I will admit I was quite nervous prior to trying but once I tasted the Sunny Day Organics Organically Grown Vanilla Bean Powder my fear was gone. I decided I would add the vanilla bean powder to my green smoothies that contain soy protein powder which has no taste. This smoothie tasted wonderful with the added vanilla. It comes in a brown paper bag texture bag but it is lined with some type of foil on the inside. I would recommend, it does not have a strong or obvious taste. I received this product in exchange for an honest review opinions are my own.
