Enlightened Bada Bean Bada Boom - Plant-Based Protein, Gluten Free, Vegan, Crunchy Roasted Broad (Fava) Bean Snacks, 100 Calories per Serving, Snacker Box, 1 Ounce (Pack of 21)

At first I wasn’t on board, but after the first bag these little morsels really satisfied my munchies which usually hit late at night. The taste is savory at first and then the sweetness comes through. At 100 calories a bag and very filling, I say, YES!

I went to the store looking for crunchy chickpeas. My store didn't have what I was looking for. I saw the brand name, Enlightened, and figure I'd try the broad beans. I had no idea what a broad bean was. They only had the sweet Sriracha one. I don't know what I was expecting, but it wasn't this mouthful of crunchy goodness. The flavor is amazing. I checked the label to make sure there wasn't MSG in it! . Right now my favorite are the Wasabi ones. Just enough heat to let you know that it has Wasabi in it. The sweet ones, cocoa dusted and cinnamon, unfortunately I can't eat because they have too much Stevia in them and that gives me a headache. Most of the Savory ones do not have Stevia in it. Just a warning for those out there who suffer from migraines, Stevia is a trigger for some people. Anyway, a 1oz serving is enough... They're dry, so you need to drink water while you eat them. It is really filling and satisfying. Totally beats potato chips. I love this product!!

Munch and crunch on a tasty, healthy, low calorie, low sodium snack. These have replaced my potato chips. Great accompaniment for that boring sandwich or salad. Great substitute for popcorn. Tried almost all the flavors and they are delicious! The cocoa cures a sweet tooth. Sweet Sriracha, Spicy Wasabi, and Buffalo Wing aren't too spicy- just enough. Garlic and Onion, Zesty Ranch, Sweet Onion and Mustard, and Mesquite BBQ flavors are balanced and not overpowering like in other snacks. I have purchased boxes for a friend who has to be on a low sugar/sodium diet and co-workers. They really liked them too. I hope these are never discontinued!

First time we’d ever tried this brand. Got them for a big summer road trip to national parks. Great for hiking. Love these instead of chips and to add flavor to soups or salads too. Our family of two kids and two adults liked the savory flavors the best. I didn’t care for the cocoa ones. Fun to try them all though!

Overall it`s a good, healthy-ish snack. However, some flavors are just really bad. I would not try the nacho cheese or the spicy wasabi flavors; they are pretty bad. Also, if you don`t like Stevia, you wouldn`t like any of the sweet flavors. The rest of them are good. My favs are sea salt and mesquite BBQ.

Satisfies my need to have a crunchie snack.

I had finished off a bag of snacks from The Good Bean and wanted to try something different. This had good reviews so I tried and OMG this does not taste like a healthy snack, in a good way! Good part is how it's full of protein and fiber. Bad part is I want to eat more than 1 bag! It's really that good. Try it!

Pros:- 5 stars for the savory flavors - they offer a nice non-sweet snack, when most of our packaged snacks are sweet (like Larabars).- The beans are a good source of protein and are not empty calories, like a lot of other salty snacks.- Not too salty.- Nice crunch (mostly).Cons:- The sweet flavors have a nasty artificial sweetener taste (from the stevia?) - they'd be better with just real sugar. And they're too sweet. We won't get the variety pack again for this reason.- Some pieces/beans are really hard - if someone's not expecting this they could hurt a tooth.
