According to Barilla, their gluten-free pasta is produced on a dedicated gluten-free line, ensuring safety for those with celiac disease and gluten intolerance. This commitment to purity means the final product relies on a carefully selected blend of non-wheat ingredients to achieve a classic taste and texture.

Barilla Protein Plus pasta is formulated to provide a higher protein content than traditional pasta, thanks to a multi-grain and legume flour blend. The distinctive ingredients are the key to its nutritional profile, which includes a mix of semolina wheat with flour derived from lentils, chickpeas, and peas.

According to the USDA, no genetically engineered wheat is currently grown commercially in the United States, which means all conventional wheat-based pasta is technically non-GMO. However, for those seeking stricter avoidance, many brands offer specific non-GMO certification, with organic pasta being the ultimate non-GMO option.
