    I'm the same. Toss in rice, too, cuz that looks like a bowl of termites to me. :(

    A nice loaf of homemade bread twice/yr is enough for me.

    And, meet the only person who dislikes chocolate, sugar & ice cream. I simply cannot understand the lust everyone has around chocolate. Fresh fruit is my candy.

    My favorite food in the universe is pasta (actually, it's in a tie with cheese.) I like rice, too. I dislike most store-bought bread, and most cereal is just a crappy waste of calories. Freshly baked, homemade bread is pretty good, though...

    If your pasta is bland and mushy, you're doing it wrong.

    Sooooo true!!! ;)

    Do people mean plain pasta? Who eats plain pasta? There needs to be sauce and cheese and vegetables and yummyness!

    As far as pasta goes... I guess my hang up is spaghetti, alfredo, macaroni and cheese, etc. I DO like lasagna and manicotta though...

    I love pasta, bread and rice. I really have watch my carbs. Yesterday I didn't eat my usual toast in the morning. I had 1 cup of barilla pasta (protein added), with red sauce, broccoli and 3 oz. lean chicken. Bread, I don't like most of the store brands. I make my own. I put half of it in the freezer to avoid the temptation of a whole loaf. Potatoes, I can take or leave.

    Just not a fan of starches in general. Pasta, bread, cereal, bagels, donuts, rice, etc. Give me some vegetables, meat and cheese, please! Anyone else?

    I generally don't eat a lot of pasta, bread, cereal, bagels, donuts, or rice.

    If I eat anything out of that group more than others it's cereal as a snack on the rare occasion & rice/pasta if it's in a frozen meal.

    Now this cereal is awesome! I plan on putting this on some Talenti Caramel Apple Pie gelato.

    I'm pretty indifferent to pasta. I never order it for myself. Rice or bread on the other hand has a decidedly short life expectancy if brought within reach. :disappointed:

    Even before i ate "paleo", i hated cakes and cupcakes. It's all frosting's fault; that stuff is nasty. Now i can barely handle anything very sweet unless if it's fruit or a bit of honey. I don't miss bread or pasta either, but i do miss cheese. Unfortunately it's one of those foods that make me sick forever :s

    Of course people eat plain pasta. No need to disguise it with all that other stuff. But I agree there should be a meat and a vegetable alongside of it to maintain balance.

    I'm with you in that I don't like pasta. To me, it's just tasteless, starchy filler -- kind of like rice. But I have to admit that I love a freshly-baked artesian loaf of bread slathered in Kerrygold butter. I like cereal too, but I try not to eat it since most kinds of cereal upset my stomach, and because I view cereal as basically the human equivalent of pet kibble from a nutrition standpoint.

    Rice makes me sad, I find it bland and bizarre. The texture is unpleasant to me, too. If I'm served it I will try and eat it out of politeness though!

    Bagels I think are FOUL - they are SO sweet and, urgh, just awful.

    Pasta though... sorry, I do love a bit of pasta!

    I eat maybe one slice of toast a month max. If that. Rice I can take or leave abd eat maybe 2 teaspoons a month. Pasta is great but only because it's the vehicle for amazing sauces taught to me by my Italian mother in law.

    I don't eat breakfast cereal.

    But potatoes. Omg I could eat them for every meal every day, ant way. Sadly I. Limit myself to once a week.
