Great Value Parsley Flakes, 2.7 oz

I bought the 2.7 oz container of Great Value Parsley Flakes because I got tired of buying fresh parsley only to watch it turn into sad, wilted mush in the fridge after three days. Dried parsley isn't exciting, but it's reliable. When I opened the container, the smell was mild but definitely green and herbal—not dusty or stale. The flakes are a decent size, not ground down to powder like some brands. You can actually see what you're adding. I've used it mostly as a finishing touch on things that needed a little color and a whisper of freshness. Sprinkled on roasted potatoes, stirred into pasta salad, mixed into meatballs. It doesn't add a ton of flavor the way fresh parsley would, but it does add something. Think of it as a background note rather than a star player. One thing I appreciate: no stems. Every now and then I'd find a tiny piece of stem in a cheaper brand, but this one seems to be mostly leaf. The container has a shaker top with holes that are actually the right size for parsley flakes. No shaking violently just to get a few specks out. My only complaint is that the flavor fades pretty quickly after opening. The first few weeks, it had a nice herbal brightness. By week six, it was noticeably duller. I'm hoping the rest of the jar holds up, but I've started using it more generously to compensate. If you need parsley for looks and a hint of green flavor, this works fine. Just don't expect fresh herb magic.

I like shopping at Walmart. It’s very convenient especially with Instacart. Usually the person is doing your grocery shopping. I will give them a 95 and also if your food is damaged or missing, they don’t argue with you Instacart automatically give you a refund.

From school days, I remember the school cafeteria cooks talking about how advantageous parsley would be to the diets of us kids. They started serving parsley potatoes at school with some of the meals, and it was one of my favorite lunch side dishes.

We thought the bottle was used. There is a 2" void at the top of the bottle. It is only 3/4 full. Is this "shrinkflation"? Less product for the same money? Shame

This item was received with the seal attached-but please look at how much is ACTUALLY in this $5.00 plus item. I understand items settling/but this amount appears to be a problem in the packing process.

This is a brand-new unsealed container of parsley flakes that was delivered to me today. Are you kidding me..?

Item is usually purchased during our grocery shopping. Yet this time it was very empty-unopened-but very empty

I legit thought someone stole some of the parsley but no it was sealed!

The container is SEALED AND ONLY HALF FULL? I KNOW AND YOU KNOW THAT THE SHOPPER FOR MY BASKET SAW THIS AND STILL PUT IT IN MY BASKET?
