Pastalaya is more consistently "good". Jambalaya has a better chance of being "great" or "mediocre". Think about comparing a Saints regular season game in the dome to a Tiger's regular season game in Death Valley. The Super Dome is just about always "good", it's rarely if ever bad and only once in a while is awe inspiring. Death Valley is more often awe inspiringly awesome, but for ever Bama game there are 3 FCS or sunbelt opponents (Towson, Idaho, ULL, Troy, The Citadel, North Texas, ect).

Pastalaya is harder to screw up by far. Both are very very good.

There is no option here. The only answer is jambalaya. Pastalaya is an abomination and insult to both Cajun and Italian heritages. Also is an insult to rice.

I had my first and assumably last taste of pastalaya a few weeks ago. It was a very bad moment with my taste buds, and the texture was horrendous.

Jambalaya is where it is at. This type of dish is a rice dish. Pastalaya is about as good a rice and meatballs

Minute rice is the key to a good jambalaya and nobody can tell you used it

Sounds like you're saying pastalaya is harder to frick up, where as jambalaya might actually require some skill to execute. Hmmmmm, this may explain the popularity of pastalaya.
