Paying for convenience? Raw turmeric, or even turmeric tea, is IMO a rather acquired taste. I like it in spice mixes but on its own, or even if I spice food with it but lean too hard into the turmeric, it tastes like dirt to me. I dunno what I'd do if I wanted to take in quite a bit of turmeric daily but not taste it, aside from buying capsules like that. (which I don't do, to be clear)
- lotsofpulp 4y agoThat is a good point, although I would not mind mixing it in water and chugging it at that price premium. They sell over priced powder too: https://www.costco.com/feel-good-usda-organic-turmeric-powder%2c-16-ounces.product.100368671.html https://www.costco.com/feel-good-usda-organic-turmeric-powde...
- yamtaddle 4y agoHaha, yikes on the overpriced powder. Yeah if it were me I'd just suffer through a few seconds of a flavor I don't love, if I really wanted to take turmeric as a supplement, given the extreme cost difference. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if the sold-as-spice version is fresher and higher-quality. But I can see why some folks might want the capsule.
