I really like them but you need to rinse to get rid of fishy smell however no fishy taste whatsoever.As title. Found them in tesco. Noodles made with konjac flour.
No fat, (0.1)
no carb (0.9g/100g)
Sugars (0.1)
Fibre (3.9)
So I'm going to give them a go tonight for dinner.
2 quid for 250g.
There are various konjac / shiritaki noodles, rice and pastas. Ocado and (I believe) holland & barret have them on a half price offer at the moment

Konjac is seen as a health food in japanese aan some other easter cultures for centuries - this is a summary from a Wester perspective

You might want to try Oomi Noodles, Sainsbury's and others sell them, they are made with fish protein rather than Konjac but don't smell or taste fishy. I think they are much better, although a small portion of ordinary egg noodles might be ok if you test.Wow. Every day is a school day. As someone who makes a lot of Chinese style food this is a real bonus for me.

They are made from a largly indigestible vegatable corm / root and are full of soluble fibre. They act as a very good fibre source and flavouless carrier for sauces / stir fries etc for a low carb, low cal, high fibre mealHi @Spl@, You do not mention protein content. With very little carbs, no fat and some fibre they do not, at first sight, seem much of a food !!
Didn't mention it cos its all but zero. But drenched in a thick chop suey style sauce, cabbage (cut thin) sugar snaps, baby corn, peppers, onion, mushrooms and some stir fried pork it's delicious.Hi @Spl@, You do not mention protein content.
