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

I gotta agree Dreamfields is the best low carb I've tasted.

And I am with you that Quinoa Pasta is way out of my price range.

I swear it's like I am addicted to pasta. I just gotta get better will power. Know where I can buy some?

But as for figuring out the GI for other foods is there any way to do it, or do we just have to guess how out bodies will react?
