The polenta was flavorful but not absolutely fresh when I received it. Surely there's a way to pack it in other than its (uninsulated) paper bag to ensure maximum freshness while shipping, etc.

nice that it's ancient grain
I appreciate that it's an ancient grain. However, I cooked it for an hour and a half, and it was still kind of grainy in texture. Not what I expected from polenta. I would use it in other cornmeal recipes.
