Well, other than the fact that its delicious....it has more fibre in it than the other junk. Fibre is a really important thing to have in your diet (keeps stuff moving through your digestive system and makes you feel full when eating) and most people don't get enough of it (because it gets taken out when food is processed from delicious whole wheat to crappy refined white stuff)

Whole wheat pasta has the same nutritional value with respect to calories, fat, cholesterol, and carbs, but it also has lots of nutrients that normal pasta doesn't have. Just like the difference between whole wheat bread (good for you) and white bread (not so much).

It's not processed wtih chemicals, they use chemicals to take the color out of that stuff to make it white

since it hasn't been enriched or had sugar added to it, it's healthier for you.
