I was wondering, what brand of pasta do you normally buy?
We usually get the brand that is on sale, but here in Arizona the brand that usually tends to go on sale is American Beauty by New World Pasta. Depending on the state that you live in, New World Pasta actually sells its pasta under several different names, including Ronzoni, American Beauty, Skinner, San Giorgio, Creamette, and Prince. Some states may feature more than one brand depending on which part of the state.
Of the brands you've named, I've only seen Ronzoni. I always buy Barilla. I had some Italians living here tell me that's the best. Hasn't let me down yet.
Fresh only; The Olivieri plant is on Annacis Island here in BC. They export all over the world.
As I get older I my system doesn't recognize dried pasta as food, and rebels!

Usually Barilla, most of the time whole grain, but we also make it from scratch sometimes. Pasta is one of those things that's still cheap, so no real need to watch for sale prices.
