Threw away 3rd box
These are not good. First box my husband cooked like a black bean spaghetti we've gotten before and it turned into a pot of black goo. I told him he didn't follow the directions so I re-tried. They maintained shape but the texture is not pleasant, kind of gummy or thick to chew. Threw away the 3rd box. We'll just stick to eating regular black beans.

Made of only black beans?
They look great and keep their shape well despite lacking a binding ingredient (i.e. Gluten or egg) but... They have a very strong and strange after taste. Having bought black bean noodles (that lack the taste) from other companies that advertise the "only black beans! That's it!" ideal, I wonder either where these particular beans came from, or if the process used for making the pasta (washing soap? Something that is used but constitutes less than 1% of serving size?) adds the peculiar flavor.Be prepared to add a very strongly flavored sauce to cover it, though my Bolognese wasn't strong enough.

I tried it by itself and it does have an interesting flavor and texture. Maybe a little to interesting for me. I did a chicken bake and used this for the pasta part and it was wonderful. I would say for a first timer maybe use it in a pasta bake until you get used to working with it. The cooking directions on box made mine come out to soggy. So you need to tweak it until it comes out how you like it.

Good stuff
It's not cheap pasta, but for those of use avoiding grains, it fits the bill. Nice texture and taste. It was cheaper here than at my local health food store, so I stocked up.

Great product, tiny box.
This is an excellent gluten free product. It tastes great. The only reason I knocked off one star is because the box is not the same size as the boxes sold in stores like Whole Foods. This box is the size of a postage stamp, barely one serving. So I thought I was getting a great deal, but apparently not.

Good Alternative to Grain-based Pasta
Honestly, anyone who could eat pasta made from wheat or even rice or corn would prefer to do that. But this is quite a good alternative and has become a mainstay for me.

Great SCD-friendly treat
Great size portion, quality, and taste. I prefer the black bean penne over their red lentil penne as it seems less heavy. These are a must-have for those with IBS or following the specific carb diet (SCD). Enjoy with pesto sauce or Applegate natural hot dogs.

Not just black bean.
The product that came is different than the box advertised on amazon. It is a pea blend.My son loves this product and it’s delicious.

Misleading
They should be ashamed using the pictures from the black bean pasta with the wrong nutritional label.

Much more grainier and rougher than I expected. Also boiling it makes them stick together.

I did not like the texture
I did not like the texture. I’ve had another brand of black bean pasta that had a good texture. This pasta just turns to mush in your mouth

Taste and Texture is not good
I usually like Black Bean pasta, this I do not. The texture is strange and the taste is not good. I followed the directions on the box to a tea and it turned out to be awful.

Good product but lacking customer service
This item was shared with my by a member of my gym. He mentioned a promotion so I decided to give it a try. As soon as received our shipment we made a meal using this pasta.
