Tricolor Pearl Couscous, 16 OZ
What You Should Know
Find this bag in the pasta/grains aisle as an easy pantry staple for weeknight sides, warm salads, or a colorful base for grain bowls. It delivers a chewy, slightly toasty pearl texture and a wholesome, practical vibe with a playful tricolor look. The short ingredient list of refined wheat flour plus dried spinach and tomato powders and annatto shows it has been industrially shaped and dried but contains few additives, so it reads as processed rather than ultra‑processed.
