TELL ME ABOUT IT. That's how I got to be over 300 lbs. I LOVED PASTA.

I was raised on Spaghetti, garlic and broccoli. Never tasted such a delicious thing in all my life. My mother would make this DISH, I never duplicated it, but I never ate just one bowl. My god I could polish off 3 bowls it was so good.

But I just do the scaled down version.

And I tried the Smart Harvest (I think that's the name) by Ronzoni. Some kind of smart whole grain pasta.
I threw it in the trash. I hated it. But that's just me. My friend loves it.

For me, the best tasting low-carb pasta is dreamfields. It tastes exactly like spaghetti.

Oh, don't know if you've ever tried Quinoa, but it comes in pasta too. Go online and google Quinoa Pasta.

VERY EXPENSIVE, but it's supposed to be the best thing for your body (or some such nonsense). I couldn't afford it.

lol
