Wheat Pasta

I know its still pasta but would this be healthier than eating white pasta? I am trying to stay away from carbs and pasta is my weakness. The amount of carbs is the same.

yes wheat is the better kind of carb...complex...so even though they have the same grams of carbs...the more fiber/complex carbs the better...

its the same way with fats...olive oil is great...but margarine is bad...

i just started switching from reg. pasta to the whole wheat one... it just sounds healthier

Ok...I did some research...you have to look for WHOLE wheat products...since some products only use a little bit of wheat and then use caramel coloring...

but whole wheat or whole grain has to have at least 51%...

they say to look in the first few ingridients...if it says enriched flour...or has a chemical sound to it...its not whole wheat...

Thanks Ericka!! Coincidentally, my dad bought a package this weekend. I will read the ingredients. Thanks!

Trader Joe's sells a Low Carb Wheat Pasta - I have a box of it...I will look up the name for you!
