Tricolor Pearl Couscous, 16 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd find this on the pasta/grains aisle or in your pantry when grabbing a simple, colorful side for weeknight dinners or a casual dinner party; the toasted pearl shape gives a chewy, slightly nutty texture. The vibe is wholesome and convenient—a pantry-stable staple that brightens plates without much fuss. The short ingredient list (wheat flour plus vegetable powders and annatto) and industrial shaping/drying suggest a processed grain product rather than a highly engineered ultra-processed formulation.
