Product Snapshot: The chocolate covered chickpea line is made from Biena's signature Sea Salt Chickpeas dipped into delectable chocolate and caramel, creating a unique, healthy and indulgent snack. There are three flavors available in the chocolate covered chickpea line including milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and salted caramel. Each chocolate- or caramel-covered serving offers 4 grams of protein and 4-5 grams of fiber. This fulfills hunger in fewer bites and helps sustain appetite between meals. And unlike most decadently sweet snacks, Biena’s chickpeas have only 4-5 grams of sugar per serving.

The line is made in the United States with high-quality Fair Trade ingredients, so consumers can feel great about what they are eating. This line of Biena Chickpeas are gluten-free, vegan, and non-GMO verified. They are available at Whole Foods Markets, Sprouts Farmers Markets, Target, Stop and Shop, Shaws and New Seasons as well as online at Amazon.com and SnackAisle.com.
