This beats $1 barilla/ronzoni/prince/store brand because the die cut makes the pasta surface rougher, which allows for better sauce adhesion.
I can get DeCecco for a similar price at Restaurant Depot, but only if I buy a 20lb case (of 5lb x4 bags), and you don't get as much variety (penne, linguini/spaghetti, mezze rigatoni if you're lucky).

I only buy the pasta that is made in Italy, non-enriched durum wheat, bronze cut. Harris teeter has one that always goes on B2G3 sales which drop it down to the price of the store brand crap. I stock the pantry on those sales.
We don't eat pasta often but I feel a little bit better using a good one. Attached is the brand that Harris Teeter sells, I think Kroger also carries it.
I used to buy the De Cecco but it's now using enriched flour so I switched to the attached one.
Other store brands on this level would be Rummo, DeCecco, Delallo, and Barilla just came out with a new "Al Bronzo" line that's pretty decent too. The rule is "The whiter the pasta, the better."
It will be interesting to see if even this introductory quality level is maintained with them being a Campbell's soup product now. Like others, IMO the sauce has gotten worse since, switching to Del Grosso as our premium base.

RAO's pasta is pretty decent. It's bronze cut, the ingredients are basically "semolina flour and water," and they do a proper drying process that lets the pasta get the proper texture when cooked + gives those little "ridges" that holds on to sauce.
