Tastes like pasta
As expected, it tastes like pasta. Gold Harbor is still my favorite brand for taste and texture but since they don’t make their spaghetti anymore, this is very good too.

Love this pasta
The best way to prepare this pasta, especially for those having issues with consistency, is by soaking them in water for 20-30 min. I usually put it in a small flat container and soak for several hrs in the refrigerator so it's ready when I want to use it. As long as you cover them in enough water, it'll last for several days. Then I drain the pasta & add a sauce or toppings (like marinated mushrooms). An almond butter or sun-dried tomato sauce compliments this well, but there's many options. You can either leave the container out to warm up before draining or apply very low heat. The pasta has already been lightly dehydrated, so it doesn't need to be re-cooked.

"May contain traces of soy" which means it probably does. Product of China, hopefully it is soy free as the label says. Soy is not a main ingredient, when you see "may contain soy" and "shared equipment" that can be troublesome. This was the only black bean noodle brand that wasn't made mixed with soy beans as a main ingredient.Edit: tried them and they do taste good. The nutritional profile is also amazing.

I like the idea of this, but...
It's not a bad product...it's just not super great. The taste is bland (of course) but in a strange way. (it does not taste bad though...just bland). I have found one needs to add a super flavorful sauce or use something that really coats the noodles bc nothing seems to stick to it. Maybe if it was a different shape, sauces would stick to it better. I like that it has NO flour but I have to admit I like the Trader Joe's version of black bean pasta better (but TJs brand does have flour mixed in it, which is not good for people with gluten intolerances or celiac).

Fantastic
So someone recommended these so I bought them without reading reviews. I see some people saying they are terrible. Either they got a bad batch or just simply expected something else. I can understand these may not be for everyone, but for someone that has quit pasta for a long long time, these this product has more than impressed me. The texture is very close to actual pasta noodles, the taste isn't strong at all. If you put some butter or Alfredo sauce on these you are barely going to know it isn't real pasta. I think I actually like these better than actual pasta, especially knowing I'm eating something healthy full of fiber.

Experiment A Little
The first time I used these I thought the taste was too much 'cardboard'. After thinking it over I decided there may not have been enough fat in the light sauce I made. Also I decided that visually I needed to feature the color. You really can't ignore that they are black! So I did a Stroganoff with homemade Greek Yogurt, mushrooms, and caramelized red onions. Utterly first class, I would not hesitate to serve this for a fine company meal. I also did a seafood medley, also great.

Black bean fettuccine was a pleasant surprise!
Based on reviews, I purchased a 6pack of the black bean fettuccini. I immediately cooked it and added oil, garlic and grated cheese. I am sold and will order this again. My doctor has me eating a limited carb and limited healthy fat and protein diet and this is perfect for me. I was pleasantly surprised and the amount you get with 2 oz serving. Best of all they cook in 4 minutes and hubby likes them too.

Rubbery
This product was described by the seller as "delicious and satisfying" but in reality, after following the cooking directions precisely, the product was extremely rubbery (like eating rubber bands). I tried even cooking it a second time for longer, but nothing helped. I'm disappointed, as I have tried other brands of black bean pasta that were tasty. I guess not all black bean pasta is the same.

Great Product
I love this product. You have to know you will not get that "pasta" flavour, it really doesn't have much of a taste (in a good way). You're sauce will be the highlight. I'm on a low carb high protein diet, so I love that I get the fiber and the protein. Also very filling. A little goes a long way.
