Does it get too dry? Go stale?

Is there something that makes dried pasta unable to rehydrate?

    In my experience the pasta breaks apart more the older it gets during the cooking process. The end result of a particularly old box of rotini looks more like the fragments at the bottom of a bag of tortilla chips that are too small to dip with.

    My personal cutoff is about 1.5-2 years after expiration

    Never had an issue with taste though
