Clumpy not properly processed
Item says not eligible for return, next time I will opt for another brand. I’m not sure this is safe for use as it was obviously moist when sealed. Bummer. Of all the powdered herbs I’ve bought over the last 20 years , I’ve never seen this before in a brand new package.
Thank you for your feedback
