Not perfect but a very good replacement
Liked the rotini enough that I ordered this multipack. Not as good as real durum wheat pasta but a good enough imitation when eaten with tomato or cheese-based sauce, especially if you add some protein like chicken or even meatballs.
Definitely needs some additional cooking time beyond the recommended 10 mins. For my family we like to cook them as follows to get it less firm without over cooking:
Rotini: 15-16 mins
Penne: 18-19 mins
Fettuccini: 14-15 mins
Elbows: 12-14 mins
