Title: good, but _very_ little flavor
Review: howdy y'all,this is really pretty good stuff. i had never had couscous before and was rather pleased at how easy it was to make and how well it goes with other foods.however, the "garlic & basil" is almost undetectable. you can smell it when you add the seasoning packet to the water, but once the final product is ready, the flavor is nearly nonexistent. i took the next two boxes and used the flavor packets from TWO of them to flavor ONE box of couscous. that worked pretty well.one might as well buy this without any flavoring and add your own.this next point is a nit. the box is sealed rather tightly. i was expecting the contents to be in a packet like the various flours they sell. not the case. so, when you open the box be VERY careful or you will spill some of the couscous. this is not a problem once i became aware of the situation. the first box, tho, was a bit of a mess. [*grin*]rated a TWO since the flavor is _far_ less than expected.take care,lee
