What You Should Know

You’d spot this box in the pasta aisle or tucked into a tidy Whole Foods pantry — a go-to for simple weeknight dinners or a comforting Sunday sauce. It gives off a wholesome, slightly nostalgic vibe: basic, reliable Italian-style pasta that evokes family meals without fuss. The single-ingredient label (organic durum wheat semolina) and the drying/extrusion process point to a processed but not ultra-processed product: firm texture and consistent cooking from industrial milling rather than industrial formulations or additives.

Processed Food
