Hi erm,
Even if it's gluten free? The reason I ask is that they are all made of different flours an flour combinations and I want to get this right so I don't undo all of my hard work.

Feeling very blue so am being very cautious

I would have thought so because all flour is pretty much the same syns anyway. Its just that pasta is one way you can eat flour for free tbh

 

[ermintrude]

Ive just run a couple through the calculator and they're coming out as free whether I use pasta or rice as a free food so I dont think theres any problem

Oh sorry I see Rorah already did that Sorry Rorah!

Pasta is just made of ground durum wheat/semolina, using rice flour or any other flour shouldn't make any difference, theyre all about the same calories wise
