The short answer is "NO", not as tasty as it was in Rome. But it has traveled quite a distance, so I am not surprised that it is dried.
The funny note: It took me about 1/2 hour to select and buy this. I went to DeFalco's Italian Deli and had to discuss the purchase and listen to all of the local Italian stories. The consensus is that "my Mom used to toast/make french toast/butter and fry (select your favorite) this on Christmas Day". Well, no wonder! It was dried. So while I can't eat this with lush butter, as we did in Rome, it is good buttered and lightly fried. I think that the Italian moms make these changes to overcome the dryness.
