Barilla Fully Cooked READY PASTA, VARIETY 8 Pack: 2 Pouches each of ROTINI, PENNE, ELBOWS, GEMELLI + FREE pack of silver plastic utensils! (8.5 oz each pouch) NEW FOR 2017!

They are so fast and convenient for use.

Great product. I use them in a pinch.

Finally . . . a way to have tasty, perfect pasta ready for the table after just 1 minute in the microwave! Since the pasta is heated in its own package no pots or pans are required unless you choose to heat some sauce on the stovetop ahead of time. Of course butter and olive oil also work as a convenient toppings as well. Just the thing for the end of a long day when you feel like pasta but don't feel like preparing and then cleaning up after a conventional pasta meal. The packages are 16 oz. which is theoretically 2 servings if you prefer to add a side dish. Literally every acquaintance with whom I've shared this pasta has raved about it and thanked me for the recommendation: "Hey . . . that microwave pasta is really good!"

Super convenient and warms up delightfully. However it is very al dente expecially denser products . Hollow types like rotini or elbows are less chewy. For quick pasta with almost no cleanup this is a winner.

I liked not having to cook it in pot. Saves time.

NOT fully cooked. I purchased as part of hurricane fortifications only to find that this pasta still requires 4-6 min of boiling water.

QUICK AN EASY, PASTA JUS RITE!!!!

I was delighted to find a . place where I could buy the original 8.5 ounce pouches instead of the newer 7 ounce ones, but was extremely disappointed when the package arrived. All 8 of the pouches were 7 ounces each.NOT OKAY TO FALSLY ADVERTISE!
