Where do I find this product? Does Wal-mart carry this??? I would like to know of stores that are not online. We have Harris Teeter, Bi-Lo, Winn-Dixie and Lowes Foods in my area. Has any seen this product at one of these stores? Thanks

I buy it at Winn Dixie and Super-Walmart (here in Panama City, FL). If your stores don't have it, you can request it from the manager.

We love this stuff!

I found my at super wal-mart
but it was not in the same Isle (guess thats how you spell it )as the high carb pasta
the end of one Isle about 8 foot wide is for lowcarb
for some reason i just happen to notice on the other side of the Isle there was the dreamfields pasta

I bought it at WalMart, but it made my blood sugar rise just like regular pasta. So be careful with it.

dreamfields is a your milage may very product... for some its wonderfull for others its like eating regualr stuff.... so just be carefull and if you are going to test it try it 1/2 a serving and see how your body reacts to it.. If you are one w/ super senitive sugar this isnt the thing for you beacuse it will effect you!

I bought it at my super walmart also but at my walmart it was in the regular pasta isle..

Hope it works for you... just dont over do it and measure your amounts you dont want to send your self back in to a stuffing your self and eat it w/ some kind of protein

I bought it at my local super market, it was in the pasta aisle with all the "regular" pastas. However the super market I usually go to doesn't carry it so I make a special trip to the one that does.

I would be REALLY careful with this stuff.

We finally tried it tonight (found it at my local Vons just down the street) and yes, it was good, TOO good.

Upon inspecting the label, I see that it said 42 total carbs, 37 "controlled carbs" and a net of 5 carbs.

Controlled carbs? Where?

I see a listing for 4 fibers which, in my mind, puts the net carbs at 38 grams per serving but NO WHERE do I see 37 carbs accounted for in a way that they can be ignored.

With all that said, I ate a serving with a cream sauce and shrimp and it's NOT making my heart race or making me feel fluttered like regular pasta would. Also, it DOES have 3 more grams of fiber than regular pasta BUT, still, I don't think it's quite as low carb as they like to claim.

I'd really like to hear their explanation for the 37 grams of "controlled carbs"

I went to their web site. They don't explain. It's a "secret." The magic is lost on my metabolism. My blood sugar levels reacted just as if it were regular pasta.

I now think of it as "Pipedream" pasta. Not part of my menu.

Oh wait: Here's an explanation from Rick Mendosa. This is really interesting. If there is anything to this "new technology," it must again be one of those YMMV things.....

Maybe I won't toss the package after all.

I tried it, I liked it, I didn't suffer any ill effects from it - they DO say if you are particularly sensitive to carbs you may get a spike from it.

DH also ate it, he's pretty insulin resistant but this didn't seem to bother him.

We DID stick to a serving size each though, I only cooked 4 oz. of it - 2 oz. each dry weight - and it made a nice serving when cooked. We also ate it WITH plenty of protein and I tossed it with homemade pesto, which of course has lots of olive oil and grated cheese in it.

We'll only have it occasionally but with no ill effects we CAN eat it every now and again!

Well, I was up 2 pounds this morning so I'll be avoiding it for now. It might be fine for maintenance but not for weight loss. At least, not for me.

Im a type 1 diabetic on an insulin pump and have used this product for about 6 months. I have had NO increase in my blood glucose levels as long as I use a measured single serving and cover with the appropriate amount of insulin (based on the sauce, net carb of pasta and any other carby ingredients I might have)

Its the most "normal" tasting pasta product out there. Regular pasta would keep my sugar high for hours...

Just my 2 cents worth

Pipedream pasta! That's a good one!

We've done fine with it too. I'm hypoglycemic and it hasn't bothered my blood sugar. I still lost weight when using it too. The only thing I've noticed is that SOMETIMES (not everytime) it, um, makes me visit the bathroom the next morning several times. But that doesn't always happen. I hope they come out with lasagna noodles soon!
