Delicious variety - great sampler pack
I discovered crunchy chickpeas in a salad topper mix, saw them for sale a store and bought to make my own salad topper, decided to snack on them instead, and discovered how great they were on their own. Chickpeas have a satisfying crunch - more like a freeze dried crunch than the crunch of nuts - that's not hard enough to damage teeth and doesn't seem to stick in teeth either. They do seem to grow in your mouth- you chew on one, and as it breaks down, you feel like you have a mouthful of tasty, crunch, dry powder, so be sure to have a beverage handy. The best part is how well they work against hunger: I eat a small breakfast around 6am, snack on 26-30 grams of chickpeas around 10:30, and have no problem waiting for lunch at 1:30. They're a good replacement for many TV watching snacks, as if you eat them one at a time, they take a while to chew up and you have to drink something with them.I shared samples of all the flavors with my dentist's office, and Korean BBQ was the number one favorite - it has just the tiniest bit of heat to it. I love the Bombay flavor too, but I really love Indian flavors. The other two flavors are fine, but I will probably just add them to salads or add some of my own spices to them. Once you've had the good flavors, the plain ones are just too plain lol.

Great snack!
I love chick peas and I had bought a bag in the grocery store of this brand. They stopped carrying it so I took to Amazon and found this 4 pack with better pricing. These are perfect when you want a salty snack but are trying to watch what you eat. I love all the flavors. This is not a food you binge eat the whole bag—you have to chew them carefully and I am satisfied with about 1.5 servings and feel full for a long time after. Highly recommend.

Tough Kernels
These have good flavor and crunch. However, I agree with other reviewers that talked about kernels that ar like rocks. I will not buy these again because I fear chipping a tooth.

Little rocks, spiced up
Highly disappointed in this purchase. So many great reviews but product is hard (I'mafraid I'llbreak my teeth), yet turns mushy and flavorless after chewed. I'm trying to find better snacks, I did not succeed.Not eligible for return 😞

Delicious/texture off
Pros:*These are a great, high-protein snack*The flavor (Bombay Spice and Korean BBQ) is excellentCons:*Bombay Spice is a little too spicy for this wimpy consumer. (I can't take heat. These are what I might call medium. My eyes don't water, but my mouth burns for a while.)*I've had Korean BBQ from a grocery store while traveling, and they were good. Unfortunately, these seemed a little stale despite having plenty of time left before expiration. It's not a deal-breaker, but the Jabsens brand we've bought was phenomenal, texture-wise. These were okay.

Great Salad Topping
Although these are a little pricey, I love putting them on salads for added crunch and protein! The flavors are savory and not overpowering.

Great crunchy snack with protein
I found these originally in the grocery store but they had more flavors on Amazon. I will say when I got them they were much crunchier (almost too hard) than I had experienced with the ones in the grocery store. So they could have been stale. I probably won't buy 4 packs again.

They are not remotely crunchy...
As someone who enjoys exploring different snack options and have significant GF needs in our household , I was eager to try the Saffron Road Organic Crunchy Chickpea Snacks. Unfortunately, my experience with this product was quite disappointing.Flavor:The flavor is about the only thing these chickpeas had going for them. They it it mostly right, although I'd prefer them just a touch saltier.Texture:The texture of these chickpea snacks was another issue. Instead of the advertised crunchy consistency, many of the chickpeas were hard and difficult to chew. All pieces were excessively dry, making the overall eating experience quite unpleasant. It felt like munching on tiny, dusty, rocks rather than a satisfying crunchy snack.Freshness:The freshness of the product was questionable. Despite being well within the expiration date, the chickpeas tasted somewhat stale, as if they had been sitting on the shelf for far too long. This greatly impacted the overall quality and enjoyment of the snack.Packaging:The packaging itself was decent, providing necessary information about the product’s health benefits and certifications. However, good packaging cannot compensate for poor product quality. It was frustrating to be enticed by a well-presented product only to be let down by what was inside.Value for Money:Considering the price point, the value for money is poor. There are many other healthier snack options on the market that deliver better taste and quality for a similar price. The Saffron Road Organic Crunchy Chickpea Snacks failed to justify their cost, especially given the disappointing flavor and texture.Final Verdict:Overall, the Saffron Road Organic Crunchy Chickpea Snacks in Bombay flavor were a major disappointment. From the bland flavor to the hard texture and questionable freshness, it was a struggle to find anything positive about this snack. I would not recommend this product to anyone looking for a tasty and satisfying snack. Save your money and try a different brand.
