Love the Spice

I received Purgrains Thai Garlic Chili to test and give my honest opinion.
I love how cute and well detailed the packaging is. As the right amount of information and directions on how to prepare it. The colours make it attractive and fun to read.
I used the stove top opinion and it came out great. When I opened the pouch the smell was unpleasant. I noted the heat from the Chili but to be honest the garlic I couldn't detect. Overall a tasty product that i would indulge in again.

Spicy

J'ai bien aimé le principe de faire chauffer directement dans l'emballage donc rapide à préparer. J'ai adoré la texture. Vraiment trop piquant pour moi j'ai du mélanger à autre chose pour atténuer le piquant.

Excellent

A essayé un bon produit lorsque nous sommes pressés ! Et rapide à préparer et cela sent très bon. Je vous recommandé de l'essayer au moins une fois. Vous n'avez rien a perdre toute a gagner.☺️

Something different for a change

Full of flavour. I like garlic and spice, so it was up my alley. Not sure if I like the texture too much. I think it would be even better if I added chicken and put it in a wrap. I will buy it. #gotitfree

Easy to Prepare

I like how easy and convenient it was to prepare for my meals while still being healthy.

In terms of the taste, it has good texture from the different grains. The flavor was not overpowering and has a nice kick that would go well as an accompaniment side.

Healthy grain dish

I love that it's a healthy and convenient meal that you can throw together, but the taste was not great in my opinion. It has a nice kick, but lacked flavor and just tasted sour and off. The texture of the grains was really nice though, quite chewy and complex which I really liked.

I really wanted to love this product but, I was disappointed with it and would not recommend this flavor.

Quick and healthy meal

I love Thai garlic chili flavoured anything so I was excited to try this Purgrains side dish! I loved the texture of the different grains and it definitely keeps me full without feeling bloated. Its great to have on its own or with other side dishes and its super quick to heat up.

Flavour wise, I was a little bit disappointed, there was a bit of a sour taste to it which I wasn’t a fan of, the spice level was great though. Personally I feel it lacked a bit of sweetness and umami to balance it off.

I would recommend it if you’re looking for a healthier option and on a time crunch, but next time I would perhaps try a different flavour!

Tastes better than it looks

My first impression upon seeing this product was that it didn't look very appetizing. Upon trying it I was surprised that it tasted very good. The texture was good, it was like rice. Quinoa added a next texture and flavour. The garlic chili flavour was very mild but it was very delicious and I would buy this flavour again.

Not what I expected

I'm not sure what I'm in for when I buy healthy alternatives to rice but I wasn't disappointed. On it's own, it's okay but when you add other proteins and vegetables to it, it makes for a solid meal.

So so

First of all, I like the ingredients and the fact that this product is plant-based. But the smell is pretty funky, and I wish the product was more interesting in terms of texture. The whole thing has the same texture, and it would have been more interesting with some crunchiness and some smoothness added to the mix.
