It's becoming increasingly difficult to find, so I plan on ordering more before it’s too late!”

I discovered that 'oyster flavored' means this is like the molasses of the oyster world—just pure extract, no meat. It’s so delicious! Thank you, Kikkoman, for providing the best option out there! It's so much better than soy sauce with nothing added at all."
