It's great for certain recipes. Really good quality. However, the grains are big - because it's not a traditional couscous, it's called Ptitim. Marketing is misleading.

Perfect for weeknight dinners. Seems like negative reviews made just to bash an Israeli product, such a shame.

Fantastic product! We buy two boxes at a time, both my kids love it. Cooks up so fast, delicious with salt/pepper and fresh lemon. Definitely cook it with veggie or chicken broth, adds depth of flavor. Added touch would be some Romano or Parmesan cheese.
Delicious as always

This couscous is delicious. I like to make it with chicken broth and a little Parmesan cheese and parsley. It’s also great to have on hand for one pan meals on school nights. I was wondering why all the bad reviews because this product has always been consistently good for several years. Looking at the reviews and dates, a product with the word “Israeli” in its name took a sudden turn after October 2023 without verification from any of the reviews that the project was actually even purchased.
Delicious couscous!!

I would give this a 0 star, if I could! This is not Couscous! Nothing near the real stuff! Terrible taste and is soggy and sticky. I will not be buying this again.

Worst couscous I have ever had. This stuff is disgusting. The texture and taste is absolutely awful. I highly recommend buying a different kind elsewhere. The middle eastern markets have great options.
Absolutely disgusting!!!

Wish I could give it zero stars! Tastes disgusting…has nothing to do with couscous. Tastes like soggy wet balls with no flavor! Absolutely horrid!!! Will never buy again. My recommendation is to stay far from this fake, tasteless crud!

Tastes terrible. Anyone wanting to eat actual couscous should go to the “middle eastern” aisle of their grocery store and buy the Ziyad brand or a different brand from this. Don’t waste your money.
