I know it's not the same, but have you tried making rice noodles with marinara and parmesan?Rice and potatoes don't even come close to what pasta with marinara and parmesan cheese taste like Perhaps after becoming strong in digestive and metabolic health I'll be able to handle it every now and then :)
I actually just went through a packet of rice vermicelli, it was a nice change of pace from eating the grains themselves. I can’t see them replacing my beloved pasta, but they can hold for now. I also need to reexperiment with pasta now that I’ve cut out meat, as the combination of meat and grain may have been too much phosphorous and protein for my body to deal with at once. Then there’s always egg noodles too try also?
Rice vermicelli absorbs water very easily, and so it’s easy to cook them with too much water, as which is what happened with the packet I cooked, so I ate some soupy meals for a couple days
I think it’s very easy for my mineral status to go awry, as often I will feel unsatisfied from meals, as if I’m missing some nutrition even tho I’m physically full. The obvious answer is to use more vegetables, but I’ve also found that using a kale broth to cook into my rice is an easy way to add more minerals to a slightly nutrient lacking food, and it’s helped slightly with me feeling more content with my meals. I will be adding increasing amounts of steamed spinach today and see if that takes care of my problem.
Incorporating some of @Elephanto’s dietary regimen, I added some soaked lentils to my diet, which I find tasty in my bowls, and have helped my stools. However, unlike @Elephanto I made sure to include some cheese with it to balance the phosphorous content of lentils =P
Today should be an interesting day of eating. Lots to play around with for sure :)
Seems like their common feature is opioid triggering, which potatoes don't have (although they can be gut-irritating from their saponins and are among the most common triggers of reactions in IBS sufferers; probably well-supported when the intestinal barrier integrity is optimal).as for pasta it too is a favorite but probably similar to rice as far as performance.
Opioid receptor ligands derived from food proteins. - PubMed - NCBIwheat gluten, rice albumin
The spinach could have been a culprit imo.@jitsmonkey
..I noticed that this morning I had a delicious bowl of milk, rice Chex, and maple syrup, followed by raw spinach and oj. After all this my sinuses congested up, ..
@Runenight201 In any case, it seems like an already lost fight to base your diet on something you need to counter aggressively. Small trade-offs okay, but that one is the kind that has a determinant impact on your life imo. I don't even get sinus or histamine-related effects from opioids and I still find subtle ways they make me unoptimal.

I do all this and they still cause me problems, bloating, constipation and fatigue. It's too bad, cause I love potatoes. Certainly the fact that when I eat them, I eat them very quickly and probably don't chew them enough, doesn't helpb) I did resolve this with potatoes.
- I only eat them fresh never out of the fridge
- I boil the crap out of them, mashing them with a fork is super easy
- same as the other stuff you mentioned ie. salt, lil fat
