About COUSCOUS
Simply Balanced Couscous is made from conventional (non-organic) durum wheat semolina, sold under Target's Simply Balanced line — a brand that emphasized natural and minimally processed foods during its active years before being largely absorbed into Good & Gather. As a single-ingredient product, it offers the same culinary versatility as any standard couscous: rapid cooking in hot water or broth, compatibility with both savory and sweet applications, and a neutral base that absorbs flavors from dressings, herbs, and spices. Durum wheat semolina provides a complete starchy base with approximately 12.7 g protein per 100 grams, reflecting the higher gluten content of durum wheat versus common wheat. At 364 calories per 100 grams (55 g serving), with 72.7 g carbohydrates, 0.9 g fat, and 3.6 g fiber, this is a relatively lean grain with moderate fiber. The protein value is comparable to Good & Gather's organic version. Allergens include wheat (gluten). Not suitable for gluten-free or celiac diets. Dairy-free, egg-free, and nut-free. The conventional versus organic distinction is the primary differentiation from the Good & Gather sibling.
