## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Overpriced, but makes delieious soup.
*by M***W on April 30, 2020*

I have found red lentils in 2 local markets in the bulk section for $2.99/lb. Nothing special about these lentils except that I was able to get them delivered. Price was more than 3 times elsewhere. Good thing is that I made delirious soup. Will not buy it again here.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These lentils are an excellent product.
*by O***R on April 30, 2020*

I just made a recipe for red lentil soup (using Ziyad Red Lentils) and it was terrific, delicious and satisfying. I am planning on purchasing more of these lentils for use in additional recipes. They are a wonderful addition to my pantry.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Yummy lentils
*by M***A on April 16, 2020*

These are really good - I'm not sure if I would've found or tried this brand if they weren't the only red lentils in stock, but I'm very happy they were available and satisfied my craving. No stones and great texture and flavor
