I like fish flavored nori, does this one have fishy taste?

I have had ones that taste fishier. This is a very good smelling nori and truly tastes more of seaweed than of fish.

Barely a fish taste at all, so you might prefer a different brand. I don't like the fishy taste, so this one is fine for me. Good luck Selen.

No, it's not fishy. You may want to try Wakame seaweed as it is the fishiest.

I personally didn't think it was fishy, but I've been eating nori all my life and I might just be used to the taste.... Sorry, I'm not much of a help :(

It has more of a pungent seaweed flavor with a hint of sea fish. I happen to really like the flavor. Since you appreciate fishy flavor, like me, I recommend this brand. (((-: I hope you find this useful. Sincerely

Yes, and it's very good. Be sure you soak the dried fish for several hours in cold water, changing the water once or twice to make sure the salt is rinsed out and the fish is tender. After I've drained it I make up some bechamel sauce, fold the fish into it, and add whatever seasonings I think it needs. I generally use use salt and white pepper, a few drops of Tabasco, and maybe some seafood seasoning--Old Bay is an excellent brand--as well. This gravy is wonderful over boiled potatoes or buttered toast, and for some reason I think it always tastes especially good for breakfast, lunch, or dinner when the weather is cold. I hope this helps! 745kevin Yes, and it's very good.

Yes, there is a mild ocean/fishy smell to it. I use it in the skin, so I haven't tasted it.

I've tried different brands non smelled like fish though the taste was kinda fishy. I like this one because it doesn't have much of an after taste. A piece of lemon after taking any of this stuff cleanses the palate.

I haven't tried the squid brand, but Red Boat is far better than brand X that I bought that tasted like not much more than salt water with some additive. This isn't harsh, adds real flavor to recipes, and is worth tasting straight just to see how good it really is.

Not at all Aryeh. I washed it with hot/warm soapy water an let it drain prior to the first use, and I did not notice any weird taste.

No, it's not teriyaki or soy sauce, although it looks like them. It's got it's own great flavor. Just try a bottle you'll like it. Then you'll be hooked on it's flavor too.

More of a sea-weedy fishy than shrimpy. (sounds funny to go back and read again) There's no Noodle Iron Law on how you're supposed to use the packets, other than manufacturer's recommendation. I usually throw the spicy hot packet and the noodles in the water at the same time. If I don't want the full lip-tingling experience, I only use half the packet. For the full seafood flavor (sometimes too strong), also throw the toppings packet in at the same time. For a more mellow taste, just sprinkle on top of the noodles after you've put them in the bowl. Your noodles, your choice.

No, it does not. I've been taking this for years, and I stayed with it because it does not have a fishy taste.

I have no idea! Usually it is better in winder, I hear. I am a caviar lover and I don't mind lower grade caviar. This is not the sushi grade, but still good!

Krill oil does not have a fishy after taste or fishy burps. I hope this helps.

I agree with everyone else. Have ordered it online And bought at Trader Joe's and never had a fishy taste. Maybe take it back, and/or try it again and give it another shot. It's worth it!

I broke one open to check for freshness. It did have a salmon/shrimp taste to it. But, no spoilage was evident. I have also not noticed any fishy burps after ingestion. But, you might want it to take it before or in the middle of a meal to help prevent "fishy" burps afterwards.

Yes! I find it does have a fishy taste. And I mix it in with shakes that have lots of other things in it to cover the fish taste. It still overpowers the shake some times. I use less than a tsp. In the shake just to give you an idea.

I don't notice any seafood flavor, so I asked my family, and they say it's either a dried oyster or clam taste. At one time, they used to put actual dried oyster in it to give it flavor. I don't think it's fishy at all.

It does have a slight taste, but nothing unpleasant. It's like Leslie said, when you walk on the beach... :D

Ours certainly didn't smell like fish when it arrived. No problems with it at all.
