I have been buying this product at Sam's Club for a very long time but yesterday was the first time I ever got something that was almost unedible. I couldn't find an expiration date on the bag but when I opened it at home to use it half of the asparagus stalks were no good. So tough you couldn't even snap it. Very dissatisfied with this product and it may keep me from buying it again. To be honest the quality of the asparagus at Walmart is much better. It was a waste of my $8 for that bag

So much of the asparagus in this package was unusable - after trimming off the tough ends I ended up with a lot of waste - brown nasty unedible stalks. I put the waste on a scale to find I was throwing out 10.8 ounces. In a 2 pound bag, that's 1/3 waste! Better picking out my own at the grocery store for sure.

If Sam's were closer to my home, I would have returned it, but I didn't really want to save it until the next time I returned to the warehouse... The quality was just terrible. Tough and flavorless, plus some of the tops were starting to rot because of moisture inside the sealed bag. I will not be buying asparagus again from Sam's.

Every time I buy from Curbside I always get rotten and old produce. This practice is very aggravating . Don't buy anything perishable curbside. Sam's policy is clearly to give you the oldest garbage they have without concern for health , safety and value for your dollar

I went in, to pick out my own package's, so I could check the expiration date's, before buying them, along with the size's, if it was a relatively new crop(Between 1-5yrs), or older batch(Older than 5yrs with growing), as the stem's start out super thin, then grow wider, with age of how long they have been growing them. I used to do agriculture work for a doctor, that had a raised garden bed, with nothing but Asparagus growing in it. And, every year, they grew fatter & fatter. Now, to remove ALL of the bitter straw-like texture(Which, how old it is, from when it was first cut, can be told, with how much of that area, there is), you take your thumb & forefinger, of one hand, and grab about 1/2-2/3rd's up from the cut end, and then grab the cut end, and start to bow/bend it, and the cut end that snap's off, is the old bitter straw-like texture, that you don't want to keep. And, this method also eliminate's the need to use a knife to cut them, at all, unless you are cutting them into bite-sized pieces, of course. I always steam them, in our Asparagus steamer pot, and melt some butter, along with some minced garlic, Basil(Sweet), Crushed Rosemary & Oregano in the melted butter, and pour it over the steamed Asparagus in a serving bowl, with a light sprinkle of coarse ground Sea Salt on it.

While putting asparagus in the refrigerator after shopping at Sam’s, noticed liquid in the bag. The asparagus was very mushy and old.

Used to buy all the time when it was $3.98. But since they raised it to $5.98 I just cant afford it anymore. Hopefully they will lower the price soon. But it is the best tasting I've ever had!!

I love asparagus for the nutrional value but this stuff is almost never fresh. The product on the shelf is usually wet in appearance, meaning it's too ripe. If they'd keep the product fresh, I'd gladly change my rating.

I am so glad you went back to the brand you are carrying at the Joplin Sam's Club, this brand is by far better than the GG brand you were carrying, I had quit buying it because it was never as fresh and good as this.

We love fresh asparagas. Picked up a package of this asparagas and will never make the same mistake again. It looked fresh. I have no idea why it was so tough. We couldn't chew through it.
