Dreamfields Pasta Calories
Pasta can be a major pitfall for many dieters. It is one of the penultimate comfort foods; the culinary equivalent of a hug from mom. Unfortunately, it can also be the caloric equivalent of a double-cheeseburger with fries.
For example, according to The Old Spaghetti Factory's Website, a single serving of Spaghetti and Meatballs contains almost 1000 Calories!
No doubt that your home-made version can do better, but no matter how good your fat-reducing and portion controlling capabilities may be, you still have to contend with the fact that the noodles alone will bump you up 200 big-c's per cup (157 calories/100 grams cooked), mostly from starch.
