Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The first one I bought towards the end of last year and was great (Lot #3010780). This one I just got (Lot #3032780) smelled and tasted borderline rancid. I tried a little with my breakfast like I normally do, and it irritated my stomach. What ever happened to quality control? Is NOW just dumping a bad batch on us hoping we'll buy something defective (and maybe poisonous)??? There are other NOW products I buy and like, but they really dropped the ball with this batch. A quick skim of the reviews shows I'm not the only one...
