[QUOTE="shelley262, post: 1717220, member: 455169"] Hi I nearly bought some of this on a shopping trip after seeing them mentioned but luckily checked and was put off by the 8.4 carb on the box. Just checked nutrition on Ocado site and it comes up as 8.4 there too - wonder if it’s the bean gum and/ or tapioca starch that’s used because think Konjac is zero carb so maybe another ingredient like the bean used to prepare the rice. Too high carb for me. Fibre is listed separately so this isn’t part of the carb count.The slim rice must be different to the noodles Edit says konjac is only 3% of the rice so presume tapioca starch is a biggish ingredient. There must be different versions made with different fillers. Saw one on amazon just that mixed with oat fibre rather than tapioca guess you’ve got the tapioca one that I saw shows we have to double check with these clever marketeers! It’s more of a problem too with age checking out all those pesky small print nutrition boxes!o [URL]https://www.ocado.com/webshop/product/Eat-Water-Slim-Rice/88615011[/URL] [/QUOTE]
