Food Review: GF Barilla Pasta


 Hello my fellow Celiacs! I hope everyone is doing quite well. I have another food review for you.
Yesterday, I had the great pleasure to try gluten free Barilla pasta. It was being served at a family get-together.

Anyways, before I was diagnosed with Celiac disease, Barilla pasta was my go-to pasta. I loved the way it cooked. I loved the taste. I loved everything about it. Earlier this year, when I heard that Barilla was going gluten free, it was music to my Celiac ears! I couldn't wait to try it!

The pasta was absolutely amazing. The way it was cooked, the texture, everything about it screamed original Barilla. This pasta is almost identical to original pasta. It's much better than the Ronzoni gluten free pasta.

Best part about this pasta? It is made in a dedicated gluten free facility in Italy, and is certified Gluten Free!! With this pasta, you are getting the taste of the original, but, without the wheat. The pasta has non-GMO corn and rice ingredients.

The pasta retails for $2.39. It is only in select stores across the United States, but, it is expected to hit stores, nationwide, in early 2014.

Barilla, thank you for accommodating the Celiac community, and for making amazing gluten free pasta. You have yourself a life-long customer right here.
