What is the name of those noodles with very low calories?

I know they begin with S? its escaping me and i want to try them as my regular 70 calorie noodle packets are getting harder and harder to find.
Its not a brand, its a type. I think they're found in chinese food stores?

    You can get them in your local supermarket in the produce section near the tofu.

    Ok will have to check out Slim pasta but for something else Trident Rice Vermicelli is great to. Great for Asian inspired dishes. At 97 calories per 100 gram its very filling. Which is enough for a meal you will find. I added Aldi Just organic basil and pasta sauce with mine and some light cheese. But also great with a base of chilli paste, fresh ginger, fresh garlic, prawns, bok choy, bean shoots, broccoli and chicken stock. No need to cook the noodles just pour boiling water over them cooks in no time. Very quick and filling meal.
