Pasta cooked "al dente" has less impact on blood glucose than pasta cooked through. "Al dente" literally means "to the tooth," and can be best translated as "chewy."
Hmm... that could be the reason that my readings are all over the place when I have spaghetti and pasta. when I carefully measure out 1 oz. of pasta (about 21g of carbs) and have about a 1/4 cup of sauce along with 2 meatballs, me readings are all over the place from 120 to 140. it maybe because of the way it is cooked.
