Organic Black Bean Spaghetti, 2 Pound

SO good!!! I wish it wasn't made in China though. Seems like an awfully long way to ship pasta. I'll keep buying this until I can find a more local brand. I like that the ingredients are very simple and that I can get my pasta fix while benefiting from the fiber and antioxidants of black beans.

We have recently tried to eat more whole foods, and not so much refined food. Not much meat or dairy after having read "The China Study". I realized that we need to have more protein from vegetables, so this was one thing that I started to use. I like beans, but can't say I'm crazy about them. But this black bean spaghetti is VERY good. It doesn't fall apart, and cooks up "al dente" without any special timing on my part. My son-in-law took one look at the spaghetti the first time I served it to them, you could see his hesitation, and said "what is this?" I told him, "try it, you may like it!" He tried it - and he liked it! He made my daughter buy some too. I have also served it to other guests, and they have also said that they like it. It's very tasty with a topping of julienned or spiralized veggies and lots of fresh tomatoes cut up into the cooked veggies, plus fresh herbs.The only negative thing about buying it in this size is that it comes just like that in the box, no inner lining, not in plastic. So I have to store that size box even though the contents are becoming less as I use it, and the spaghetti pieces are falling into and becoming entwined with each other. I guess that's better for the environment, and it's cheaper than buying it in individual packets.

does not taste good!!!

I am a type2 diabetic and this product is absolutely a lifesaver for pasta lovers. I cook a bunch at a time (product up to line 1 and the water up to the top line) using a fasta pasta for 11 minutes. When I want it, I put a LOT of butter on it and stick it in the microwave for 30 seconds. Done!It's fantastic because it is high protein, low carb, and when I add the butter, it tastes GREAT and I get the fat I need.My diet goal is 80% fat, 20% protein, 0% carbs. If this were no carb, it would be even better, but when you add the fat and protein, it keeps your blood sugar from spiking.A lot of people think butter is bad for you, but all the evidence says the opposite (very few people take the time to actually read the research studies)... its the carbs that we should be avoiding, not fat. . Great article in Time magazine about the War on Fat.Bottom line: I'm a huge fan of this product. One of my favorite meals that I never get tired of.

Taste is OK. I would not buy again because my husband is not a fan. I was looking for high protein for his diabetes.

Too expensive - Costco had it for a while for 1/2 the price but quit selling - love it though even at 20$

Its a pain to get the correct portion out of the box without making a huge mess. But I will continue buying, because once it's prepared, it's worth it.

Hot sauce helps the taste, but better for me than flour or veggie pasta, and I don't like whole wheat. Good protein to carbs ratio
