Glyphosate-free pasta: the best Italian brands for 2022
A recent food survey, carried out in Switzerland and published in the magazine K-Tipp, analysed 18 pasta brands in a laboratory.
The aim was to check the quality and chemical composition of pasta, which is often contaminated by a toxic and dangerous herbicide, i.e. glyphosate. Only five samples successfully passed the test. Barilla took first place as the best glyphosate-free pasta brand. There seems to be no trace of that powerful herbicide in Spaghettoni and Penne Integrali.
