[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pasta once in a while is fine, but pasta daily for multiple meals creates fat kids and fatter adults... maybe there is some mitigation if they are in active sports, but that's just kicking the can... not having your kids learn to eat properly nutritious food at an early age is setting them up for "body positivity" as a 300lb+ adult... And even if you are already older and fat, why not set your kids up for a a healthier lifestyle ?[/quote] Italians eat pasta nearly every day. [/quote] Asians have rice with their dinners most days. They are thin for the most part. Rice is similar to pasta. [/quote] True. But Asians also tend to eat lots of protein, beans, produce along with the rice. South Asians usually also have lentils/beans, produce and meat with their rice. So, a balanced diet has carbs, protein, veggies, fat etc. [/quote] One single meal served at a playdate depicts how a person's entire life is? It was one meal. Eat it and move on. The hysteria on this thread is insane. [/quote] Well, OP decided to host, and it is "poor" fare for serving to guests. She is not living in a cardboard box under a bridge. ALSO, the guest did keep quite after her surprise and ate this slop. You can eat whatever you want in your own house - plain pasta, rice with salt, dogfood - you just do not serve it to guests. That's all. No hysteria. Just mocking the OP for eating like it is a crisis and we are living in a place that is being bombed by US. Yes, we are slightly mean on this anonymous thread. What surprises me are the dysfunctional people on this thread who are doubling down and saying that this was a perfectly acceptable meal. :lol: :lol: :lol: Well, if that is so, can OP go to the sidewalk and pluck some dandelion leaves and put it with the buttered pasta and make it "guest worthy" like Martha Steward did with her meals when she was in prison? It is a GOOD thing!!![/quote] Have fun dying alone someday![/quote]
