[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because Americans, being among the unhealthiest populations on the planet earth, have gotten it into their idiot fad-diet brains to be petrified of "carbs" - failing to realize that the healthiest and longest living populations on earth eat a mostly carb-based diet.

You think the people OP is describing, who eat spaghetti with hot dogs, are “afraid of carbs”?

Are you able to read? Serious question.[/quote]

[b]OP listed two foods her IL's eat.  She didn't say they eat spaghetti with hot dogs.  [/b]

I have family members who like to eat lower carb. If I serve a meal where the carbs are incorporated (e.g. spaghetti with meat sauce, jambalaya) they'll eat it, but if I serve something where there's a side dish of carbs -- whether that's bread, or mashed potatoes, or rice, they won't take any.  It's one way to reduce the calories of the meal.  [/quote]
Yeah. Really odd that people are coming in over and over to post about this supposed combination.[/quote]

What is actually hilarious is that spaghetti and hotdogs is an Asian dish loved by Filipinos. The combo is super common and is readily available at pretty much any Filipino gathering. 😂[/quote]

If anyone has ever been to a Jollibee (Filipino fast food), they have that on their menu. I had it for the first time when I was pregnant and, oh my gawd, it was so crazy good. [/quote]
