Last time I ordered masago (pictured right), requested a refund, and received a credit. (Order No. 94968465 was refunded.) However, now that I have received tobiko (pictured left), I feel as though I was wrong. I now believe that the part circled in yellow was not torn, but should have been torn. I have not yet thrown away the masago, so please accept the credit I received previously.

The prices are much better than Asian markets, the food is fresh, and it's packaged very carefully. I need to buy groceries from Wee every week, but there's no fresh food delivery service through Gofftown, so I can only order through a friend or acquaintance. It's a shame because it's so inconvenient! Hopefully, they will offer fresh food delivery through Gofftown in the future. I'll only buy from Wee and won't need to go to any other market anymore.

Very good quality products.

It's frozen now, I'll make it another day. Looking forward to it.
