Yuck!
The taste and texture of this was horrendous. I’d rather avoid pasta type things completely, than to eat this again.

Disappointing Quality – Turns to Mush When Cooked
I had high hopes for this chickpea pasta, but it turned out to be a big disappointment. Despite following the cooking instructions exactly, the pasta completely fell apart and turned into mush. The texture was unappealing, and it didn’t hold its shape or firmness at all. I’ve tried other chickpea pastas before that were much better, so I was really surprised by the poor quality of this one. Unfortunately, it made the meal unpleasant and not worth the money. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Pasta shaped, but not textured
This was interesting to try due to it's higher protein content, but I wouldn't buy it again as it's not very nice tasting, & expensive. The texture is not at all like pasta, & it's unpleasant cold in salad. I expected it to be more filling. Be aware that as a legume based protein, anyone on a vegan diet still needs to eat some form of grain to balance amino acid.

No thanks
Not for me. Lentil pasta much tastier. Very dry and stodgy, you need loads of sauce.

Unpleasant texture
It's not a nice texture at all. It cooks very quickly indeed but I kept a close eye on it so it didn't overcook. It has a gritty feel to it and the taste isn't great, I covered it in parmesan to be able to eat it but left half of it. So I decided to try it in a cold pasta salad and mix it in with regular penne. But it's worse cold, it crumbles when trying to pick it up it just falls apart.

Hi in carbs and ridiculously expensive
With 52g of carbs per 100g (exactly the same as "normal pasta" a delivery charge almost equal to the value of the goods, and a total price about 15 X what supermarket pasta costs, I think we can all agree this one is a clear "avoid"
