Free Pasta

[Frizbee]

Did anyone else get an email regarding free pasta from barilla?
I REALLY want to answer this but I fear it is someone spamming me. BTW they stated they got my info from cheftalk. Below I have copied the email. My flags went up when they said I was an influential member....I don't think I am that influential...LOL

This is the message:

a new more nutritious alternative to traditional pasta. It is made with
multigrains, is a good source of fiber, protein and heart healthy

Penne youÂ’ll help spread the word about its many nutritional benefits
