    I'd say bad as peas are mostly sugar.

    I am sure a regular chick would be better.

    Yes, chickpea = garbanzo. They are fine - actually one of the best carb sources available. Making them yourself is best, although a bit tedious. Canned is fine, but if you are precontest watch the sodium content, and in any case make sure its just chickpeas and water/brine. Some brands add crap like sugars and preservatives.
