Shirataki Noodles: The Zero-Calorie ‘Miracle’ Noodles
So, my wife found that they sell these at WalMart, and I'm sure the local huge Asian grocery (big Vietnamese community here) has carries these noodles forever if we'd ever thought to look.
Anyone here have any experience with shirataki noodles? They're supposed to be calorie-neutral and pretty much just be composed of fiber and water (so, they lack natural starch?). We want to try them with Asian-type noodle dishes.
The article linked seems to be a sober source of info, but they make these noodles sound too good to be true (at least nutritionally).
