    Whole Foods usually has them. And they're packed in water in the cold foods aisle, not in a box with the regular noodles. .:smile:

    All the stores in my area carry Shirataki Noodles--they're with the Tofu products. I love them in stir-fry.

    I went to a book signing party that Lisa (HungryGirl) had in my area--it was great--she spoke for a while, signed books and gave out lots of samples of different products. If you ever get the chance I highly recommend attending one.

    I was excited when I first saw these as well and had to buy some...the truth is they're nothing like real noodles and you're lying to yourself if you say they do. They taste like horrible firm flavorless jelly and they didn't fill me up at all...I would rather make a stir fry with just some yummy vegetables and maybe some tofu or something like that.

    Just had the Alfredo for lunch. The flavour is great, the texture is rubbery. Not sure it will be in regular rotation. I have less issue with the smaller noodles, more like itchiban noodles, still rubbery, but more tolerable. I usually make a spicy stir fry with them.

    Btw, in Canada, Safeway has them in the Tofu section usually 2 for $4.

    more importantly. Do they TASTE like pasta?

    No. They are like rubber bands soaked in a minnow bucket. Glad others like them but i would rather go without than eat those.

    I buy Carba-nada noodles. Much better NI then pasta and looks and tastes like pasta.

    They smell like fish, and they really have no taste until you add flavor to them.
    I hate fish, so I can't get past the horrible smell...



    If you rinse them the fishy smell is gone. I am glad I read about the smell and rinse or I wouldn't have used them. They are great!! :smile:

    I get mine at a place called Central Market and they are "Nooodles" & are great.

    1 packet of noodles, drained & rinced
    Add to pan with cooked chicken or beef
    Add 1 small diced tomatoe
    Add some jalapenos
    Stir & allow all the flavors to mix with the noodles
    Then pour in a bowl &
    Add 1 serving of WW mexican blend shredded cheese
    Add 1 serving of Wholly Guacamole

    You're soooo gonna love it.

    This is what I'm having for dinner. :)

    I also add ground cumin, garlic powder & onion powder to my liking

    My son used to get these at a japanese store
