You may have heard someone say (or maybe experienced yourself) that when dining in Italy, the pasta doesn't cause bloating the way it does in the United States. Italian-American chef Giada De Laurentiis, who produces her own pasta line through her brand, Giadzy, recently shared her theory on why that might be on the "No Matcha No Mama" podcast.
According to De Laurentiis, multiple factors are involved, beginning with the wheat. She explained how imported pasta from her brand (and others) is single sourced from Abruzzo, an agriculturally focused region in Italy known for producing high-quality durum wheat semolina for pasta.
