Correct calories for shirataki noodles

Tatarataa

Does anyone know the correct calories for shirataki noodles? I am living in the US where they are assigned 0 cal per portion (which means up to 5 cal in reality). I am eating them a lot and in huge portions so I am wondering about their real calorie value. Maybe someone from Europe knows it? Or someone from the US or somewhere else? I do not mean the tofu shirataki, but the ones made without tofu. For the tofu shirataki, there is also a calorie value to count in the US as they are richer ins calories per serving.

Many thanks in advance!

According to calorie King website there are 2 calories in a 3 oz dry serving.

Don't stress about it. They literally range from 5-10 cals per serving. You'll burn that cooking them.

The tofu shirataki noodles have 5 calories in a serving. I just count the same when I'm eating the traditional ones. I was being on the safe side and putting aside 40 calories for two bags but lately I've just been allotting 20.

In Australia, I think it is listed as 10 calories/100 grams and it comes in 250 grams packs, so 25 calories total.
Not a lot but I still would count it.

This is for the tofu ones though, right?

Not sure if they are the tofu ones. I see some of the noodles marked as 8 calories/100 grams and some at 10 calories.
I've also noticed that some of the US products (not talking about the noodles) have been relabeled for NZ/Aus and the calorie count is always higher here than the US despite being the same serve size.
In Australia, even if something is under 5 calories per serve, it will be listed on the label. Even the Walden products here are listed as having around 4.5 calories per serve. The way some Youtubers use them but never seem to count them, they could easily be adding around 30 calories.

Are the tofu ones refrigerated? The ones I am talking about are sold on the shelf and I just had a look and the ingredients are listed as:
Ingredients: Purified Water, Konjac Flour (3.6%), Corn Flour, Rice Flour, Calcium Hydroxide (Mineral Salt, 526 ).
Hmm no soy or tofu mentioned.
