What is in the case
The supplier states no weight for the 4OZ pack, so we quote it as a pack and publish no price per pound for it. That is a limit of the source, and the reason our figure stays comparable from one week to the next: a per-pound price built on an assumed case weight moves whenever the assumption does.

About Micro wasabi
Micro wasabi is a mustard-family seedling grown for pungency rather than a true wasabi rhizome, and the distinction matters on a menu: it delivers the nasal heat associated with wasabi, but it is not the plant and should not be described as such to a guest who asks. Used raw it is one of the sharpest things on a produce list, and the heat fades within seconds the way real wasabi does rather than sitting on the palate like chilli. Kitchens put it on raw fish, on beef and on oysters.
Buying notes
Heat is the whole purchase, and it is the first thing to go — a container that has been open for a few days looks fine and tastes of very little, so taste rather than inspect. Never apply it under heat: warmth destroys the pungency completely and the leaf becomes an expensive green.
