Heart-healthy GoodWheat pasta was chosen by the RDBA based on
its better-for-you attributes including delivering four times the
fiber of regular pasta – with 8g per serving versus 2g in regular
wheat pasta and 9g of protein – with zero compromise on taste or
texture.
“Consumers are looking ways to improve their nutrition, and
registered dietitians play an important role in promoting healthier
living, especially at the retail shelf where there are so many
alternatives available,” said Stan Jacot, CEO of Arcadia
Biosciences. “We’re thrilled to receive this recognition from the
RDBA, validating the benefits of our delicious and nutritious
GoodWheat pasta.”
According to a 2022 Food and Health survey from the
International Food Information Council, RDNs are the most trusted
source of information on foods to eat and avoid, making them a
valuable resource for consumers seeking healthier products.
Shari Steinbach, MS, RDN, registered dietitian nutritionist and
RDBA member, sampled GoodWheat pasta and applauded the new product.
“With its great taste and nutritional benefits, single ingredient
GoodWheat pasta is a delicious solution for people seeking to add
more fiber and protein to their diets,” said Steinbach. “I’ll
definitely be recommending it!”
GoodWheat launched in June 2022 with five pasta varieties:
penne, spaghetti, fettuccine, elbows, and rotini, and it has the
American Heart Association® (AHA) Heart-Check certification. It is
available at more than 1,600 retail locations across the United
