Hi all.

This is really just a little information if anyone wants it. I have been very sceptical on the above mentioned, the calories to grams ratio seems ridicules! And they are damn filling. So I looked online to see if anyone can verify and nothing. So I found out for you! Please see response below regarding the nutritional information. :

All of our products are tested and certified by an independent food lab, as is our regulatory requirement. The nutritional information provided is accurate.

We grow a particular variety of white chickpea which is not commonly or commercially used due to its low energy values. Most chickpeas used for commercial purposes use one of the many varieties of yellow chickpea which in general contain higher levels of energy or calories.

Kind Regards

So there you have it! It appears the calories are real!
