When people around the world think of fresh ingredients, artful cooking and delicious family meals, they think of Italy. When Italians think of eating well, they think of a boy – the Barilla Boy, whose bright smile has stood for the high quality of Barilla products since he first hefted an oversized egg in 1910.

The Barilla Boy, who carries a giant tomato these days, symbolizes the Barilla family's nearly 130-year commitment to the authentic Italian family meal. Beginning this month, he takes us back to our roots by greeting American families from the jars of Barilla sauces. Our new look is coming soon to your favorite store.
