I disagree with some of that being unhealthy. I think a fair bit of it is based on the glycemic index BS which is just the stupid fad diet base of the last few years... Most people don't even really understand what it means. Worried about pasta being too high glycemic index - cook it less, now it will digest slower and be lower index... not that it really matters unless you are diabetic or need to "feel full" longer so that you don't stuff your gullet.
