Matt,
 
My suggestion would be to look for an alternative to pasta that is local
to your market's tastes... that is usually cheaper.... Here in Miami rice
and dry red/black beans are plentiful and very cheap when purchased in
bulk.... Mine don't eat this stuff and seem to like the finer texture for
snorking!
