    Thanks for the picture, Firecat! :)

    Well, I made the approximate serving size, ate the approximate serving size, and then decided that pasta is evil. It is so delicious and never filling.

    I agree. I can't just eat pasta by itself. I have to have some sort of protein with it or it's useless.

    Trust me when I say ...WEIGH it. Don't try to eyeball it! I had no idea what one serving looked like and almost cried when I realized how little it really was. We now rarely eat it cause I hate to waste so many calories on such a little amount of food!

    This is what I needed to know! I haven't been weighing very long, before I was just using a measuring cup, and 2oz of cooked pasta is hardly anything! The package didn't say whether to weigh it dry or cooked and I didn't want to do the wrong thing!
