This pasta is GOOD! You really can't tell much difference from wheat. I was surprised. I'm fairly new to the world of gluten free eating and have not been won over by products other people say are tasty. My taste buds haven't become accustomed to many years of wheat free living yet but they gave this product two thumbs up!
Very happy with this product
This pasta is delicious, the best I have ever eaten and I highly recommend it. I would like to see Amazon stock all the different types of pasta that this company makes. I would order some of all.
Best gluten free pasta. Your kids will love it.
Being gluten free can be a challange to find products that can be fun to eat not just a substitute that reminds you that you are being deprived of what everyone else eats. So far, (and I have tried several) Tinkyada is the only GF pasta that I have found that is close in texture and fun as wheat spaghetti and I am including other pasta shapes in this review. My husband even likes it and I have served GF pasta with chicken and sauce over it to guests and they were suprised it was GF. It doesn't bloat you like wheat pasta. You just feel comforatbly full after a big wad of "sketti". One downside of any of the GF pastas is that they are stiff and breakable when cold so it is hard to use them for cold pasta salad. However, I had some that I had overcooked a little and that seemed to work pretty well for cold salad. You will have to experiment for yourself with that. At any rate, I would definitely suggest you try the spaghetti especially if you have a child who is gluten free. Also the pasta will make great mac and cheese.
Yummy
My husband got us this since we are avid eaters of brown rice. We love it. The secret is that it is closer to whole wheat pasta, and it does not stick together to form a big noodle bundle! If you are into wheat-free stuff, this is just for you.
The Hype is Excessive 
I really have to question the bias of the people who wrote the previous 25 reviews. They must have been Tinkyada employees, friends, or family because there is no way that it tastes five-stars.
To be fair, I do eat gluten and it is my wife who has the gluten allergy. So I do have my own biases as I eat gluten on a daily basis. My wife tells me that she forgets what gluten tastes like after months of going on the gluten-free diet, and she is able to eat alternatives that I believe do not taste as good as the wheat-full version. However, my wife is not particularly fond of this product either.
Based on the reviews, I bought this thinking this spaghetti was going to taste exactly the same as regular pasta, but the consistancy, though constant, is kind of slimy. Additionally, the "energy saving method" turns the pasta especially gooey, so I do not recommend that method of cooking should you be persuaded based on the other 25 reviews.
There are lots of other gluten-free pastas out there, like corn-based, or a mixture of potato, soy, and rice that taste a lot closer to the "real-thing." I haven't found too many alternatives on Amazon yet, but my local grocery store has a few and my wife prefers them over this brand. So at the moment, I have 11 packets of gluten-free spaghetti that I would be happy to get rid of.
