Banza reviews and discussion

Great chickpea pasta!!

Love the chickpea pasta. Tastes better than most pasta alternatives

My FAV pasta is Banza chickpea pasta. Perfect texture and tastes like regular pasta.

Love the pasta. I was trying out GF for a while and Banza pasta made it work. While it was good warm - my favorite was to cool the pasta and turn it into a pasta salad. All the joy of my favorite salad with extra protein! Win-win.

I love the Banza pasta, but have not seen the pizza yet! Can't wait to try...

Tried pasta from Banza and it surprised me how close in texture it was to regular pasta. As an athlete, I try and find ways to increase protein intake and Banza is a great way.

Not a huge fan of the taste. I think there are a lot of other options that taste closer to pasta, but this definitely is a good healthier option.

I've tried the pasta, and it's impressive how close to real pasta the taste is. You would never guess that it's """healthy"""

Great line extension outside pasta.

I would really recommend the pastas for those who are gluten free! I personally am not but prefer eating Banza pasta than regular brands. The chickpea flavor adds a little bit more grit/heartiness to your pasta dish.

I really wanted to love Banza, but it's one of those substitutes where you can pretty evidently tell it's not the real thing. If you really love chickpeas then go for it! But if you're hoping it will taste like the real thing, I would pass.

I absolutely LOVE Banza! I like their wide variety of productsl; their chickpea pizza crust (pictured) is my favorite. Their protein pasta is also great for those on diets.

I think Banza is just fine and honestly don't buy it anymore. It upsets my stomach, tastes pretty processed, and if you cook it even one millisecond too long you're no longer going to be eating pasta instead just slightly chewy chickpea mush. I much prefer Jovial (they have space shaped noodles probably made for kids that I really love).

I love the idea of having a healthier pasta, however, I find this pasta to be a little challenging to cook without it going gummy in texture. I find that you have to undercook it quiet a bit or else it will get mushy easily. Perhaps I’m using it incorrectly but this has been my experience. I would try it again and see if I can get better results though as the taste and health benefits are good.

I was always a fan of Banza pasta but just tried their new pizza and I'm obsessed! Tastes so good and the protein from the chickpeas makes me feel so energized!

banza pasta is INCREDIBLE, would always cook with it but it is a bit of a steep price point

I've only had their plant-based mac n' cheese and a taste of the dairy mac n' cheese and I'm obsessed! By far the best non-dairy cheesy pasta I've ever eaten out of a box. You can't even tell that the noodles are GF. And all that protein? Yes please!

There's nothing not to like - it's a high protein pasta equivalent. Also like that it comes in a cardboard box and the inner does not contain plastic packaging.

The taste is pretty decent but the pasta is filled with xanthan gum, which is not great for you. If it did not include that one ingredient, I would give it a 10/10.

Is there a Banza product I don't love?! No! Mac and cheese, noodles, pizza, pizza crust... all amazing. Does it replace regular pasta? Also no, but sometimes I don't want regular noodles and I want the nuttier flavor of Banza. I love the protein and fiber count too!
