Can't find dried chickpeas anywhere. I wanted to++
try Pandora's falafel recipe, but so far, no dice. Is there maybe a brand name in the US I could seek for these?

They're sold under a number of names - garbanzo, ceci, chana, sanagalu, Gonzo Bean and Bengal gram. If you can't find them locally, try Amazon. |

Canned chickpeas are readily available in all grocery stores around here... in the canned foods section, next to kidney beans and black beans. Most stores have several different brands;Goya, Primo, Unico. Dried chick peas are usually in the same section as other dried legumes. |

Don't bother with Safeway or Whole Foods, you'll want a smaller operation. The grocery I know I can buy them at is independent. If you have a large E. Indian community, you will probably find cried chick peas at the green grocer's they shop at (all the ones I frequent have bulk bins that include several types of beans). -- Food is an important part of a balanced diet. |

OTOH, I rarely do not see them at yer local health food store. Any health food store with bulk bins carries them. They're almost a required food for the vegan crowd. Add other weirdo groups like hippies, hari-krishnas, communal crazies, eastern religious types, and other assorted fringe food freaks and yer bound to find dried chick peas (garbonzos). We must have five health food stores in a combined 2-town population of less than 10K. I think one store doesn't carry chick peas. nb |

Not gonna swear that they do have them but they have a wide variety of dried beans. I have some. Can't remember where I bought them. I have seen them online though. Just got some roasted ones online at Nuts.com. |

I had to look at several stores. Can't remember where I found mine though. |

I can picture grocery stores placing things based on perceived ethnic preferences. I'd bet you can find dried (and canned) garbanzo beans (and black beans) in the Hispanic section next to the canned pozole and menudo. Also next to the Taco Bell "dinner kits". But you shouldn't have to hunt to find dried beans. The smart thing would be to put them in both places. "International" (heh) foods or in the "regular" section where they have all the other dried beans. IMHO, this is usually also near the bags of rice and dried lentils. Jill |
