I'm not feeling to well tonight, so I'm doing a bunch of reading & not posting. Look in the pasta aisles in the grocery & look for different veggie pasta, if it has wheat move on. The other place they sneak these pasta's into is Gluten free & organic. @ least where I live.

:gbh:

Feel better soon!

What makes the seemingly healthy type pastas high in protein? I thought maybe it was the lentils. But what is making this green bean one high protein? Is it the process or are green beans that high in protein to make it a high protein food?

Product description

Bellabondonza bean pastas are truly good for you. They have 4X the protein (24g) of traditional pasta, 1/2 the carbs (21g), 2X the fiber (11g), are naturally high in iron and calcium, gluten-free, vegan, organic and have a low glycemic index. Our pastas contain only 2 ingredients: organic beans and purified water. Compare to other pasta alternatives that are filled with additives. Bellabondonza pasta is better than guilt-free--it's truly healthy!

The second review said it was gross so they threw it out and others said it was mushy or tasted bad.... I find it hard to believe the protein content and based on the negative reviews I wouldn't buy it. I have a harder time believing the good reviews. I've bought black bean pasta before... solely made from black beans. The water was totally gummy and the flavor... bleh... I wouldn't feed it to the birds or wildlife.... but I'm sure a possum would love it.
