Flagged inconsistencies on the brand's own page
- Green Foods appears to sell two separately listed products both described as 'Ceremonial Grade' Matcha Green Tea (this one at greenfoods.com/products/matcha-green-tea, priced $19.99 for 5.5oz, and a second one at greenfoods.com/products/100-organic-pure-matcha-green-tea, priced $30.00/$25.50 with no size disclosed and marked Sold Out). Both use nearly identical marketing copy (bright green color, velvety texture, 800-year cultivation tradition, same certifications and health claims), raising the question of whether these are the same product listed twice at different times/prices, a size variant, or genuinely distinct SKUs. The site does not clarify the relationship between the two listings.
