New Product Golden Aojiru Barley Grass Powder

The scoop

If you’ve been curious about jumping on the green powder trend, Costco’s got an interesting option that won’t break the bank. The Golden Aojiru Barley Grass Powder is showing up in warehouses, and it’s a solid entry point if you want to add more greens to your routine.

This is barley grass powder from Japan, packaged in individual stick packs for convenience. Each box contains 100 packets, making it super easy to toss one in your bag or keep them at your desk. The powder mixes into water, smoothies, or juice—though fair warning, it definitely has that earthy “grass” taste that comes with the territory.

The value here is pretty decent when you break it down per serving, especially compared to buying similar products at health food stores. The product is vegan, gluten-free, and non-GMO. That said, if you’re expecting it to taste like a tropical smoothie, adjust those expectations now – this tastes like what it is: concentrated grass.

Bottom Line: If you’re already a fan of green powders or want to experiment without spending a fortune on trendy brands, this is worth a try. Just remember: it’s health-focused, not taste-focused, so mixing it with fruit in a smoothie is probably your best bet for palatability.
