Russkoe Pole Buckwheat, 53 oz

Perfectly fine buckwheat.The issue of the expiration date I saw in some reviews? Well, if you know russian you can read on the package that what is printed there by production company is MANUFACTURING date, from that date it is good for 20 more months.The only problem I had so far, one time the order I got was already opened, I assume that it was a return, as the corner was obviously cut with scissors. Gross, do not do that, people. Please.

I bag arrived damaged and spilled. Contacted Amazon and they went out of way to refund entire order. The other bags were great shape and the price very good. Shipped fast.

good size and price

One of my side-quest missions in life is to refer as many people as possible to this specific product on Amazon so they can experience the superior grain for themselves. I was first introduced to buckwheat by a Ukrainian co-worker, but even the Whole Foods in my city doesn’t carry proper buckwheat and a trip to another town with a European store isn’t convenient. Although I can’t read the Russian writing on the bag, I like the packaging design. I’m a geography and history nerd and it makes me feel like I’m eating real Soviet buckwheat. I’ve lost count how many bags I’ve ordered off Amazon. It comes double sealed and always tastes fresh. It’s more filling than rice, but lower in calories and higher in protein. It also cooks up faster than rice and has enough flavor to be eaten plain. I’m off to go cook a pot now.

Can’t find this stuff in stores here, this stuff is great.

Not available for a refund and bag was open and spilled all over in the box

Just like mom used to make.

a real thing
