Goji berries

Anyone eat these? I've been reading up on different healthy foods and have seen these a few times. If so can you tell me about them? How they taste, what you use them in, etc. TIA!

yes!!!!!!!

I eat them loose as a snack. I know some sprinkle them on salads/yogurt/etc.

They taste......hmmm.....they are kind of chewy......they kind of taste like a mild raisin mixed with cranberry/raspberry flavor.

They do leave a weird aftertaste, I find.

I also LOVE golden berries aka gooseberries........they are so tart and delicious..like a lemon-y grape.

Re: Goji berries

I love them Chat Icon I just eat a handful of them on their own. I imagine they would be nice sprinkled in salads or over oatmeal or yogurt.

I eat them on their own a snack. I have a friend who adds them to trail mix, granola, and smoothies.
