Disappointing product. NOT a salt alternative. I was led to the product by a rather convincing program showing people wading through seaweed. I tried a small package. It was virtually tasteless. Tried... See more

I don't buy s owners didn't return investment to us shareholders

I don't buy this product as I invested in it.In about 2015 on crowdcube
me and the other investors ended up with nothing being returned after profits we're promised I lost my investment
I invested as it seemed an ethical company.However , they sold it off and returned no profits even During the trading time
Dumped 100s impersonally with a global email and no responses other than threat of libel!!

Mara is a must have in my book

Mara is a must have in my book. I have been using them since the beginning. I was looking for extra nutrition & a source of iodine. I eat my seaweed every day. It's wonderful in soups, stews, fish, eggs even sandwiches. Full of vitamin B's, iron, iodine. Skin,hair,nails benifits. More energy. My friend uses Mara now too. Food from the sea.

I love Mara Seaweed

I love Mara Seaweed. I put Shony on everything and Furikake is so delicious, particularly on Asian food!

Very disappointed

Very disappointed, saw product on tv and it was fantastically marketed. But described as an alternative to salt.
Bought some from local supermarket, found it completely tasteless as an adative and barely any taste.
Feel totally robbed of £2.50 with my 20g of Mara shony seaweed.

Love my Shony seaweed

I love my shony seaweed, was trying to increase the iodine in my diet for health reasons but was unsure whether I could handle the taste of seaweed in my food, but this is fantastic, have a teaspoon in my smoothy or stew and it just adds a really great depth of flavour, really happy I found Mara Seaweed.

Support a local enterprise…

We wanted to support a local enterprise and find some interesting new foods to give as Christmas presents, we found that in Mara Seaweed! Can't wait to sprinkle some onto the turkey! Shop Local!

new trier

I heard about Mara seaweed and decided to buy some
I found the first time I use it it was strong in taste but after a few tries in different dishes I got it right
It’s a winner using right
