very good side dish
Can’t wait to eat ! It’s second time ordering this.
The taste is good, and the quality is also good.
It tastes good to me
It was OK. A tad bit too sweet. I won’t be buying it again.
Sweet, not too salty, even kids can eat it
Reminds me of eating school meals in Korea!
Convenient, because shelf-stable and my package came with a generous expiration date. Beans themselves have a good texture.
Not enjoyable. The texture is rough and flavor is tasteless despite it’s supposed to be a soy braised flavor. Not getting this again
My precious side dish~ Moist, salty and sweet
