help!! weighing food??

[kazb]

When weighing food on weight watchers for example rice do u weigh it b4 it is cooked or after??

I always do it before its cooked ...
10g of uncooked pasta or rice is 1pp for example
100g of raw potato is 2pp

Hi.. i asume it is. Is brown rice better than white rice and is ther much difference in the taste?

 

[pos bird]

They say brown rice is better for you as it is higher in fibre but the taste is definitely different. It can be more firmer in taste and takes a lot longer to cook.

I mite give it a try..r the points in brown rice the same as in white rice?
