5.0 out of 5 stars Yummy!
Finding a quick, nutritious, satisfying vegan treat is no small feat! This is it...I always have an emergency ginseng ball in my purse, just in case I get the munchies when I'm out and about in the big, bad junk food world we live in. And THIS is the way to buy them! Less than HALF of what Whole Foods charges...
I shouldn't be telling you all this...I never want...

3.0 out of 5 stars My kids were not impressed
I bought these for my husband to keep at work, but thought my kids would like to help taste-test. They wouldn't even finish a 1/2 ball each, lol. I ended up eating each of theirs. Pretty dry and tasteless, but apparently good for you.

I shouldn't be telling you all this...I never want amazon to be "sold out" when I come looking for my ginseng ball fix. Never mind. They're awful. Don't buy them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good nutrition-pretty good taste!, February 8, 2007
This review is from: Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls,Nut Butter Gluten-Free 1.4-Ounce Balls, 40-Count Jar (Grocery)
I tried Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls because I read the nutrition
information and you get 40% of your daily requirement for vitamin A in
one serving. At this point in my quest to eat healthier, I've read lots
and lots of nutrition labels, finding this much vitamin A in a snack is
rare. Finding something "deep green" in color that actually tastes pretty good is rare. If you're looking for a yummy, sugery snack this
is not for you! If you are looking for a healthier snack to replace grabbing for that cookie, this snack is worth checking out!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not much for taste, but effect is very good, August 18, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls,Nut Butter Gluten-Free 1.4-Ounce Balls, 40-Count Jar (Grocery)
I tried this item just because it's a a ginseng snack. I found it to be not particularly tasty, but the overall effect of increased stamina is true. I'm not sure about spirulina in general, but one ball per day does the trick for me when it comes to increased stamina lasting several days.

I thought they would taste like algae or grass but they did NOT! Deliciously nutty and filling at only 150 calories! I used to drag through my morning at work.. I ate one of my coworkers' because it was the only food available. Amazing. Yummy and energizing.. and after one, I wasn't hungry for the rest of the afternoon.

I can't believe how great these are. I bought these about 9 months ago and they were going to expire so I decided to try one. I feel amazing!!! I had lots of extra energy without the side effects of caffeine. It tasted pretty good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good yum ok, December 12, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls,Nut Butter Gluten-Free 1.4-Ounce Balls, 40-Count Jar (Grocery)
I just bought a box since its so much cheaper than getting single ones, usually 1$ + each. 1. they are healthy and vegan, 2. i leave a box of em at work for breakfast, quick and easy. 3. the taste is on the good level compared to healthy snack bars, taste like nuts and rasins, n a bit of the green stuff, but its fine if u usually eat things like this. It is moist n chewy. Overall, I like the taste and will buy more.

Guys, you really should get these little green spirulina-ginseng balls! My two college kids practically beg to get them! :-) My husband and I also love to have a few with us on trips. Great snacks. Great taste compared to a lot of healthfood snacks. Clean and green and healthy for you!

We actually put BETTY LOU'S SPIRULINA-GINSENG BALLS in our Christmas Stockings this year and everyone cheered!

Do yourself a favor. Buy the big canister. They are tons cheaper this way and you won't run out as fast.

5.0 out of 5 stars Tasty and good for me too., December 1, 2007
This review is from: Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls,Nut Butter Gluten-Free 1.4-Ounce Balls, 40-Count Jar (Grocery)
I ordered these spirulina-ginseng balls because they contained spirulina, a superfood, and they are high in fiber and low in sugar. I think they are delicious and also very filling. I like the mildly sweet taste and the slight almond flavor. And, I am always happy that I'm eating healthy and enjoying it.

These are not sweet like candy - they have a very mild sweetness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why buy granolia bars?, January 4, 2007
This review is from: Betty Lou's Spirulina-Ginseng Balls,Nut Butter Gluten-Free 1.4-Ounce Balls, 40-Count Jar (Grocery)
These are a great substitute for granolia bars and much better for you. They are not based on grains but on greens instead. Taste is a tad bit green but if you eat whole foods at all then you'll love these. -Plus they give a good energy boost throughout the day!
