Q: Is there "enriched" flour in this product, in any way? The ingredients don't seem to indicate that. I prefer non-enriched.

Q: Why does Target.com list the ingredients as containing egg whites? The product does not contain egg ingredients at all, so I find that extremely misleading and in need of correction.

Delicious
I was pleasantly surprised by this protein pasta! It has a great texture and tastes very similar to traditional pasta while providing extra protein. It cooks well, holds its shape, and pairs perfectly with a variety of sauces. It's a great option for anyone looking to add more protein to their meals without sacrificing flavor. Healthy, filling, and a great value—I will definitely be buying it again!

Amazing taste, fiber, and protein. Tastes exactly like regular pasta (maybe even better??). The macros are amazing and no cooking issues like other weird pastas.

My new pasta!
Don't believe the cook in 7-9 minutes package directions. You need to cook for around double the time to achieve a pasta that's indistinguishable from regular pasta. A much healthier option with added benefits.

Great option for Autistic folks and those with food aversions
We have tried so many different pastas trying to find one with more protein that the kids actually liked. Having Autistic family members can make nutritious meal planning difficult, especially when dealing with food aversions or having a very small amount of ‘safe foods’. I definitely recommend anyone with a neurodivergent family member who lives off of beige foods to try this. The safest option we have found is serving it cooked, plain, and letting them add what they like.

Almost indistinguishable
Passes so well for regular pasta compared to like lentil, edamame, or chickpea alternatives. Has less protein in it, but worth it in taste.

My new fav go to pasta
I’ve tried a number of healthier pasta options. I didn’t care for the penne version of this - you could tell it was a protein pasta and stiff, but this one is fantastic. I think I could feed this to anyone without them knowing the difference, and being vegetarian I’m always looking for more ways to add protein to my diet - with pasta it was usually blending some beans into the sauce. This will make it even better. I will keep this stocked from now on.

Tastes like spaghetti
It tastes like regular spaghetti! I have tried countless chickpea and lentil pasta varieties. While some are okay, nothing has compared to the real deal. Until now. The texture and taste are fantastic. And I’m so happy to be feeding myself and my family pasta with greater protein and fiber content. I will definitely be buying this again!
