SUBREDDIT: r/loseit TITLE: Is It Bullshit?: Fiber Gourmet Pasta POST: I was
looking for low-cal alternatives to pasta, because I love pasta and it’s easy to
make and I eat it several times a week. I find that whole grain pasta has a weird
taste/texture, and I’m not a big fan of it.
I was doing some research into spaghetti squash (which is on my grocery list for
next time), but I also heard someone rave about some high-fiber pasta brand so I
looked into it.
What sorcery is this? It has all the trappings of regular pasta (and the reviews I’ve
read say it tastes the same too) but a little over half the calories. My mind boggles
over how much extra pasta I could eat! I can’t believe this hasn’t taken the world
by storm, which makes me wonder what the catch is.
TL;DR: I’m trying to cut back on calories and pasta is one of my main sources.
Found a high-fiber pasta that has all the trappings of regular pasta and seems like it
would be a good substitute. Is it bullshit?
