For a while I loved buying this broccoli. Lately it goes bad really fast. I have a bag now, the Best Buy date is 5 days from now but it is starting to become slimy. Not sure if they changed the company or not, but something needs to be done about this.

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.

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...

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!

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!!!!

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.

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.

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.

Rotten. Threw out most of the bag.

I enjoy the convenience of it being ready to serve or cook! Love it!!!
