The magazine does not have much text. Pictures of green fruit fill up the page and leave around 1/5 of the page for the text "Chickpea." The word chickpea looks like it has a painted on feature and is in white font against a black background. The color scheme of this magazine is black and white. The article includes many recipes, ways to eat healthier, ways to be waste free, and vegan alternatives. This pages take up most of the 92 pages. As for the advertisements, from what is shown, there were none. The types of photos on the cover includes; bananas, pears, starfruit, grape, and more. The table of contents has a black and white scribble of leaves an flowers. The articles have a black and white background, but makes the picture of the food described "pop out" by making it colorful. The magazine has around 7000 follower/ subscribers. They have not been nominated for any awards yet.
