Any news on their rice?
Nicky.
Friday, August 17, 2007 at 05:05 PMI love Dreamfields pasta, and so long as I'm careful not to overcook it or eat reheated portions, so does my meter. I'm sure I remember seeing somewhere that they were working on rice - do you know how that's going?

Pasta

I love Dreamfields pasta. Thanks for sharing the details as to why it is so kind to my sugar level. I hope they keep making it forever. They should really do more advertising aimed toward diabetics. There sure are a lot of us out there! I would be glad to be a spokesperson anytime. I recommend it to everyone, diabetic or not!!!

Dreamfields Pasta

Saturday, September 01, 2007 at 04:22 PMDreamfields is an outstanding pasta. In my Oregon town of 50,000 I only see it on the shelf in one chain and they've reduced their selection. Today I'm off to find shirataki noodles another totally different Asian noodle also almost carb free. -

Saturday, September 01, 2007 at 04:41 PMI too find that Dreamfields is 'friendly' the first time around but not on leftovers. Alas I love to make macaroni salad or Am. chop suey in 3-4 day batches, the later servings seeming even tastier as flavors blend. I can no longer do that, but it is a treat even if I DO have to make only one serving at a time. -
counting carbs

Monday, October 01, 2007 at 08:18 PMIm confused. If there are 5 "net" carbs but 47 carbs listed on the package, how do I dose my insulin. Thats a difference of 4 units of humalog.re: counting carbs

Tuesday, October 02, 2007 at 06:47 AMMost of the carbs in a serving of Dreamfields Pasta aren't absorbed. All 42 grams of carbohydrates are in a serving of pasta. However, they protect most of carbohydrates from being digested by using a unique formula and patent pending process; this protects all but 5 grams of carbohydrates from being absorbed. -
Your products

Wednesday, February 11, 2009 at 09:58 AMI started using your products a couple of years ago because of my diabetes and I enjoy them very much. However, when I purchased them a few months ago and realized that you have not only made your packaging smaller but you also raised your prices.I know that it seems like most companies are doing the same thing but I also realize that consumers are also tired of being treated as if they are stupid and won't notice, and that consumers don't care. I am not one of those consumers and I have stopped buying your products and I hope that others will do the same.I am 70 years old and I realize that I am not going to break your company ,but I can no longer afford to buy your products. I will find another way. Thank Yoy!!

Wednesday, February 11, 2009 at 12:45 PMDear Robert,
Thanks for writing and bringing up these questions. It helps to clear the air.
First, however, I have to say that Dreamfields Pasta is NOT a product of mine. I don't have ANY products. I am a journalist and I write and write only about diabetes and how to control it. Dreamfields Foods is a separate company in Carrington, North Dakota, that I have NO OTHER connection with.
I do believe that Dreamfields has a product that many people with diabetes can and do appreciate. I have been happy to have introduced it to the diabetes community.
You are correct that Dreamfields did reduce the size of the package, but they did not increase the cost. And most of the other "healthy pastas" like Barilla Plus and Healthy Harvest were already in a package that was less than 16 ounces when they made that change in package size.
Dreamfields did not increase the price to the stores. So any increase in the shelf price was a choice the store made, which the company doesn't control.
Even though Dreamfields Pasta is not MY PRODUCT, I was concerned enough about your message that I wrote the president of the company. His name is Mike Crowley, and this is his reply:
"We apologize for any inconvenience our change in product weight may have caused. We needed to make this carton weight adjustment to Dreamfields Pasta in order to compensate for the increases in our cost of ingredients and transportation. This is the first adjustment we have made to the overall per-ounce cost of Dreamfields since its introduction in 2004.
"We decided to adjust the carton weight, rather than increasing the price, because we know that increasing food prices throughout the grocery store puts a strain on your weekly budget. We hope you continue to enjoy Dreamfields and invite you to take advantage of the discount coupon we offer online at www.dreamfieldsfoods.com. We can also mail a coupon to you if your store does not yet take online coupons or you have trouble printing the on-line coupon, simply contact us at sales@dreamfieldsfoods.com."
I hope that this helps!
Best regards,
David
