I've never tried spaghetti squash before, but heard about it and how everyone like to use it instead of pasta, so I decided to jump in and try it. After roasting the squash in the oven I tasted it for the first time, I felt they are more like shredded potatoes but with a faint hint of sweetness, I like that. But comparing it to pasta felt not right, I mean pasta is pasta loved as is and enjoyed as is with all its calories. On the other hand spaghetti squash is a delicious vegetable that looks like pasta but has its unique characteristics, so squash is squash, has always been squash and will always be squash and should be enjoyed as squash. this is just my humble opinion on the matter. I hope that's ok with you.
