Many people would not consider 190 calories of pasta a decent portion, that’s why. If you do, that’s awesome, enjoy your pasta! But I don’t think most people would lol.


Well, like I said, they were like three plates or so in terms of a volume -- and I am not talking about small plates, I am talking about good sized plates. I mean, to put it another way, it was probably like half a pot, and I am talking about a really large pot. So if most people eat one plate per meal, and they eat three times a day, then yes, it would be enough for them for the day.

So how is it not enough? Are you saying most people eat more than one plate of pasta even if its a large plate? Or are you saying that when they are filled with one plate, its a different "kind" of pasta that doesn't expand as much -- so with the kind of pasta I buy they would eat more? Or what are you saying?


I doubt three big plates of pasta would be 190 calories. Maybe you need to check the number of servings per container?

I get confused when they say that pasta is fattening, because in most diet books I've ever read it often offers pasta-based meals. And I'm talking about pasta itself, not what you have with it.
