San Remo Pulse Pasta | Chewsday Review

Today’s Chewsday review features Pulse Pasta. Is it just another fad, or is it worth investing in? I’m focussing on Pulse Penne by San Remo…

Ingredients

Positives

Excellent fibre content. Works out to 9.8g per 125g serving. This is 2.5 times more fibre than in regular San Remo pasta. That is a fairly big serving, so assuming your child ate the equivalent of 1/2 a cup of uncooked penne, this works out to 3.4g of fibre which is 24% of a young child’s fibre recommendation, and 19% of an older child’s daily fibre recommendations.
Excellent low sodium content at 3mg/100g. As a comparison, wheat pasta has 30mg/100g
Low sugar content of 1.4g/100g (none added, all naturally occurring).
High protein content of 21.3g/100g which is double that of regular San Remo Penne. Having said that, most Australian kids get plenty of protein so this isn’t a huge benefit.

Alternatives

The composition of food products changes regularly. The nutritional values of the products in this Chewsday Review were correct at the time of publishing.
