I ordered 4 lbs of the yellow dot and so far they are pretty dang good. I haven't been baking as much as I usually do so that might be helping but so far its some of the best I've had in a few months. I got double charged for them though, I reached out to customer service and I was a bit nervous because I've seen a few reviewers say it was nightmare but Jess was professional and responded quickly. Apparently the issue was caused because I have two different addresses currently and the money has already been put back in my account!

I considered lying and saying this was awful just so I could get the entire lot for myself! But then I remembered Im nice and also broke…

The new yellow dot is it! I am a poppy seed expert. I live my life with a spine injury and baking is the only thing I find therapeutic. Over the years I’ve gotten my ingredients from several different places. But I always come back here. FSB consistently shows up and does right by their customers.

I know we all have different taste buds but this is my favorite lot from the past year. Antony- get your hands on all you can!

Also i apologize For not using my real first name as it is easily found when people google me. But that’s my real last name and this is a real review.

But if you don’t trust it and you want to leave all the yellow for me, that is okay too. I can smell the muffins baking now. ❤️

First off, I just want people to be realistic here. Yes, the price set by the industry about 3 years ago sucks to high heaven. We all know why that happened back then. We also ALL remain just as baffled, and even more PO-ed that it has remained high despite the initial reasons for it no longer applying….
Unfortunately, that is just the nature of economics, and the definition for supply and demand.
So, with all of that out of the way, along with the hope of ever achieving the freshness levels of old (flavor potency), all a consumer can truly hope for nowadays is product quality, transparency, along with the best reasonable price.
Without a doubt FSB does way more for its customers than ANY other vendor out there… END OF STORY!
This fact isn’t even up for debate at this time. Most companies could care less about the quality of their product, and they sure as heck don’t actively work more to procure the best available product offered in the market place for their customers. If you haven’t figured it out on your own by now, FSB is an industry “unicorn”, and its loyal customers are quite appreciative of what they do for us. Being in the shipping and logistics industry myself, I can tell you that it takes significantly xtra time and intensive efforts to do what they do… business in this industry is just not normally done this way, because it is just more work and harder to do than maintaining the status quo… especially when other companies are relying upon past successes and quality to somehow justify them currently offering and selling an extremely poor product…. All at premium level prices.
I don’t usually write reviews, but when a company does a great job by out working it’s competitors, they need to be recognized for it (so they will keep doing it… and maybe someday lowering prices too, when feasible).
So, either way, just call me Mr. Appreciative and please DO keep up the good “extra work” FSB!

Yellow isn't horrible. Use poppy points or discounts to clean Antony out so he orders a new pallet. These are about like red, both better than teal, but a not white dot. I'm a frequent taster. The yellows are more energetic. I'm looking forward to Spring batches. I'm rooting for Antony to strike gold. C'mon Antony, not whammies on the next one. Your lucky number is overdue. But thanks for discounting your way through these late winter batches. Still mostly better than that what else is out there. I'm reminiscing about the purple from the old reviews below.

This lot is not worth ordering any more. They are not the worst, but not as good as what I have come to expect from FSB.
