Longevity Dehydrated Sea Grapes, 4.23 oz of 6 packs, Umibudo Green Caviar, Lato Seaweed, Precious Gift From The Sea | Enhance Health, Boosting Immune System.

Such a pretty green! I did two 5 minute soaks (one with room temp water, a rinse in between, and one with VERY cold ice water) and they turned out perfect! No strong taste, just crunchy goodness.

These are as described, however, I’ve never eaten them up to this point so I have no basis of comparison. They’re delicious, crunchy, and If I didn’t know any better, I’d say they were literally just harvested from the ocean to my plate (if all directions are followed for preparation).

When I opened one of the individual packages, I was expecting a dried (dehydrated) sea grape. Instead the pouches contain a partially dehydrated sea grape that was moist. I wish this had registered with me but it didn't. Followed the instructions, watched the tendrils unfurl (pretty cool actually) and placed a bunch on my rice and chicken bowl for lunch. The flavor was very mild, almost tasteless with a crunchy texture to the little grapes that pop in your mouth. So far so good.About halfway through my stomach started to feel funny and then was full-on nausea. I stopped eating them and grabbed the box to read it. Under Instructions, there was header labeled Precautions with 5 bullet points. The first 4 are pretty benign until you get to the 5th one stating: "Some small organisms may be mixed with the Sea Grapes, but it is very safe for consumption and no effect on quality." I freaked out. What organisms pray tell?! Now my stomach was in a full on revolt, it felt like I had gotten food poisoning. Like when I had eaten something bad in a foreign country. Side note, the product is manufactured in Vietnam. The nausea and stomach upset lasted for several hours even after a trip to Urgent Care since this felt like food poisoning. Since travelling a fair bit, I never take these things lightly and they can last depending on whether you've ingested bacteria, viruses or parasites. The fact that the sea grapes were moist in their pouches allows for the possibility of contamination by water-borne organisms that are carried in the sea grape and/or in the processing at the facility in Vietnam. Either way, it doesn't inspire confidence.Conclusion: This product has a statement on their packaging stating there may be organisms in their product but not to worry. I would strongly disregard that. This tidbit of information is not mentioned anywhere on the product description on Amazon. You'd have to see this physically on the box in your hand. In addition, this is labeled "Longevity Dehydrated Sea Grapes" which is misleading. When people see a product is "dehydrated" they expect the product to be thoroughly dried, devoid of any moisture content. The product labeling should have said, "partially dehydrated" so you would know that the product still contains native liquid or has water content in it.Now I'm taking naturopathic herbs to kill parasites and bacteria since that is what I've probably gotten from eating this stuff. I would avoid this at all costs!

I was really curious to try sea grapes after seeing videos of people eating them—they looked super crunchy and fun to eat. Preparation was easy, and the packaging seemed fine, but the taste was a letdown.I expected a light, ocean-like flavor, but instead, it reminded me of river mud—like taking a mouthful while swimming. The texture wasn’t as crunchy as I had hoped either. I love seaweed, jellyfish salad, and most seafood, so I thought I’d enjoy this too, but it just didn’t work for me.I wouldn’t recommend the packaged version. Maybe fresh sea grapes at the beach are a different experience, but this one was disappointing.

This is great for asmr. I always wanted to try these and they were exactly what i hoped for. They taste like ocean and they made me a lil gassy. I have IBS though and these didnt hurt me too badly... still, proceed with caution! Drink water with this dish. It tastes really good with sweet sauces. I like them with thai sweet chilli sauce and ponzu.They have a nice crunch and an odd texture. Watching them grow in the water is fun and you really dont need to follow the exact recipe every single time. I simply soak them in the purest water i can find, with a few ice cubes in it. The package has a few packets of the seaweed.

They have a faint sea taste but they are very mild. The texture is the same burst as caviar.I don’t know if the price is fair or not you get 2 small packets but they get much larger as they soak. We rinsed then soaked in cold water for 10 minutes then switched to ice water for a few minutes and that seemed perfect.

I prefer them plain or with a little lemon juice fresh squeezed. The texture was crisp and had a salty taste. The hydrated them plain water took less than a minute. Enjoyed them as a snack.

I bought this because I saw them on TikTok and they looked like a fun texture. The video said if you follow the directions it won’t taste salty. Unfortunately for me, no matter how many times I rinsed and soaked them, it still tasted like I stuck my face in the ocean to graze. I give two stars only because the texture was wonderful, even if the flavor was not.
