Question 1

It says 'product of china', how can it be usda organic?

Accepted Answer

The "Product description" says, "viva Naturals organic Goji berries are handpicked from the Tibetan plateau in the most prestigious regions of the Himalayas". BUT, the answer to Nahe by "Vivian Viva Labs Customer Care" is that "It is well known that the best goji berries in the world come from the NingXia region in China, that is why we source our berries from that region......". Hello, Ms. Vivian, the Ningxia region is totally different region from the Tibetan plateau. If your source of the Goji berries is indeed from the Ningxia region, then the "Product description" is WRONG. Even an elementary kid in China knows that the "Tibetan" and "Ningxia" are far apart, it's like even the American kids know the State of Illinois or Michigan is far from the State of Arizona or New Mexico. Please give the true explaination. .......A Goji lover from mainland China

Question 4

I grew up in Asia; "shade dried" means dust plus poop from cats,mice,worms and such; so is this really pre-cleaned and ready to snack as the bag says?

Accepted Answer

It tasted bad....the goji berries in the bag were hard as rock and stuck together like glue....my advice get another brand...
