DaVinciSignature, Elbow Macaroni, 16 Ounce Resealable Bags (Pack of 12)

I've bought other brands of dried pasta over the years and admit I was kinda indifferent to name brands over cheap store brands. But finding this particular pasta shape in my area in stores was difficult! Being on sale didn't hurt this brand in getting my attention to try them out. But the flavor and texture really sold me to check out the rest of their pasta offerings! I'm a happy pasta hound with a prepper stash of wagon wheels on her shelves! Thank you for a great product! P.S. these wagon wheels are larger than my mini wheels I managed to buy locally... Double thrilled!

Fast cooking time, great tasting pasta. Holds your sauce in place beween the spokes, for a better taste experience. Hard to find in most groceries.

This pasta is what I've been looking for. Remembered from my childhood pasta that held it's shape even if overcooked but nothing I found in the stores came close to it. What comes out of the store theses days when overcooked will turn mushy and fall apart into pieces. Even fully cooked this macaroni stayed true to it's shape and didn't turn mushy. This macaroni also tastes great. My Mac & Cheese dishes will be forever improved in presentation, quality and taste. TIP: This macaroni does produce a lot of starch so I'd caution to rinse several times before adding to the final pot for cooking. Can't say enough about this macaroni. I love it.

I never realized there could be such a difference in the flavor, cooking time and texture of noodles. I love to cook with these, I have used them in green salads and soups and even pasta salads. I place a little virgin olive oil and mix this while placing them in covered containers in the fridge... It seems when I have them cooked and waiting for me, I will add them to just about anything. I even mixed them in an omelet along with other veggies and it is healthy and helps fill you up without using toast and butter. Make the omelet and add a few slices of fresh tomatoes on your plate and it will take care of any cravings you have. I love any noodle dishes and could even eat them on a sandwich, so I have to give them a five star review.

I actually wanted a larger noodle, and I know that Creamettes brand makes a larger elbow noodle. I looked at the picture of DaVinci on the Amazon site and I believe I read blunt cut...and for some reason I thought that this would mean a broader noodle. And I like DaVinci brand. Well, the noodle was average size...but the taste was very good. I've tried more famous elbow noodles that you'll find in most grocery stores...but DaVinci is worth the money; big difference in taste. Thank you.

This is really good stuff, but much thicker and larger than I was expecting. After cooking it was hard to tell from the regular size shells. And it was way too thick for salad, which is what I really wanted it for. It is really good quality, but when they say small, you have to understand that that is a relative term.

This Macaroni is very good. I like macaroni & tomatoes. This makes a yummy macaroni & tomatoes. Shake a little shredded cheese on top & talk about good, this is.. I hadn't heard of this bran. There is 16 oz. in a bag & 12 bags. The quantity make it very convenient for a family of 6. If one likes baked macaroni with cheese this is very delicious. Also, macaroni salad would be great. Lot of way to make this product. Therefore the quantity is good to have on the pantry shelf Going for a visit, grab a bag to take along This is a very good child or children pleaser. Children will eat macaroni when they will not touch other foodsGive it a try with a favorite recipe. .

How many packages of DaVinci Pasta Short Cuts Penne Rigate have we consumed at our house? Can't say, we have lost track. Several cases over the past few years. Dozens of packages. There are of course differences between pasta brands, and although no one is going to confuse this with Giuseppe Cocco gourmet hand made pasta, and other brands extruded through bronze molds, this is still very good pasta for the money. There are worse dried pastas selling for more. DaVinci Pasta Short Cuts Penne Rigate is a solid value, especially by the case. No complaints here. RECOMMENDED.
