News:

There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.

Does anyone else hate the taste of chickpea flour? IMO, it tastes beany and grassy and bitter.

Yep, I don't like it at all. Which is funny, because I love chickpeas and most chickpea products.

Chickpeas - aside from hummus - are inedible, and people who like them are bad.

It can definitely have that flavor. I like it for its textural and thickening properties but that flavor is why I always mixed it with some other kind of flour when I had to care about gluten free cooking. And it's pretty much only good for savory applications, it definitely overwhelms anything sweet.

:lulz: I can't argue with that.
