I have had some dry chickpeas for quite some time (~6-12 months) in my pantry and now I'm looking to cook them.
Most of them have some orange spots, which I'm not sure are normal (See picture below). Are they safe to eat?

I ended up cooking the chickpeas and eating them, without any discernible stomach problems
