Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I've purchased these in the past at the store and have always been happy with them. But *this* shipment from Amazon arrived as a dried out clump in the bottle. I realize that they get a 'drier' look and feel to them after they're opened, but this was an unopened package. I decided to go ahead and take a couple and they were drier than 'fresh', but the taste and texture were okay. That is until only about a week later when it looked like a white powder (mold?) was forming on them. I took a photo for this review and pitched them. Edit: The second picture is what they *should* look like. I purchased that batch from the local store.
