Title: Isn't so premium
Review: What was sent to me was the 5-minute black pearls, which consist of tapioca starch, other starches, guar gum, methylcellulose (a filler), DHA (a preservative), SDA (a firming agent), flavoring, coloring, agar, and vitamin C. This is not the premium black pearls which consists of just tapioca starch, caramel color, and a potassium sorbate (preservative). So there is less filler in the premium and more tapioca. Also, this affects the texture and taste when cooked. With the premium, it is chewy but not rubbery, like the 5-minute boba is. I also find the 5-minute has a more acidic aftertaste than the premium. On the plus side for the 5-minute, it is more firm in the packaging and not likely to be easily crushed like the the premium, which requires special care when storing (which is why I gave this 2 stars). I published a picture to show what I received. From past reviewers, it doesn't appear they received this so I'm not sure why I got what I did.
