Why do you have to eat pasta? Eat an apple and have a protein shake.

Shiritaki (or however you spell it) noodles are supposed to be good and there is a brand of pasta called Dreamfields that's marketed as being low-carb in that a lot of it isn't digestible; in which case it would likely be lower calorie as well.

Whole wheat pasta is an abomination. It has more in common with Ritz crackers than noodles.

soy is a filthy crop in the us and has serious estrogenic effects for men. limit it to dipping your sushi in soy sauce.

So are pretty much all beans and legumes. And plants. And animals. Do you really think cows, dogs, horses, etc. could survive in the wild?

Domestication is not the same as a scientist fucking around with the DNA.

I fucking LOVE spaghetti, or any pasta with a good red meat sauce. I used to cook it all the time, but I gave up when I cleaned up my diet at the top of the year. I now have abs, for now it's a sacrifice I'm OK with.

I tried making the Zucchini strips, and that actually was not half bad. I also tried my from-scratch sauce on top of brown rice, and that makes for a decent combo as well, weird as it sounds. It's not the same as pasta but the gist is there.

Brown rice is so fucking dumb. I hate seeing it!
