52USA USDA Organic Konjac Shirataki Noodle, Low Carb Pasta 52.8 Oz, 6 Pack 3 Variety-Angel Hair, Fettuccine, Spaghetti Noodles, Keto and Paleo Friendly, Low Calorie, Sugar Free, Vegan, Ready to Eat

I was pleasantly surprised by these konjac noodles. The texture is different from traditional pasta, but once you add sauce or mix them into a stir-fry, they absorb the flavor really well. Overall, it’s a healthy and convenient alternative to traditional noodles and a nice way to diversify your menu without adding extra carbs

These noodles are awesome, but they're not miracle foods. They have key downsides you should be aware of. What are these: konjac noodles, or shirataki noodles, are noodle products made from the konjac yam. They are pure water and fiber and have almost no digestible carbs. A typical 8oz packet has like 15 calories. Compare this to an 8oz serving of spaghetti, which is like 400+ calories. They are an incredible way of getting that noodle fix when you're on a low-calorie diet. However, they have some notable flaws: 1. All konjac noodles are stored in a wet pack. Some companies use calcium hydroxide in that water, which makes it stink like old fish. A lot of cheaper brands do this; this brand doesn't, which is a huge advantage. 2. Konjac noodles are all fiber. Most people don't take that much fiber on a daily basis, so when you eat this, your digestive system might have a little trouble. Results in a lot of GI distress and a big trip to the bathroom the next day. If you've never had this before, I'd start with a trial run of 4oz before eating an entire 8oz pack. 3. The texture of these noodles is best described as "weirdly springy". They also have no flavor. They will never replace spaghetti, ramen, lo mein, or any traditional wheat based noodle product. I personally like it for what they are, but some people hate it. Your mileage may vary. I've been using these throughout my diet to get my noodle fix while keeping calories low. I use them to "cut" a traditional noodle dish. Instead of a huge plate of ramen, I do half ramen and half konjac noodles. Or instead of a huge garlic pasta plate, I do half pasta and half konjac. I actually prefer this, because the difference in texture adds a little variety to the dish. I never go above 8oz in one day due to the previously mentioned GI issues. The price is also reasonable; if you buy a 6 pack from a local Asian supermarket, you'll pay just as much as this, if not higher, for lower quality noodles. These noodles are an important tool to stay sane during my diet and make it sustainable. I'd recommend trying it if you've never had them before. Just be aware of the key issues up top.

I loved this variety pack. Very well packaged. The outer bag stands nicely on a shelf and the inner bag is well sealed and easy to open. These noodles didn't have much of a smell like some others. Noodles are visually pleasing and the chewiness of konjac is about average. Obviously the thicker pasta is more chewy. It is very filling and I split each bag into 2 servings. I love how easy and fast they are to prepare. A quick rinse under cold water and they are ready to throw into the pan. Worth the price. A great pasta substitute.

A friend got me turned onto these. I couldn’t believe that they taste really good and was so low in calories. I love them. I love that is organic. I love lettuce. It’s low car pasta and such a better alternative, if you’re trying to eat healthy and lose weight. This is a must have and they are very cheap and it’s abundant full after you cook them and it doesn’t even take very long to cook them.

I have intolerance to regular dried pasta like barilla, usually eat fresh or the rice noddles, wanted to try this as a low carb substitute. When prepared according to instructions, taste similar to the rice noodles so no issue for me. But then comes the horrifying stomach ache and inability to eat any other meal after! At first I thought it was fluke and may have been another ingredient I was sensitive to, but after my third pack ( weeks apart!) same stomach cramps and bad bloating :(. Did some reading up on konjac and turns out it’s a Japanese root that indigestible to the human body. Hence dear reader, proceed with caution and don’t go for it if you have a sensitive stomach like me.

Recommended for the Dukan Diet - easy to prepare and tastes great.

Texture is a little rubbery, not quite like wheat pasta, but the noodles really are flavorless, so any sauce you choose will work. This is a great way to have "pasta" if you're on Keto. These noodles are very low calorie with a little fiber and almost no net carbs. Also, these noodles require absolutely no cooking, just a two-minute microwave heat-up. Definitely, worth a try.

This is not delicious, but let's face it. Delicious is the food that got you fat to begin with. I just had these with my ground beef ragu style sauce and this cut a good 300 calories off of my meal. That is 300 calories you can spend on fat loss or 300 calories of dessert, whatever you prefer. They have no odor, even when taken out of the bag. The texture is more rubbery than traditional noodles. You have to actually chew instead of just crushing them against the roof of the mouth, but I did not mind it too much.

This is a great alternative to pasta. Tastes well. Great choice for people on a low carbs diet.

Great taste perfect potion

Rubbery. Stuck together. 3 minutes was definitely insufficient for cooking. I could not pull them apart. I was actually unable to eat them. Even after boiling for 20 minutes, Don’t waste your money.

Les meilleurs Shirataki que j'ai pu mangé jusqu'à maintenant. Je mets 4 étoiles parce que chaque paquet est vraiment petit, pas assez pour 2

Delicious and addicting and healthy. I need to buy them again. You just have rinse them for two seconds in a strainer like the instructions say to get them apart.
