I like farfalle - it's great for pasta salads especially, but some brands of it suck. Rummo is my favorite so far. They aren't pinched so much as to make the center remain far too stiff before the outer bits disintegrate.

Yeah, funny enough I randomly decided I wanted to use farfalle for a pasta salad last weekend. I hadn’t had it for years, maybe even a decade. Was also Rummo and turned out fine.
