Trying to settle a dispute- which carb is the best?

Pasta or potato?

Go!

Rice
Then pasta
Then potatoes
Good chips and crisps can be better though

Potato.

Cheesy mash is the best thing ever.

Potato
I'm about 40% potato at this point. If I carry on this way I will probably be more potato than person.

Potato
pasta will rarely have it but potato 100%

Bread over either of them any day of any week.

I’m not in the slightest bit hungry but I’m now craving some buttery mash.

The potato

I love pasta but potatoes are just amazing 🤩

Potato. Much more versatile.

Plus, I don't really like pasta. 😊

Pasta.

I am so shocked so many people are saying pasta.

It HAS to be potato

Potato. Would rather never have pasta again than give up chips, roast potatoes and jacket potatoes.

You are all BU - rice is the best. That is all.

Potatoes. So versatile

Potatoes because its one of the few foods I can eat in multiple forms without finding a substitute

Thank you! I think my point has been proved- potatoes are by far superior 😂

My sister and I have been arguing about this for years- little things🤣🤣

Oh and to those of tou who said rice or bread, shame on you!

OMG this like choosing your favourite child!! You're not meant to have a favourite

It's a potato for me. Quite like pasta but could live easily without it. Mashed spuds on the other hand ❤

Potatoes because of crisps.

Trust a typical MN food miser to be the first to answer .

I'm pasta all the way. Love a roastie with my Sunday lunch, and the occasional baked potato is a nice treat. I could eat pasta almost every dinnertime though. With garlic bread on the side (don't faint, low carbers).

Potatoes are better because they are more versatile. With pasta you're stuck with macaroni cheese, pasta bake with fusilli in a tomato sauce, and possibly spaghetti bolognese - no other form of pasta is acceptable.

Potatoes have so many varieties and uses. Salad potatoes, roast, mash, new potatoes, chips, wedges, waffles, fries, crisps, the list is endless. Whereas pasta can only be used in three specific configurations, potatoes go with just about anything.

Way too simplistic a question. For example my MIL roasties vs pasta- potatoes win
DM or my roasties vs pasta - pasta wins

Pasta is so easy and yum and filling. Potatoes can be sooooo good or so bad. I don't know what's wrong with me but I cannot boil a potato. Raw on the inside and flaky on the outside.
