Wonderful product.
나는 이 제품에 대해 매우 만족합니다. 검정콩의 상태도 매우 우수하고 그리고 배송기간이나는 이제품에 대해 매우 만족합니다. 우선 가격도 적당한것 같고 품질 적당한 것 같습니다. 고맙습니다.
I am very satisfied with this product. The condition of the black beans is also very good, and I am very satisfied with the delivery period and this product. First of all, the price seems reasonable and the quality seems reasonable. Thank you.
Clean, well packaged and healthiest looking black turtle beans I have ever purchased anywhere. Even better is that they are sourced from a few provinces away from where we are. That is as local as we can get. I highly encourage you to try them.
I love this beans, very good product
These turtle beans are scrumptious! Our taco nights are 100 times better now! We have also used them in soup and refried them for burritos. Very versatile and a great protein!
