Diabetic who loves Dreamfields.Jul 20, 2009
By TBR Who better than a diabetic to vouch for this product? Unlike most low-carbohydrate dieters, I test my blood sugar at least four times a day. I know how foods affect me. I have very tight control on my blood sugar; my readings are very predictable. Because of that, I know when foods have hidden carbohydrates in them.
I experimented last year with Dreamfields. I paired one serving size of the spaghetti with an olive oil and garlic sauce and topped the dish with some Parmesan cheese. Because some diabetics complain of delayed spikes, I tested every hour for four hours just to make sure. Pre-meal: 69; 1 Hour: 62; 2 Hour: 73; 3 Hour: 82; 4 Hour: 69. As you can see, I returned to pre-meal levels by four hours and my third-hour reading was the highest, but the number wasn't high in itself. I have since eaten Dreamfields on two other occasions with similar results.
I think the key is restricting your portion size to that listed on the box. Cook al dente, as overcooking can weaken the protective coating that blocks the carbohydrates. Be mindful of the sauces you're using. Jarred tomato sauce is just full of sugar. I buy a jarred Alfredo that only has 1 gram of carbohydrates per serving. Pesto and olive-oil sauces are good options, too. Add a protein to your dish; that helps.
As far as taste goes: amazing. Tastes exactly like real pasta. No one in my family knew that it wasn't the 'real' stuff. I love that Dreamfields makes more than just spaghetti. I actually got to enjoy macaroni salad at my last family gathering thanks to Dreamfields.

Low-carb pasta that tastes like PASTA!Oct 16, 2008
By Shanagan It is almost too good to be true, but the stix (Atkins followers will know what I mean) don't lie: Dreamfields pasta won't mess with your low-carbing (or your lipolysis).
I've low-carbed for the better part of 9 years, and this is one of the few low-carb products that not only delivers, it does so without any concessions. The taste & texture are spot-on, and the non-dieters in your family won't raise an eyebrow. Of course, keep it in moderation, but do give it a try.

Enjoy pasta without guiltAug 28, 2008
By Suzanne Jenkins We can once again enjoy pasta and still feel good about the carbs we are eating. Dreamfields pastas cook and taste just like the high carb versions we used to eat.

We love it!Feb 25, 2010
By Latia Ivy

We love Dreamfields pasta. I agree with other reveiws that one must pay attention to the serving size. For instance, the box of angel hair pasta is NOT a 16 oz box as one might be accustomed to using, it is 13.25 oz. and one box has 6.5 servings,or approximately 2 oz. of dry pasta per suggested serving. So one must be aware of how much pasta is on the plate! If you want to know just how Dreamfields works, do some research on the web. I always like to find articles that do not come directly from the manufacturer so I know they are not actually marketing materials. There are such articles about this pasta from various sources. I believe that it takes about 45 carbs to spike insulin, so do be careful about the sauce. A large serving of the pasta and a high-sugar sauce difinitely defeats the purpose. We cook ours 4 minutes and enjoy it regularly for a great tasting pasta. And in my family's opinion, it taste much better tasting than the whole wheat pastas available.

Excellent PastaJan 04, 2010
By L. Forrer This is excellent pasta. Tastes and cooks like regular pasta. I've been trying to eat whole grain pasta but don't really like it. So I'm glad I heard about this. I found that you can also buy it from [...]. It's cheaper and they only charge [...]shipping no matter how much you buy. I'm going to use the Amazon wishlist button the next time I order it. I did give me some gas later on. I read somewhere that means the food it getting digested in your colon and not in your intestine. I assume means the carbs are not getting asorbed and that is why this pasta is low net carb. I definitely plan to buy more Dreamfield pasta.
