Okay, but old stock?
I ordered 2lb of this powder in July 2014. Three weeks after it arrived I started using it and noticed that it didn't have a distinctive beet aroma. It didn't smell or taste bad, but it smelled different to the other beet powders I've tried. I then noticed that both bags were marked &#34;RBF3-13A&#34;, which I guessed was a date code meaning Red Bunny Farms, March 2013. If that was correct then the date code was 16 months older than my order date, which could have accounted for the lack of a distinctive beet aroma.<br /><br />Anyway, I provided feedback to Red Bunny Farms in August 2014 with the following question:<br /><br />&#34;The Lot Number on both 1lb packs I received three weeks ago is RBF3-13A. Does that mean they were packed in March 2013?&#34;<br /><br />That was nearly two months ago and they still haven't responded to the question, so I'm left with the assumption that the beet powder I received  was over a year old.<br /><br />To be clear, I still used the powder and apart from the lack of aroma it seems fine, and the price was good. However, I'm only giving it three stars because Red Bunny Farms appears to have shipped quite old stock, and they failed to respond to my question.
