Whole Grain spaghetti???

the spaghetti is good, it just has a different texture / bite to it that is almost reminiscent of being aldente even when being cooked all the way. I personally like it, but some people don't.

whole grains are very good for you, however, you want to make sure not to buy into market schemes by a lot of pasta companies, and focus on buying pasta that are 100% whole grains and not some blend, because at that point you may as well just eat the regular pasta lol.

I love whole grain spaghetti. I find it has way more flavour and is less starchy, and you get the fibre and all that good stuff that you don't with refined grains. I don't eat a lot of grain products, though, because they're easy for me to overeat.

I don't like it - texture is off to me. It's not the taste so much but the texture I can't get past.

Read the labels....it's not really that much different. It's still a high carb, high glycemic food. I say eat the regular spaghetti and add a sh&tload of veggies to it. Unless you like the whole wheat....I don't mind either type, but pasta gets on my nerves when it comes to chewing it. It breaks into pieces and just slides down my throat...it's hard to break it down in my mouth without looking like a rabbit chewing.

I didn't like it and I couldn't get anyone to eat it. If you like it, though, go for it.

It's definitely a hit or miss with most people. I do not like it one bit. Tried it several times, it's just not for me.

I get both and mix them together because the texture of the whole wheat pasta is very different from regular pasta. However, lately, i've been trying to cut carbs as much as possible so when we have spaghetti I use spaghetti squash instead... even my hubby will eat it and he's super picky when it comes to healthy eating.

^^^^^^^^^ THIS 100%!

Exactly.

I like it better. It takes a little longer to cook and the texture requires some getting used to, but now I can't stand regular pasta. Just make sure you read the label. Most "whole grain" spaghettis are anything but.

Depends entirely on the brand and what type of whole grains. I hate whole wheat pasta of any kind - I find there's no al dente to it. It's either gummy, or crunchy with no in-between. Dreamfields is better - still has a little bit of a tacky mouthfeel to it even when properly cooked. I don't have a problem with it, but still prefer regular pasta. Then there's the new Barilla 'protein plus' pasta that's made with a bunch of different whole grains including quinoa. That one has the best texture in my opinion. I can get a nice al dente bite with it. The taste is a bit different than regular pasta, though. I liked it, thought it was a bit nutty, but I can see where others would not.

I like it. And I like that I feel so much more full than when I eat "normal" spaghetti.

Not a fan of Whole Grain spaghetti, but Quinoa spaghetti, or Brown Rice Spaghetti is yummy! My family thinks the whole grain pasta gets too mushy. We use the other two option strictly b/c they are better than regular for my sons high cholesterol.

Depends on the brand. If you like your spaghetti al dente like me, Barilla whole grain spaghetti actually tastes better than "regular". Even my kids love it and they usually avoid whole grain pasta like the plague.
