Chickpea Cavatappi Pasta, 8 OZ
What You Should Know
Found in the pasta aisle or the gluten-free/alternative section, Banza Chickpea Cavatappi is the knock-you-down comfort of curly pasta with a health-focused twist — the sort of box you grab for weeknight dinners, meal-prep, or a cozy pasta night. It reads wholesome and modern, but the inclusion of isolated pea protein, tapioca starch and xanthan gum hints that its chew and stability are industrially engineered, signaling characteristics of an ultraprocessed product.
