Honestly, I've always had a huge affinity for the nutritious legumes. While my childhood friends would pile up croutons and dressing on top of their salads, I remember stacking my plate high with a bed of greens and a massive tower of garbanzo beans. I'll occasionally snack on nothing but chickpeas with a little salt and pepper. In short, I'm a fan.
And recently, these dried chickpea-based treats have been popping up in different flavors from quite a few different brands. This is the second such offering that I've tried.
And unfortunately, I think this product might have scored higher in my book had I not tried a similar offering from Trader Joe's just a couple weeks prior.
On the plus side, there's still a good amount of fiber and protein here, and the resealable bag is uber-convenient, as always. Because of my love of the great garbanzo bean, I'd give another flavor a chance in the future.
But as for this particular chickpea snack, I can't go much higher than five out of 10 stars.
I buy ALL of the chickpea snacks i can find! Didn't try the target brand but i did try Biena brand which is sold at target, they were good sized and not *too hard* like the Good Bean brand can be. Delicious as is but also fantastic for some crunch on salads or ontop of soup too. They have a few flavors but just tried these since i'm not in target that often

This looks like the perfect thing to start my mornings with. Tired of the usual eggs and bacon everyday and may give this a try. Thanks
