I've called this Christmas Pasta Salad because of the red and green pasta spirals. The Orgran Vegetable Rice Pasta Spirals contain 99% brown rice and 1% vegetables (beetroot and spinach). Beetroot is moderate in salicylates and spinach is very high in amines, salicylates and glutamates, however based on the small percentage of spinach contained I think the overall level would be moderate. If this isn't tolerated you can use any other pasta.
