Loved the taste! and freshness! Yummy!

Fast shipping. Semita is very delicious and fresh. Yummy.

Nice package, thank you.

These are legit, made in El Salvador. Great flavor

If you have ever eaten the real deal, you will be severely disappointed. First, without toasting, this has a soft feel to it. Ok I can live with that. But it also had a very weird taste. Some people in other reviews described it as an “old” taste, but I think it’s more of an “industrial” kinda metallic weird aftertaste? It’s very hard to describe but one thing is for sure, it’s gross. I tried toasting it but it never really seemed to get all that crispy, just mainly on the edges. Toasted, or heated up really, the aftertaste is not as strong but it’s still there. It’s like buying bagged bagels off the grocery store shelf after eating bagels from good bagel shops. It kinda has the taste but not really.Tell your Salvadorian family to come for a visit and bring a few hundred boxes of the real deal. Make sure to send me a box for warning you about this. It’s normally a delicious treat, but this is 8 dollars of yuck.

Although there are several panaderias near me that sell pan dulces and pan Salvadoreno, they don't always have a delicious Semita like this one. It is what I remember as a child. Cost is also very comparable to local markets.

It was a bit pricey for what it was, even given that it was imported, however, it's delicious. My boyfriend is Salvadorian and this was a find childhood memory, which is why we purchased it. He said it was perfect.

It was fresh and great flavor
