I thought it was just me that noticed this brand new packaging of pecans was not good. I noticed shells, which was never a problem and also the nuts looked rotten, they black spots and very dark marks and soft on a lot. I'm considering taking these back for refund, that's too much money to waste. I'm going elsewhere to buy my pecans.

It’s hit or miss with these pecans. They used to always be of good quality. I like to eat these as a snack. Out of the last three bags, only one had the quality they should have. The other two had too many that were very dry and had very little taste.

These pecans are awful. This is the second bag of Daily Chef Fancy Pecan Halves that I've purchased recently. Both were unfit to eat. I would guess that these pecans are well over a year old. My Father-In-Law had pecan trees and the fresh pecans were delicious. These pecans are Stale, Disgusting, Rotten. I called 1-888-301-0332, the number on the back of the product. Initially the agent told me to take them back to the store but I held out for a Supervisor. I gave her the numbers on both bags and they checked my purchase history to assure I really bought these items. I am to be emailed a gift card/certificate for the value of these items. Still a waste of time and money.

Hate to knock a product this much, but the overall quality of these pecans made them unusable. Many "off taste" in the mix. The "off" pecans were noticeably darker and smaller. This was my second poor bag--2 months apart. The value would have been great if the product had been usable.

I have purchased Daily Chef pecans for many years from Sams. This year the bag I bought was horrible. Many of them were not ripe and had no meat. Many of them were too ripe and so hard you could not cut them in half. I haven't even gotten through the entire bag yet and have thrown out at least two cups of bad pecans.

I bought these a few weeks ago and store them in the freezer. I love the resealable bag because I roast them in the oven along with almonds and walnuts so that I have them available as snacks and for oatmeal or yogurt. They're both a great quality and the bulk price on them is wonderful.

Used to be you could count on Sam's to carry nice, plump, great tasting pecans for holiday recipes, but with each bag I've purchased, I've noticed they only seem to go downhill. I would rather pay more for a product that isn't a shriveled, bitter nut that ruins recipes.

I eat pecans about five times per week and have been purchasing bags of pecans from Sam's Club for many years. Daily Chef is the only brand offered at our club (at this time) and I am extremely disappointed in quality and value. Almost half of the pecans found in this 2 LB bag are dried up, have black spots and/or bitter or rancid tasting. I have purchased 3 bags and they were all the same poor quality. I thought I just had a bad batch the first bag and gave it another try. I will be calling the toll free number and/or email using the "feedback" icon and ask for a refund. Bring back the other brand!!

I've bought these for many years but the last bag I bought is dry and half of them have black spots all over them. I'll stop buying them and just wait until next year to see if they are as good as they used to be. I've included pictures so everyone can see what I mean. They are just awful!!!

Always bought Young's pecans at Sam's but the Sam's I was at, had Daily Chef. They were a little cheaper than Young's but the quality was disappointing. Tasted old and the date on the bag was good through 2015. I hope all Sam's don't change to Daily Chef or I'll be going elsewhere to buy pecans. About the only reason I have a Sam's membership.
