Instead of measuring out your pasta, have you considered switching to Linux?
What’s Linux?
What he meant was GNU/Spaghetti
Jokes aside, it’s an operating system alternative to Windows. The Steam Deck gaming handheld runs Linux. It’s a free and open software.
1g per 1kg of your weight. So for someone who weighs 100kg you use 100g of pasta.
hold on i’m doing weed maths
alexa how much do i weigh
no in kilograms
dammit math is hard when you’re high
If you are a guy then its an easy measurement. Make an o with your finger and thumb the girth of your erect dick. That’s your dick width of pasta serving. No more. No less!
I never make less than a whole box

I prepare 500g of this for 3 people, and that’s just the raw pasta, not including the cheese, garlic, oil etc.
I prepare that for two people and it’s nearly not enough (it’s enough if you also make a salad). And we have normal weight.
Get some containers and keep leftovers. Cooking more than you will eat in one sitting saves your future self some work.
A single 16oz (1lb) bag is enough for 4-5 people.
Not sure why you used imperial twice but that’s around 450g
Because cooking is an art, not a science, so I use my heart not my brain. 😌
between 70-500g per person. Hope it helps.
So between a light snack and “I want people to think I’m pregnant.”
I feel like a fatass because I never need to measure spaghetti. One box is two servings.
Cook it all. Save what you don’t eat in a sealed container in the refrigerator. Cooked noodles are so useful. Fry them with chili paste, yum yum! Make peanut sauce and eat them cold. Even just tossed with sesame oil and salt they are pretty good.
Be careful with this.
Turned pasta is really dangerous and hard to notice as it doesn’t have an awful smell or look like other foods when bacteria settles.
It goes straight into the fridge, been doing this for over 30 years with no problem. I don’t save half eaten pasta, just split it after it’s cooked.
This. Also toss it evenly with some olive oil before you put it in the fridge. Will delay the concrete phase by a lot
You just don’t know how much to eat.
I keep seeing variations of this theme. My mom always does the opposite. Like 12 people are coming over for thanksgiving or Christmas and she makes one little bag of noodles.
I have the amounts and cooking time written under the lid of each food item so that I don’t need to ever think how much I need.
Can never make too much pasta. Better too much than too little. Can always throw the leftovers in the fridge and microwave it the day after or make a lunch box. Of course, if you are struggling with overeating, then idk. Make to little maybe.
This is bizarre to me, I have literally never had this problem. Even if you don’t have a scale, pasta is sold in standardized package weights and recipes have the weight you need so like if it says 12 oz then that’s 3/4 of a 1 lb package. Then again, I always just scale the recipe to the full pound of pasta anyway because it’s easier to deal with instead of just having 4 oz of pasta sitting around trying to figure out what to do with.
You use a receipt for cooking spaghetti?
Well actually I guess I should too, to avoid the problem…
