    I personally like it, but there's a LOT of people who don't. Just a suggestion, but I recently bought the little gadget that turns zucchini into pasta ribbons.... Of course it doesn't taste like pasta, but we put some homemade marinara on it the first time, then tried my boyfriend's low-cal version of an alfredo (it's crazy, but it it works) and I'll tell you what - I'm kind of loving it. A little sauce and cheese, and you get that overall feeling of eating pasta, and you can eat quite a bit....

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

    I prefer it. It has a more nutty taste which can take more robust sauces, and is more forgiving on cooking time without going slimey.

    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.

    Why would spaghetti make you 'nervous'? If you don't want to try it, no problem. If you try it and like it, no problem. If you try it and don't like it, no problem.

    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.
