Don't give up on the pasta. Try another brand, not necessarily from a health
food store, either. Whatever you end up with, WW pasta definitely requires a
sauce with a darker flavor. A heavy infusion of mushrooms help.

Muir Glen makes very good salsa. Too bad they didn't get the tomatoes right.
Does the label say "made by", or "distributed by"?
