Pasta prices in South Korea - How do these compare to your country?

Hi everyone, I'm from South Korea. While pasta isn't exactly a staple food here, I personally enjoy it often because it's affordable and very easy to prepare.

Until recently, Divella was the only budget-friendly option, so that’s what I usually bought. However, brands like Barilla, De Cecco, and Rummo have started becoming available at more reasonable prices lately.

Even so, there's still a noticeable price gap between these brands, so I'm debating whether the premium ones are worth the jump. I was curious to know what people abroad think of these prices!

Note:

  • I used AI to translate the product info in the image.
  • In Korea, all listed prices already include a 10% VAT, so keep that in mind when comparing.
