It’s awesome product

First of all, these noodles are completely flavorless. The only purpose is to add filler to a meal so that you feel like you're eating something substantial. I just "discovered" them today. I ordered them for same day delivery, and I used them to make my dinner. I used the Food Wishes/Chef John video from YouTube to make his Creamy Bay Scallop Spaghetti. I've made it before with actual spaghetti, but this time I used these noodle instead of real spaghetti. It was DELICIOUS! These are absolutely a zero carb spaghetti replacement. The texture is slightly different than real spaghetti, but it's not unpleasant. In fact, I told my wife as I was eating my dinner that if I had grown up eating these noodles rather than spaghetti, I'd probably think spaghetti had a weird texture. These noodles are slightly springy, but not rubbery by any means. I put them into my sauce for the last few minutes as it was cooking, and the noodles absorbed the flavors of the sauce nicely. I have no doubt that I could invite company over for dinner, cook them this "pasta", and if I didn't tell them it was carb-free, FIVE CALORIE pasta, they would have no idea. This stuff is going to become my everyday pasta.

As a pasta substitute, this is a great low carbs option. Good to mix with your favorite veggies or protein.

I really like these when I first got them. Yeah, there was the expected fishy smell, but a good rinse in the strainer fixed that. I typically microwave them or boil them, then I add some oil or butter and a little flavoring of some type. Good stuff. The consistency is a little rubbery, but not overwhelming so. The spaghetti form and rice form are less rubbery, while the flat form is a little more rubbery, especially the clear flat form. Unfortunately, there's a dark side to shiritaki / konjac. If you eat a couple small packs of the noodles at once, you risk severe abdominal distress. The first time, I was in pain but couldn't swear that the noodles were at fault. The second time, I was certain of it. Both times, the distress occurred about 18 hours after eating the noodles and the pain was debilitating. All I could do was deal with the pain. The second time, I nearly went to the hospital. I was minutes away from going, but thankfully fell asleep while laying on my side on the floor (the only position that was bearable at the time). The pain felt like my stomach would split open. Picture the scene from Alien. Finally, after nearly 12 hours of misery, the pain abated enough to let me move around. Three days later, I still have mild pain, but it's gradually going away. Apparently this scenario occasionally occurs with others. I just searched for konjac stomach pain and there it was. I no longer recommend any shiritaki / konjac products. All of mine went in the trash. I hope this helps someone else avoid the same thing I went through.

Recommendation: If you want a keto noodle replacement, and don't mind a slightly different texture (or the higher price), buy these. Pros: * Pretty much a noodle aside from having a bit more springiness * No carbs * No flavor * Good fiber for binding (if you have health problems) * Doesn't seem to aggravate constipation or diarrhea Cons: * Expensive compared to noodles * Slightly different texture, but 95% a normal noodle More: Has pretty much no flavor with just rinsing it off. In most sauces, you'd think they were noodles, and might not notice anything off. If you concentrate on texture- they feel a bit more "gelatin" like compared to actual noodles- have some resistance to breaking, have a bit of springiness when pulling on them.

I have had to stop using rice, noodles and potatoes because of the Keto diet I am on. The diet has worked to pull me back from almost being diabetic, but food hasn't been as much fun. I love noodles and they are verboten to me. One of the nurses I was working with told me about the konjac noodles so I bought a couple boxes of them. When first opened, they did have a unpleasant odor, but I washed them in water and it was better. The noodles are tough. One reviewer said they tasted like worms. The noodles are plasticky and do feel like worms because they are tough. The are harder than regular noodles. I don't mind that they have no flavor, but the noodles rolling around in my mouth and feeling like worms is unpleasant. I really wanted this product to work for me as an acceptable alternative to real noodles, but if you can stand them, they may work for a substitute. They are better than no noodles at all, I suppose. Not sure I will try them again. Didn't like the texture.

Great for Asian recipes. Quick & easy --- just open a pack, rinse noodles and your good to go. Just need to add Veggies & I make a peanut sauce. So good in the hot Summer.
