Dry Chickpeas Garbanzo Beans - 1lb - Good & Gather™

good price, amazing value. easy to rehydrate in water or to set at a low heat in a slow cooker.

Could go on and on with each of the Good and Gather lineup of beans, legumes, grains etc., but I’m not. Suffice to say they are easy to like and glad they are being offered. 4.1 Stars.

Ordered 2 bags recently (been buying them on repeat for about 4 yrs). They lookee beat up and had very close exp dates. I cook dried beans on the regular but these new bags dont cook properly. no matter how long I soak them, or let them cook they never get soft. They end of kind of crumbly. I tried to salvage some by making hummus and no matter how much I mixed it, it felt grainy. Won't be repurchasing.

THERE WERE BUGS!!! Crazy.. did a pick up and got home and found bugs in it

These garbanzo beans were good.

Weevils. Put them in a Ziploc as soon as I bought them and placed in my pantry. Some time later, i was organizing and discovered bugs? Weevils? All over in the bag

After buying these today, I went to soak them in water before bed, and unfortunately they had multiple little black bugs in them 😫 which I’m assuming is weevils? I instantly threw them away. This is my first time buying this brand of dried beans. Maybe just a bad batch? But definitely take a good look over, before purchasing.

Can't beat the price anywhere else and I've had no issues with the quality:)

Love the quality! The bag was not broken and the beans cooked well.

These garbanzos are good--tasty and with a nice texture. When I first bought these, I noticed that they were smaller than the other garbanzos I'd been buying. And they generally are not uniform in size. Even after swelling during over-night soak in refrigerator, the sizes are variable. However, the variable size does not affect the final product. The smallest and the largest have good texture. None becomes soft nor do any become overdone.

I like cooking dry beans since I control the sodium and it’s economical. However there is something funky about these chickpeas. They never turn out like others I have made and there are some that look like they’ve gone off (dark and shrunken).

I've always had good results with Target-brand foods; over the years, I've bought cooking oils, beans, rice, pasta, nuts, raisins, and frozen veg. For most products, I've detected no difference between name-brand products and Target-brand or my local supermarket own-brand. (Nuts are the one exception -- Blue Diamond is better than the no-names, as are Planter's cocktail peanuts.) ............................................ Yes, the chickpeas are small, but I don't think that's an indication of lesser quality, and size absolutely doesn't matter when when one is serving or eating chickpeas. ............................................ Target, pls consider offering organic beans and legumes; my local organic market sells organic chickpeas for $2.49/lb, and if you can match that, you'll appeal to your budget-conscious shoppers as well as the increasing number of consumers who want non-GMO and/or organic food. Thanks.

The need to be soaked overnight for at least 10 hours if not 12. I got 4 bags and not 1 bad bean in any. I made a delicious soup with carrots celery onion and garlic with the garbanzo beans and it was delicious! Throw in some fresh dill and fresh lemon juice and it’s out of this world!

These are the smallest beans I have ever scene. Avoid buying them unless in person and you are okay with the tiny beans.

These are better quality than the grocery store brand (Kroger). I usually sort out very little junk. Making dry chickpeas is a process but so much cheaper and tastier than canned! I add bay leaves and garlic when I cook em. So good.

Delicious garbanzo beans. The price is good, too. I highly recommend it.

My family has at least one meal with garbanzos every week. And, yes, just soaking overnight - at least 10 hours- gets them ready for cooking. In three bags cooked so far I’ve found just one bean with a brown spot. It’s still a very good value, even if I have to toss a few beans. The quality is great so far, and I hope it does not deteriorate, as I try to transition my family to more plant-based protein meals. Thanks Target!

So glad Target carries this product. Good quality beans.

Cheaper than the precooked canned version but just as tasty. I soak them overnight before cooking them.

Really good quality especially for the price.
