Barbara Hawk Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hi, I read the rules about pasta and it says only if it is 100% veggie. ZENB pasta has only one ingredient which is whole yellow peas with skin. (www.zenb.com/collections/zenb-pasta). Before I purchase any I want to be sure it is compliant. HELP! And thank you!!

Moderators ShannonM816 Posted January 27, 2021 Moderators Share Posted January 27, 2021 So, if you check the rules about re-creating baked goods, it says this: Quote *Some specific foods that fall under this rule include: pancakes, crepes, waffles, bread, tortillas, biscuits, muffins, cupcakes, cookies, brownies, alternative flour pizza crust or pastas, That's from this page: https://whole30.com/whole30-program-rules/ When we say pasta that's 100% vegetable, we typically mean if you use a spiralizer or food processor to cut your vegetable into noodle-like shapes. What this company has done is probably ground dried peas into flour, and then made pasta out of that -- they definitely didn't just spiralize some peas. So I'm going to say thos is a no while you're on Whole30, though it might work great afterwards if you find you feel better without grains.

I figured as much, but I wanted to be sure. I have already turned my gluten free and vegan friends on to this pasta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
