Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First off, this is a great snack. Loaded with protein, it's a real food (not overly processed), not sugared up, not overloaded with sodium, with relatively few calories for how filling it is -- you don't feel guilty reaching for it. They also taste good, with the one major caveat. The only problem is, like every other review states, the uneven distribution of Wasabi. So, you can go a few handfuls without feeling more than a tingle, and then you grab that one bean. I literally mean ONE bean too, because that's all it takes to get the party started. You won't recognize this one bean from the outside because the coating on all of them is invisible. You will only recognize it when it's inside your mouth burning away the top layers of cells - it's the fire bean. You will find this bean, and you most surely will find it, because there are a few special beans in every package. When you find this one bean it is like a quart of drano down the gullet. That sinus clearing wave of fire that only Wasabi brings. I'm a grown man, appropriately detached from my emotions, and the fire bean has brought me to the point of tears. A withering sobbing wreck, and this is only a slight exaggeration. The burn is like a wasabi burn or Asian food in general though, it passes quickly. Then you'll immediately want to go back to the burn bean lottery, pressing your luck, hoping you can withstand the next barrage.
