About ACINI DI PEPE PASTA, ENRICHED MACARONI PRODUCT
Acini di Pepe Pasta from KROGER is a small spherical pasta shape sold under The Kroger Co.'s standard Kroger private-label brand as an enriched macaroni product. Acini di pepe, meaning "peppercorns" in Italian, are tiny round pasta beads typically ranging from 1 to 2 millimeters in diameter. This shape is commonly used in soups, particularly Italian wedding soup, as well as cold pasta salads and Mediterranean-style dishes. The Kroger brand represents everyday grocery value within The Kroger Co.'s store brand hierarchy.
The ingredient list is composed of semolina and four B-vitamin and iron enrichment compounds: niacin, ferrous sulfate, thiamine mononitrate, riboflavin, and folic acid. Semolina is coarse ground durum wheat, the traditional and preferred flour for dried pasta production, valued for its high protein content, gluten strength, and ability to maintain firmness during cooking. No eggs, oil, salt, or additives are included.
Nutritionally, this pasta provides 357 calories per 100 grams in its dry state, with 75 grams of carbohydrates, 12.5 grams of protein, 1.79 grams of fat, and 3.6 grams of dietary fiber. The calorie density is moderate to moderately high for a dry pasta, and the protein level is consistent with semolina-based pasta products. Cooked pasta will have lower calorie and nutrient density per 100 grams due to water absorption.
This product contains wheat and is not suitable for individuals with celiac disease, wheat allergy, or non-celiac gluten sensitivity. It is free of eggs, dairy, soy, and animal products in its declared formulation, making it suitable for vegans and vegetarians. It is a standard pantry pasta item with broad culinary versatility.
