Disgusting,
By C Dog (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Near East Broccoli & Cheese Couscous Mix, 5.4-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
I don't think anyone expects couscous in a box to be spectacular, but this stuff smelled and tasted awful. All of the other flavors we've tried from this brand (chicken, mushroom, Mediterranean curry) were actually pretty decent, so it was a surprise just how awful this one was. Avoid at all cost!

I love the Near East pine nut flavor couscous, but this one is absolutely disgusting. I made it today, took one bite, and wondered if I could possibly eat another. It was too salty and tasted fake. I will not purchase this flavor ever again.

This review is from: Near East Broccoli & Cheese Couscous Mix, 5.4-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 12) (Grocery)
It's always wonderful when you find a delicious new side dish to accompany your usual evening meals. I've had other flavors of couscous before, but I really enjoyed this broccoli and cheese flavor. Couscous by itself doesn't have much flavor so the additional spices in this flavor package really made a difference. If you've never had couscous before it's basically a very small piece of pasta that's very bland on its own. If you cook it up using beef or chicken broth, it can really perk up the taste and it makes an excellent side dish to accompany your vegetables. Of course if you just buy seasoned couscous like this broccoli and cheese box, you won't have to do anything special...just add hot water and the enclosed spices and you're in business right away! It only takes about one minute to cook up couscous so this stuff is really awesome!
