Protein+ Rotini

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 1 ingredient to avoid

Barilla Protein+ Rotini scores 64/100 on Tallow — our okay band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

Barilla Protein+ Rotini lists 12 ingredients, starting with Semolina, Durum Wheat Flour, Lentil Flour, Pea Protein and Chickpea Flour. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

At 64/100 Barilla Protein+ Rotini lands mid-scale — below the typical score in pasta & noodles, but clear of the bottom band. A higher-scoring option in pasta & noodles is Rao's Homemade Spaghetti at 100/100.
