Does anyone have a problem with an orzo Pasta with collard greens

What do you mean by have a problem with it? I cannot say I'm offended by orzo.

You mean a problem eating it, as in keeping it down?

I don't eat orzo because it's just pasta; empty carbs. I would imagine if you can eat any Pasta, you wouldn't have trouble with orzo. I had some Soup yesterday that had pasta in it, no issues. It was a different shape than orzo, but still just pasta.

As a Greek woman, I have a philosophical issue with orzo and collard greens. 😁 🤷🏻‍♀️ Orzo is better with authentic feta (NOT that junk people buy in a grocery store) and lamb.

I have some good orzo in my cabinets, too, so I am interested in others’ experience with orzo.

I've had it a couple times and had no issue with it, although I get full too quickly from it.

Greek food has been a staple for me this past year and actually I spent last June travelling in Greece so other than orzo you should be fine. I make a lot of shrimp saganaki, halloumi, and homemade tzatziki. With real feta and real greek yogurt not whatever that stuff sold in America is.

I love orzo!! I made a really good Tuscan orzo with mushrooms and sundried tomatoes. It was so yummy. I bought some whole wheat orzo but I haven't tried it yet.

I loooove orzo and it goes down just fine.. only trouble is it’s so delicious I have to really pace myself so I don’t eat too fast 😆

My fear is that it WILL go down smoothly, so maybe I will hold off on orzo for a little while.

Ok I was getting confused here with "orzo" but I see it's Pasta, and yeah I can imagine it'd slip down a little too easily.
