white spaghetti is better then brown rice

[Nomak666]

the glycemic index for spaghetti is 41 while the glycemic index for brown rice is 55. how is that possible. it is said that the white spaghetti has a low effect on blood-sugar levels(insulin spikes), so why does everyone still use brown rice. white rice is at 61, so that would make it a moderate-high gi carb.

Are you sure that's not whole grain spaghetti? That's odd if true

Italian food is the shit though, when I go to an italian restaurant I can crush everything in sight. If I did that all the time I would definitely be FAT
