Has anyone tried these? They're like pasta (kinda like shirataki noodles) with ZERO calories. It's made out of something called glucomannan that I guess is a fiber that your body cant break down into calories so it doesnt have any. they're kinda weird but for zero calories I'll take it! I made it with walden farms pasta sauce which is "zero calories" too so I figure a few tablespoons of that can't run more than 10 calories. good option for anyone who's low carb or just low calories and trying to fill up and/or misses pasta! the rice kind is my fave.

I did a while back but did not really care for the taste and texture. Then I started wondering why I am eating something that doesnt really benefit me any.

Yep, they actually are shiritaki noodles, and I'll agree that the rice cut is very good. I like the Angel Hair Pasta really well too. Fry up some shrimp and pour some Alfredo sauce over it all for a great low-carb, low-cal dish.

While not exactly "zero nutritional value", what it does is allow you to create a tasty, healthy, filling, satisfying meal while easily staying under your cal/carb numbers for the day. That's extremely useful.Originally Posted by jimmypage1stfan

yes. aka yam noodles
they also sell blocks of it with a similar texture to raw tofu
it basically has no taste,
but if you dont clean them first you will have a fish smell
when i was injured i was eating a lot of these to fill me up, but i dont think ill ever do it again lol.
by the way, they are not zero calories!!!
they are 5 cals per serving and usually theres 4 servings in a small bag. but still, very low cals.Drug free is the way to be (srs)
