depends.....my brother has Diabetes so he has to know all the carbs in everything but what are you comparing them to? How much are you having? They have a normal amount of carbs and if you are not diabetic, i wouldnt really care about how much carbs it has because your pancreas is producing insulin for yourself so it doesnt really matter as long as you have good healthy habits. (btw im 12)

Yes, pasta is indeed a starch. Starches are one of the three main variations of carbohydrates.This is because starches-also known as complex carbs-are polysaccharides, which essentially function as carbohydrate stores.

What climate does pasta grow best in?

Pasta is made of wheat and water, it is not grown as "pasta". Wheat needs 12 to 15 inches (31 to 38 centimeters) of water to produce a good crop. Wheat grows best when temperatures are warm, from 70° to 75° F (21° to 24° C), but not when it is too hot. Wheat crops also need a lot of sunshine, especially when the grains are forming. Areas with low humidity are better since many wheat diseases thrive in damp weather. North central United states, south central Canada and central plains of Russia are all ideal wheat growing areas. Durum wheat contains the hardest kernel of all wheat varieties and is used to make semolina. Semolina is used to make macaroni, spaghetti, and other pasta products. Durum is the best wheat for pasta products because of its excellent amber color and superior cooking quality. Durum wheat has strong gluten characteristics that form strong, non sticky doughs ideal for pasta processing and, in general, tends to produce pasta products with superior cooking characteristics.

Does pasta have fats and protein?

Pasta can be made differently, if you are buying store bought pasta, it usually is very processed which takes away the nutritional value, and their are many different homemade pasta recipes. I know of one, that contains 5 eggs and a cup of flour, AKA lot's of protein. Others may have no eggs and water. If you want pasta with protein, homemade pasta is delicious and surprisingly easy to make. A pasta machine can be bought, that simply flattens out the pasta dough, and cuts it into strips, that's what my family uses. The recipe we use has again, a lot of eggs and not a lot of carbs, so I recommend that one, and in my opinion, it tastes better than store bought pasta.

What is the nutritional value of pasta?

Pasta provides carbohydrates, especially starch and is low in protein and fat. Pasta also contains vitamins B1 and B2, as well as some minerals. During cooking some of the nutrients get lost either in the water or by heat, especially some starch, protein, phosphorous and vitamin B1. Given the difference in amino acid content in the protein fraction of pasta, in particular lysine (an essential amino acid), it is important that pasta is consumed together with other foods with different protein properties, to improve the nutritional value of the protein. The normal habit of consuming a portion of pasta together with a wide range of ingredients and/or sauces, enormously improves the overall nutritional value.
