How cool is this? In order to keep up with America’s love
affair with hummus, former tobacco fields in the state of Virginia are being
plowed under to make way for chickpea farming.

If you find fresh chickpeas, you can eat them as-is, like sunflower or pumpkin seeds. Just peel and eat.
Good to know!
I love it! Chick peas, one of my favorite foods, yet I've not eaten a fresh one. Perhaps now we'll see more of them at the markets.
Gina, Check your local farmer's market for fresh chickpeas. I found some at Maria's Produce on Hypoluxo Rd. east of Military Trail, but call first to see when they're available.
