Fresh would be nice!!
I hope the next pack is fresh!! Rotting basil is not good!! The advantage that people going into the shops have, is that they can choose. With online ordering, it seems that the fresh produce is carefully selected from all the stuff that the shop-goers didn't want :(
Terrible
Do not buy unless you are using immediately.

Awful - either black and wilted or unusable slimy mess, even if opened several days before the use by date. I've tried it a few times and always ended up throwing away the whole bag

Ive not had any really bad experience with this. The main problem is finding the longest date in store or hoping the picker had the same idea for your delivery. I use first time quickly after purchase. After that I run the stalks under cold tap, shake off most and return to pack which I clip and leave in a cool, bright place. If the pack gets clammy a day or so later I pop in a small piece of kitchen towel. Works for me and keeps the taste sweet and fresh.

Awful. Ordered several times and every time leaves are either already wilted and blackened or do so after only a day or two.

The bits that haven't turned black are OK, if you have a recipe that requires 30g basil then you'd better buy 2 packs!
