But planning on eating the pasta only.. Cant figure out the calories could someome please help? It says that the whole things 294 calories. I measured the pasta and it weighed 150g but whenever I search the calories on google it comes up with different calories.

This maybe? https://www.fatsecret.com/calories-nutrition/usda/dry-spaghetti?portionid=62549&portionamount=100.000 Pasta is typically the same recipe no matter what shape it's in, so 100g macaroni should equal 100g spaghetti, etc (or be close enough).

You probably can't get an accurate count of calories in pasta that you didn't cook yourself because pasta should be weighed dry, since the amount of water absorbed increases with cooking time and that affects the cooked weight and calories. But you should be able to get a decent guesstimate. Just be sure you are looking at calories for cooked pasta or it will be way off.
