I'll second that recommendation. I've had some horrible whole wheat
pastas (Hodgekins Mill was one I recall) but the Ronzoni was decent.

I think sometimes people mistakenly think items at a health food store
are particularly tasty. I've yet to buy anything at one I liked. I fell
for that "carob is just like chocolate only healthier" BS once and am
still gagging about it.
