Option For Pasta Lovers

Has anyone tried the Dreamfields Pasta?

I question anything that is "too good to be true" but I have tried the Dreamfields Penne pasta and it was tasty. I could only eat about 6 pieces of pasta, but it satisfied the desire. Below are two links regarding the pasta -- FAQ and the Nutrition Panel.

Please share your thoughts.

Thanks!

Yes, I've tried it. It's virtually indistinguishable from regular Pasta, at least to my taste buds (and I'm Italian). I was able to eat 8 pieces, which was like a feast! I've heard others say they enjoy whole wheat Pasta and rice pasta.

If you do a search for "Dreamfields" or "low carb pasta" on here you''ll find rather lengthy discussions on the topic.

I have never separated digestible carbs for non-digestible carbs. I'll try it though. I'm not inclined to eat Pasta at all during this time when I seem to stall for long periods, but I will make an exception because I'm really curious.

It's available at Albertsons, Vons and Ralphs in my neighborhood.

Thank you so much!

I don't really monitor my carbs but I enjoyed Dreamfields before surgery and still enjoy it to this day!! Tastes great and personally, I can't tell any difference!

Good info, I will have to find that Dreamfields and try it. I haven't had Pasta since my surgery. I don't really crave it, but I wouldn't mind trying it to see how it tastes now and how it goes down.

I saw a story a few months ago about this Australian product called SlimPasta, seemed to be getting good reviews: http://slimpasta.com.au/

I assume it will eventually make it to the U.S. if there's not already a way to order it online.

According to the website, it's almost the same as shiritaki Pasta. When I'm farther out and can incorporate more into my diet, I want to try these noodle alternatives.

I tried it years back when I was doing Atkins, its pretty good, I also heard you can use spaghetti squash alternative too, I've never tried it before though.

This has way too many calories for me! I think I will just stick to my spagetti squash! Thanks for the info anyway!

My serving size is more like 1 oz. so 95 calories isn't too bad for a starch.
