My 91 year old mom recently told me about St John's Bread - a special treat when she was child. I skeptically ordered 2 pounds for her. She was beyond happy as if transported back in time! ",,,just like when I was a little girl!" Super fresh and very tasty! We are now exploring recipes.

Love this fiber filled snack. Unfortunately, sometimes the pods are dried out. But when they are not, I love them!
