It's GOOD for you??? I had nary a clue.

The amount I add, usually two teaspoons to a 3 cup semolina batch,
doesn't really figure into the flavor, well after adding marinara sauce
and parmesan cheese, anyways.

It's not worth it if you combine the s'ghetti with marinara and paremsan
prior to serving.
