I love this pasta and no one in my area carries it. If I find it out of town they're aren't enough bags on the shelf. It was also a wonderful present for a family member watching his carbs because of Type II Diabetes.

Carba-Nada Low Carb Lemon Pepper Fettuccine Pasta 10 oz. bag Feature

  • Lower Carbs Than Regular Pasta
  • Sugar Free
  • 1g of Fat per serving
  • 18g Net Carbs Per Serving
  • Diabetic-Friendly
NOT FOR INDUCTION OR ONGOING WEIGHT LOSS PHASES OF THE ATKINS DIET. Carba-Nada Pasta is a great tasting reduced carb pasta and not an ultra low carb pasta.A reduced-carb pasta with wonderful taste and texture! To top it off, because Al Dente pasta cooks in just 3 minutes, it has a remarkably low glycemic index, slowing the rate at which it is digested. Healthy and all-natural. Since 1981, Al Dente's reputation has been based on its famous ""tender but firm"" texture that tastes just like home made. Carba-Nada line includes Basil Fettuccine, Roasted Garlic Fettuccine, Lemon Pepper Fettuccine and Egg Fettuccine. By substituting wheat gluten, fiber, and high-protein soy flour for some of the semolina of normal pasta, Al Dente has succeeded in bringing the total carb count down to 18 net grams per serving. Because Al Dente is one of the few pasta companies in the country to sheet rather than extrude their dough, they are able to achieve a texture that is more similar to traditional fresh egg pasta. This method, along with the great, all-natural flavors, give a real taste treat to the millions of people who do not want to give up pasta even though they are on low-carb diets. Al Dente Pasta Company has found a wonderful balance - a great tasting pasta with a lower carb count (18g net carbs per serving) vs. regular pasta (45g or more per serving). Now we know 18g Net Carbs is not right for everyone but when you are close to your goal or want to have that occasional pasta treat, Carba-Nada will satisfy you. Nutrition Facts: Serving Size 1 1/2 cups - 2 oz. dry (56g), Servings Per Container 5, Total Calories 140, Calories From Fat 10, Total Fat 1g, Saturated Fat 0g, Trans Fat 0g, Cholesterol 10mg, Sodium 80mg, Total Carbs 24g, Dietary Fiber 6g, Sugars 0g, Protein 12g. *Net Carbs = 18g per serving. Ingredients: Semolina, wheat gluten, malto-dextrin (fiber), soy flour, whole eggs, lemon juice, lemon oil, lemon peel, cracked peppercorns.

Dreamfields Healthy Low Carb Spaghetti Pasta 13.25 oz. box

Dreamfields Healthy Low Carb Spaghetti Pasta 13.25 oz. box Review


See more picture


This great tasting pasta is a diabetic's Godsend! Being a Type 2 Diabetic, I am always looking for ways to reduce my carb intake. Up till now that has meant avoiding pasta completely since a single serving of normal pasta has about 35 - 40 carbs. This has been one of the biggest impacts to my diet as we love Italian cooking. I was not sure about Dreamfields' claim to only have 5 carbs, but we gave it a try anyway.

After having a full serving, my blood sugar levels only took a modest rise, about what I would have expected from 5 carbs (plus the 15 others from the rest of the meal)!

It does cost more than regular pasta, but it is worth it to me to be able to eat pasta again.

Highly Recommended!

Low Carb Pasta Perfection - Tami - Moore, OK
I've used all of the different pastas from Dreamfields. They taste exactly like any regular pasta that you buy at the supermarket. I've served this to family and friends who don't even know they are eating low carb. They think we are having a cheat day..lol. You honestly will not know that you are eating low carb pasta.

Tastes Great BUT - David Jarrett - USA
This pasta tastes great, but it made my blood sugar rise as much as any other pasta.

Don't know why it affects some people differently.

Dreamfields - Low Carb Pasta - Linguine

Dreamfields - Low Carb Pasta - Linguine Review


See more picture


I've been using Dreamfields pasta for about a year and a half now. It's become a kitchen staple for us. I bought it to help keep my sugar under control while still enjoying pasta dishes. My husband, a very finicky eater, didn't even notice it was high-fiber (well, until he got a bit gassy later). Tastewise, this is just as good as regular, quality pasta. (And not gritty like whole wheat ones can be.)

A very nice product, and a boon to those watching their sugar numbers. I'll add that I don't get the super-sleepiness after eating this pasta that I used to eating regular pasta (you know, that post-carb napping syndrome).

I've used the penne, the linguine, the elbow (for mac'n'cheese) and the lasagna (for veggie and regular lasagne casseroles). Great. All of them.

Thumbs up.

Great pasta - Mevans - Shoreline, WA

Tofu Shirataki Noodles Spaghetti Shape 10 bags Review

I've seen these around but all the negative press told me it wasn't worth the agony of trying to choke these stinky slimy suckers down. Anyway, practicing the reasonable-carb lifestyle, I rarely eat pasta but miss the convenience of pasta dishes for lunch. Wondering if they were really *that* bad, I busted out the fiver I had burning a hole in my pocket and bought two bags. Ready for the most horrendous smell that had ever invaded human nostrils, I opened the bag and held my breath. No sirens went off, the cats were still walking around and life appeared to go on, so I let my guard down and decided to take a breath while the noodles and I were in the same room. Silly me, I thought to myself. I've been fooled by the drama of Amazon reviewers. Sure they do have a smell, but steaming up some brussels sprout will leave you worse off. A 30-second generous rinse of hot water in my favorite yellow Tupperware strainer yielded a healthy portion of stench-free noodles. Then I decided to do what no man has dared to do before! I reach into the strainer with my index finger and opposable thumb, pinched a tablespoon-sized serving of plain hot rinsed noodles, and stuck them directly in my mouth! O.M.G.... nothing happened. So I made my spaghetti and had a great day.

Mushy - Cheryl Panebianco - Sarasota, FL
I really tried to like these, I don't even remember ordering them on line as they are in my local supermarket. First you have to get over the fishy smell when you open them even after rinising well they smell and then they are mushy. I've tried them several ways and to me I'd rather just eat a smaller portion of pasta as these don't satisfy at all.
