No matter how much pasta you make, you’re obligated to eat it in a single sitting.
This is the way.
This is the way I die.Not like this…slurp…not like this…
I have a couple pastas that make good leftovers, but if I’m not planning on them I’ll gorge myself on the entire four person meal of pasta
Oh well, guess I’m eating pasta this month. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
How to get the correct amount of pasta:
- Get as much as you think is right.
- Wrong.
Start weighing your pasta. You’ll never cook too much again.
Start weighing EVERYTHING. The consistency your dishes reach is crazy good! A weighing scale isn’t that expensive
Ah see it wasn’t bread that jesus handed out on the mound it was a small batch of pasta
Did pasta exist in Jesus’ time? I don’t think they mention it much in the Bible.
Anyone else have a weird thing where pasta does not make them feel full?
I could probably eat 3 times as much pasta by weight as I could, let’s say, rice. And I would only have to stop because I physically feel that there is no more room in my stomach. It’s like my brain does not register pasta as food and so I don’t mentally feel full or get any less hungry.
And it’s just with pasta! Not bread, not rice, not pizza, not lasagna, nada. It is very weird and I never heard of anyone with the same issue.
Ps, because of this, I just cannot make too much pasta, no such thing.
Yes, I can eat a seemingly infinite amount of pasta. Just pasta.
I feel less alone now
I’m similar but will all carbs - only proteins make me feel full, unless there’s meat involved I generally don’t consider it a meal. Carbs and veggies do not make me full at all and I never crave them, they’re only there to give me variety and make me feel civilized while I consume meat. I never really crave sugar either.
P.S. I’m not one of those “meat-only diet” whackjobs and I have nothing against vegetarians or vegans or animals but this has just been my experience entirely.
That’s the weird thing. It’s not about the nutrient type because other types of carbs do make me feel full. It’s just specifically pasta. I don’t know why. I could easily eat a bowl of rice and feel full but I could eat three bowls of pasta and just know that I’m full but not feel it.
Lucky. For me it’s either spend more money to eat beef or pork with every meal or just cope with always feeling low-key hungry.
I’ve got a second stomach for ice cream, maybe yours is for pasta
But it’s not that I love pasta in a special way, it’s okay-ish
I have the opposite issue. Pasta makes me feel bloated.

Spaghetti? Do this 👌. A portion is more or less what fits between the thumb and the index. Anything else is excess.
The last thing I want is to make spaghetti and still be hungry after I eat it. Whole box it is.
Because honestly left over spaghetti is almost better than fresh. 👍
left over spaghetti
!!!
But yeah, there’s that whole thing with blood sugar and leftover pasta, I dunno, I’m not a scientist and I have a bad memory, but it’s basically healthier on day two.
I always weigh my pasta. A really large serving of pasta is ~4oz.
Fear not the mass of noodles, nor thine anxiety over the mountains of starch thy must consume, my son.
Tomorrow it will all be pasta tense.
So a half batch
good thing is I can eat pasta 3x as much as I can eat any other food. so to me it’s only 200 servings.
I usually do that with butter beans.
Pro tip: weigh your pasta and you’ll never make too much again.
Is 5 pounds enough?
You’ll find out! And the beauty of weight is it never changes so when you figure out that it’s somewhere north of 100g you’ll never make too much again.
