Do Not Buy!!! I have always been a big fan of bagged broccoli from Sam’s last year! I bought this brand just last week & I didn’t suspect that the very strong foul odor in my fridge was coming from this unopened bag! I decided to wash it all with vinegar and water but the odor was intense and lingered! I had to toss it the moment I found out (thanks google) that these greens can be associated with salmonella!!! To the garbage disposal it went forever!!!!

Not sure if I had a bad batch but they were very strong smelling of fart lol I moved them to another ziploc bag with paper towels to remove moisture and they still smelled strong. Didn't last long. Would recommend freezing maybe but great price and the florets are a great size.

Purchased this on 02/01/20, it wasnt outdated and looked fine, when I opened the bag the smell was so bad it stunk up the whole kitchen. It smelled like it was rotten or had soured, I washed it with cold water then steamed a little of it, but it was horrible. I then washed the remainder of it in warm soapy water, still smelled horrible. I even put baking soda on it and let it set for a while. I let it set in the colander all night to air out but I had to throw it away, there was just no fixing this stuff. Total waste of money, I WILL NOT be buying any more bagged veggies from Sams.

I have been buying this broccoli for years and I have noticed that the broccoli stinks as if it is already gone bad. After opening the bag I can see that there are several slimy pieces and the rest just won't taste right. I have tried picking the ones with the longer due date but that did not help. I think the problem is that there are no air holes for the broccoli to breathe therefore the moisture inside of the bag makes it go bad sooner. I would rather buy fresh or frozen broccoli.

I've had issues with Taylor Farms products before... I no longer purchase their romaine lettuce because it's often infested with aphids... However, I do occasionally pick up this broccoli at Sam's Club... I am now officially over Taylor Farms... I always clean my produce, whether it says 'ready to use' or not... Today, I was in the process of washing, trimming, and prepping a bag of this broccoli and noticed a light green caterpillar-like bug in one of the florets... I put it to the side thinking it was just that one floret, but I picked up another and it had the same bug... I packed all of the broccoli back up, stapled the bag shut, and it's going back to Sam's Club tomorrow. Can you imagine if I'd just thrown some in a skillet? I'm itching just thinking about it... So, yeah - Taylor Farms and their quality control is a joke... If you purchase this product, be prepared to look for and possibly consume bugs, right out of their 'ready to eat' bag...

OMG, This was the worst broccoli. The smell was awful. I eat a lot of raw vegetables, specifically broccoli and carrots. I have never smelled broccoli like this. I will definitely not be purchasing again. My kids came out of their rooms and asked what that dead smell was. It was also still well within the date on the package.

This broccoli smells so bad. As soon as I opened the packaged I could tell something wasn't right but it looked fresh. I thought if I went ahead and steamed it, maybe the weird smell would go away but it got worse. My husband came home while I was steaming the broccoli and he said he thought there was some kind of sewage backup in the house. I immediately threw it all away.

Something weird is going on with this product, and this brand. First, the last purchase of spring mix tasted heavily saturated with chemicals even after throughly washing with AVC and baking soda, and the broccoli looked fresh to the eye, but did not pass the smell test. It reeked as if it were severely rotten, and we had to toss the entire bag away, uneaten.

There was definitely something wrong with the broccoli I purchased and tried to use the same day I bought. It looked great in the package but when I opened it my whole kitchen immediately filled with a very strong smell which my family guests immediately noticed. I washed the broccoli and steamed it. It smelled even stronger cooked and turned a weird green-black (but it was not overcooked). It remained very firm but tasted like preservatives? or something? I paid nearly $4 for the bag of broccoli and didn't get to eat but the one bad bite!

I had to trim the bottom of every single floret because they were brown. I was really counting on them being fresh like in the picture online for a salad I was serving that same day. My order was picked up, so I wasn't the one who inspected the bag. This is a Sam's Club issue, not the brand. I normally don't leave bad reviews, but this has happened before when I purchased a bag of celery that had brown stalks in it. Yes, some stalks were completely brown (not just spots here and there) and I had to throw out the entire bag. Sam's Club needs to pull old produce off the shelves AND get better order pickers who inspect the produce first. Forgot to mention the brown produce was "clearly visible" looking at the bags without opening them. I hope Sam's Club executives read these reviews and make the necessary changes.
