Our pasta is made from over 90% chickpeas. For the rest of our pasta, we use non-GMO tapioca, pea protein, and xanthan gum, which help bind the chickpea flour together as a vegan egg replacement of sorts. Check out our nutrition label for more info!

Xanthan gum is produced by the fermentation of a sugar (glucose)—much like the way yogurt is made. In our case, it's a non-GMO ingredient that adds volume; it’s in many of your favorite sauces, for instance. Our xanthan gum is derived from corn. There are no corn proteins in xanthan gum, and the ingredient itself is a very small percentage of the product. That said, if you have an allergy to corn, we advise checking with your doctor before eating Banza.

The serving sizes reflect uncooked pasta. When you cook Banza, it almost doubles in size and weight, taking on the water it’s boiled in. That said, the nutritional content still reflects that of the dry pasta you measured before cooking. 

Banza is made from over 90% chickpeas. The sugar in Banza is naturally occurring in the chickpeas - there is no added sugar.

There are 529.53 mg potassium (15% DV) per 2 oz serving, and 222.87 mg phosphorus (22% DV) per 2 oz serving.

Yes, all Banza products are gluten-free. All of our ingredients are naturally gluten-free, and our pastas are certified by either GFCO or GFCP.

Yes, our pasta is Project Verified non-GMO.

No. While our pasta is certified non-GMO, we are not currently pursuing organic certification. Our top priority is investing in nutritious, premium ingredients, while keeping our products accessible. We work closely with our suppliers to ensure that their standards are in line with our brand values.

Our manufacturing process and all product produced on our equipment are free from all major food allergens, as defined by FALCPA. This includes, but is not limited to, peanuts, wheat, gluten, soybean, tree nuts, sesame, fish, crustacean shellfish, milk, eggs, celery, mustard, and food coloring.

Yes, Banza pasta is certified Kosher by the Orthodox Union. Search Banza here to see our certifications for each shape. Note: Our mac and cheese products are not Kosher.

All Banza products are made in the United States.

Everyone likes their pasta a bit different, and has a different cooking setup. So, we recommend trying a noodle around the minimum time stated on the box, and then continuing to cook until your taste buds are happy. Like pasta, Banza can have that al dente bite, or a softer feel if cooked longer.

A boiling pot of Banza may foam up a bit more than traditional pasta. This same foam occurs when boiling chickpeas themselves (Banza is made from over 90% chickpeas!). Some tips to decrease the foam: fill your pot with more water, turn the burner down to a lower heat, add a splash of oil to the water, and/or scrape some foam off the top.
