Don't fall for the price. These walnuts taste HORRIBLE of some chemical taste! I repeat HORRIBLE. I had previously purchased some baking walnuts on the grocery baking aisle and they were PERFECT. More expensive than Sams but they TASTE right is all I can say. I plan to retrn them to Sams.

These walnuts are usually the best. However, this batch smells rancid. The best if used by is Aug038083. The numbers and letters above it are PR#10511. I don’t know how to read this expiration date. I don’t know if they have been recalled or if I just got a bad bag.

Been buying this brand for years. Never had a problem before with them turning rancid, until last year. Thought I’d try them once more, but am disappointed. Expires next year, according to the bag. Stored in freezer as soon as received. Still turning rancid already. I guess I’ll have to try another brand. Hope they get the problem resolved soon.

I opened a brand new bag of these walnuts and found a white, chitin-like substance and flying bugs inside the bag. The bag was completely sealed and had been sitting on a shelf in my basement for about 10 days. I had bought these walnuts many times in the past with no issues. I immediately dumped the bag in the garbage and will never purchase them again. It's unfortunate as the local Sam's I shop at sells only Member's Mark walnuts.

Check the best by date on Member's Mark walnuts before purchase. I bought a bag in Las Cruces, NM, with a best by date of Sep 20 2022 and they smelled and tasted off. The nuts have been stored in a cool dry place so I know they didn't go rancid at my home. This is the first time I've encountered rancid walnuts from Sam's. Reading reviews after opening the bag, other customers who purchased Member's Mark walnuts with best by dates of Aug and Sep 2022 have had a similar issue.

We like to buy nuts in bulk when they are on sale and keep them in the refrigerator or freezer. In October 2022 I purchased 5 bags of these walnuts. They have a best used by date of May 19, 2023. I just opened the first bag and they smell and taste rancid. I am very disappointed because we have been eating these walnuts for several years and they have usually been quite good.

The price is great now, but even though dated a year ahead, mine are borderline rancid, if not already. Specifically ordered just nuts, of 3 bags, 2 were blown open. Fedex delivery disappoints also. Last asstd. order was canceled as "undeliverable". My reorder looked as if it was ransacked, half of items ripped open.

I bought these yrs. ago and they were wonderful, The next time I bought them they were rancid so I waited till late fall to order hoping they would be fresh, I bought 6 lbs. recently and they smell rancid too. I won't be buying anymore, I shop online and it is too much of a hassle to return them.

I have been buying Walnuts from Sam’s club for years. When they switched from Diamond Brand to MM the quality became very poor. I have bought 3 bags since, hoping that it was just a bad batch, but still no better. Some are old and some are dried up and bitter. I have even found a few small shells. Please fix this.

Every year we experience the same thing. As you are cleaning the bins out from last years' crop a greater amount of rancid nuts show up. We finally quit buying Member's Mark walnuts until into next year. It's messy to spit out a mouthful of cereal and nuts two to three times per bowl at breakfast. PS They were bought at our locak Sam's, not online.
