Detailed explanation-1: -Starchy foods are our main source of carbohydrate and have an important role in a healthy diet. Starchy foods – such as potatoes, bread, rice, pasta, and cereals – should make up just over a third of the food you eat, as shown by the Eatwell Guide.
Detailed explanation-2: -"In terms of carbohydrate content, we have 42g of carbohydrate in the cup of pasta and about 30g in a [serving] of bread."
Detailed explanation-3: -Bread is a generally leavened (yeast, sourdough, artificial levener) doug baked in an oven. A flatbread could be levened or not, and could be baked or cooked on a griddle. Pasta is unleavened dough boiled in water.
Detailed explanation-4: -Pasta is high in carbs, which can be bad for you when consumed in large amounts. It also contains gluten, a type of protein that causes issues for those who are gluten-sensitive. On the other hand, pasta can provide some nutrients that are important to health.
