Barilla today announced the nationwide availability of its new line of microwaveable meals - single servings of pasta and sauce that are ready to eat after just 60 seconds in the microwave. They deliver the Italian taste and quality people have come to expect from Barilla in a shelf stable and portable meal.
Barilla has captured the Guinness World Record for the biggest pasta box. Unveiled in Istanbul, the boxes weigh a half metric ton and benefit the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) to help enroll underprivileged children in preschool education programs.
This spring, Barilla, the Italian food company, is partnering with the Italian American Committee on Education (IACE) to sponsor its “Eat Healthy and Speak Italian” cooking series for children at The International Culinary Center in New York City.
Published in collaboration with the Worldwatch Institute, the book will be available for free on Earth Day, Sunday April 22nd. Visit the Barilla think tank website at www.barillacfn.com
