Husband loves it!
Finally got my husband to like cous cous! Great flavor and so easy to make. I like to add a few extra spices to match the meat we use

A good deal on Near East couscous
This is a winner on many levels. It is delicious, easy to prepare, takes about 10 minutes, and tastes good every time. As a side dish it goes with many different meals. Couscous is a healthy grain, with a lower glycemic index than rice or potatoes, and it is pretty hard to wreck during cooking. I did not eat pine nuts before trying this dish, but now I love them. Buying this 12-pack from amazon is much cheaper ($1.94 per box) than buying the boxes individually at our local market ($4.25 each)!As other reviewers point out, this is still an expensive way to eat couscous, because you pay for the little spice packet, the packaging, and probably the promotional budget of Near East as well. For inexpensive couscous you can buy it in bulk, measure it out, season it yourself, plus you can throw in any spare vegetables or fruit you have on hand. If you are like me, some of those spare veggies might otherwise be neglected until they grow fuzzy, and get thrown into the compost heap.When I am tired or rushed for time, this is just the ticket for a well balanced meal. Near East has better quality than the other couscous vendors I have tried, and the pine nut is my favorite of their flavors. It might become your favorite too.

Yummy!
If you have never tried couscous this would be a good one to start with. Delicious flavor and little nutty bits to add a nice chewy texture. We love most of the Near East couscous and rice mixes. This is one of our favorites and it's great value in the 12 pack. Super handy as there is always something for dinner when you're in a rush. Takes only 5 minutes on our induction cooktop. Goes well with fish, meat, vegetables, veggie burgers, veggie stew, chili.......

Just for emergencies!
Nothing special. Not a lot of taste. I only use them for emergencies! Had hoped for a better quality Couscous than this one.
