I found a new pasta product at Wally World. Pasta Portions from Creamette. It is a quick cook pasta. It comes in three mesh plastic bags. Just drop the bag in boiling water for three minutes. Pretty good. I tried it tonight.
Might be the ticket this year with some dehydrated hamburger and sauce. I think it sold for $1.25.

Looks like the Ronzoni and the Creamette are one and the same. Even have the same website.
I'll never figure out corporate America

Thought I'd bump this. I could not find this product in 2012. It is back in our local HyVee store. No mesh bags just loose elbow stuff, but still cooks in three minutes. A fuel and time saver!
