Yamahide Hana Katsuo Bonito Flakes, 1 Pound

Bonito for dashi/broth, and for use as topping to rice or noodles. Nice to share with pets who like a fishy treat or food topper. Huge bag, lasts forever (freshness), little goes a long way in dishes.Does not need to be refrigerated, and pretty sure this stuff never goes bad. I may break this bag down into smaller bags just for ease of use and to limit air exposure.Currently $27 for the bag, or a bit less with full subscribe and save ($23), and I think I was able to buy my bag on sale for $20. I dont rate on price, but any of the price points are reasonable. of course, less is better in these times :)

By far the best price for the amount that you get - only one out there that sells it in this size (and not a bunch of individual bags together in smaller sizes.) Always fresh, always packaged with bubble wrap or something around it to protect it. The smell might be strange to humans but cats can smell it a mile away - that's how fresh it is when it's delivered I use a "chip clip" to close it after giving some to my cats as a treat and it is always just as fresh when I go to the bag again a few days or more later to give them more. I have noticed a huge difference in the coats of my cats also - their fur and coats are much more shiny and silky since I have started giving these flakes to them as a treat every few days or so. The flakes are very large and the bag is almost completely full when you receive it (which can't be said for other brands out there of these flakes, much less any chips or otherwise that we humans buy at the store.) I'm very impressed with this company and the amount that they provide for the price. My cats are in love with it and know the bag as soon as I pull it out of the cabinet and immediately line up meowing begging for a treat of these flakes, they're obsessed and i have to hide it otherwise they would never leave me alone for them and would probably break into the bag themselves and help themselves (which did happen once when I didn't close the cabinet door shut tight enough and didn't realize it - they found a way to open the cabinet door up in the middle of the night and get it off the of the shelf and help themselves that night...I found quite the mess the next morning but, that's my fault for not closing the door enough.) Do your furry cat friends a favor and by these for them as a treat, and help their health and coats/fur as a result also while they love you for giving them these!

Huge amount for the price and tasty. I will be buying again.

This bonito is always really fresh and dare I say "plump" right out of the bag. For shaved tuna, the pieces are nicely sized and thick and while it still smells like fish, it is a really good smell. I keep this in my fridge and use it whenever I need a good umami flavoring in my dish. Dogs and cats LOVE bonito so don't be afraid to share some with your fur kids. It gives them a great boost of protein. I've been purchasing from this brand for years and have never had an issue with quality.

My cats love this cat treat. I only wish it came in a smaller quantity. I have two cats so this package lasts me 6 months or more. When I receive my order, I divide it up into smaller quantities in ziplock quart size bags to keep it fresh. If your cats haven't tried it, you should definitely get some!

Perfect for miso soup, or even a quick topper on salad or ramen. I've had several bags, always consistent quality. The dogs, and cats love it as well, perfect for treats, or enticement. We call it doggy crack....

Certainly my favorite shaved fish generally and shaved bonito particularly! :D

I don't have a cat, so I can't say I use this for my cat. But, I use this bonito flakes to make broth, top it off on my salad, make onigiri, tacoyaki making and you name it. So far I love the price, the size, and the quality, also the umami/flavor is excellent. We are already half way through the bag. We will re-order for sure!
