Trader Joe's Organic Brown Rice & Quinoa Fusilli Pasta







  1. Haven't seen this, probably because I don't eat pasta any longer... Have u tried the frozen quinoa? Not bad, pretty good, tho there is only 2 bags vs. 3 which the brown rice has..

  2. Maybe part of the reason this gluten free pasta is a win is because there ISN'T anything distinctive about it? That is, gluten free items can be so hit or miss, and people are so cautious of the taste and texture that the goal for the good stuff is to just make it taste as much like its standard gluten rich counterpart as possible.

    1. Yeah, I was kinda thinking that, but the corn pasta more than amply fills that void. For this, I was hoping for something a little more "special" (especially considering it cost $3 for the bag vs $1 for regular vs $1.39 [I think} for the corn pasta). I mean, it's not bad, but as someone who's not gluten-sensitive by any stretch, it doesn't hold much of a compleling reason to buy again.

  3. As someone who has to eat gluten free, this pasta is special..very special. This pasta holds sauce well, tastes great! Pasta salad once again! Thank you trader joes...something more palatable than anything we have had that is gluten free!
