These are great: just rinse them (they have a slight pong, being packed in water, but that disappears as soon as you rinse them); then use them cold in salads or pour some boiling water on them, drain and use in soups or any other way you would use noodles.  The secret is that the carbohydrate in them comprises all soluble fibre, which is not absorbed by the gut, so has no effect on blood glucose.  The link you sent refers to the making-you-feel-full effect as if it's a bit magical, but it's just that it provides some bulk without calories or carbs.I don't read the Daily Mail, so I'm really glad you pointed out the article: I had to stop having rice (even wholemeal basmati) with my Friday night chilli, so I'll definitely give these a try!
