"It's the time of year when many facilities are being prepared for the quick approaching harvest. Customers are busy, and it can be hard for them to find the time to travel to our test facility.

Chickpeas are having more than a moment – they’re part of a nutritional movement.

In fact, 63 percent of U.S. consumers agree that chickpeas should play a bigger role in our daily diets.

But to win with chickpeas (or any ingredient), the sensory performance of your products needs to meet expectations. The good news: 70 percent of consumers agree that chickpeas “taste good.”

And, as a good source of protein and fiber, whole chickpeas align with two of the key benefits shoppers are actively seeking.

What are you waiting for? Let’s get innovating with the versatile chickpea.
