Great Value, Elbows, 16 oz Box, (Shelf Stable)

Overall, customer experience and reception of this product seems to be positive. Customers appreciate the variety of products available for online shopping and the ease of being able to shop from home. The affordable price and ease of cooking are also highlighted as positive aspects. However, there are a few issues that some customers have mentioned. One customer mentioned that there was a substitution with a different kind of pasta, which others may have doubled up on one of the other boxes. This suggests a possible issue with accuracy or communication in the ordering process. Additionally, another customer mentioned being surprised to receive the product in bags instead of boxes, which could be a concern for those who prefer the original packaging. Another criticism is the lack of a conversion chart on the box. This can be frustrating for customers who need to know the amount of dry pasta to use for a specific recipe. It seems that other similar products, like rice and grits, provide this information on their packaging. Lastly, there is a customer who experienced problems with the texture and flavor of the pasta. They mentioned that even after boiling for 20 minutes, the pasta was still not cooked properly and did not absorb any flavor from the broth used. This raises concerns about the quality and taste of the product. In conclusion, while this product has some positive aspects such as affordability and ease of cooking, there are some issues with accuracy in ordering, packaging, and the lack of a conversion chart. Moreover, one customer experienced dissatisfaction with the texture and flavor of the pasta.
