365 by Whole Foods Market, Organic Cocktail Sauce, 10 FZ

I gave this 5 stars so it would be at the top of readers, but its really 1 star at best. Oh, its a good buy ... but its AWFUL. I tried it out & it tastes TERRIBLE. I was mad at myself for this nasty purchase ( it has no hi-fructose corn syrup, fillers, or MGO etc. ... but it also has NO TASTE !!.) what made me really mad - at myself - is that I ordered TWO BOTTLES !! ...Really? DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!

Great taste. Great ingredients. Perfect for shrimp cocktails.

Since i wrote the original review, I've experimented with it.I added 1/4th teaspoonful of guar gum thickener to 1 Cup of the sauce and that really helped it thicken up. (If you are not familiar with guar gum, it's a powder you can buy at some grocery stores or specialty shops. It's best used in cold food items. Heat breaks it down. So putting it in this cocktail sauce is a perfect use for it. It thickens up quickly, in just a minute or two.)Now I've had the opportunity to taste it on chilled shrimp and I find it's fits my taste pretty well.I would say it is fairly similar to Cross and Blackwell.My original review is below:It tastes a bit watered down and the texture is limp.It won't be very good to dip shrimp in. The sauce will run right off.I think the flavor is "ok", but could use just a bit more horseradish.I really miss Cross abd Blackwell's brand of cocktail sauce!If any one knows of a good substitute for it, I'd sure like to know about it!

Good seafood cocktail sauce. Not too spicy but good overall balance of flavor to go with shrimp etc.

Very good. Hot! Good texture.

Too sweet

When opened it smelled "off" and was very sour and a bit bitter tasting, NOTHING like the 365 cocktail sauce I've bought from WF before. Was definitely sealed and not previously opened. It was like it was fermenting or something? Anyway, waste of $'s, tossed it.
