though i snagged a pretty good bags after searcing. Got home and had to throw out 4 oranges as they had meldew, checked the rest of the oranges but to my supeise 4 days in and already have several more mussy and oranges starting to mold. 4 more lost and we eat a few daily no more left 8 trashed back to buy more.

Our club sometimes stocks Halos, which are usually excellent. Now, they stock Cuties which were absolutely Flavorless. Absolutely terrible. More flavor in a wet paper towel. If you see Cuties for sale at your club, avoid all temptation to buy them. If you do buy them, get some orange drink mix, cut the top and bottom of the mandarin oranges off and soak them in orange drink mix for a couple weeks. About the only chance these will taste even remotely orange.
