Does anyone know where you can buy these? What stores carry them, also in what section of the store?

    I know that Whole Foods carries them but also my local grocery carries them in the organic section of the fresh produce.

    I don't know where you live, but I just bought some tonight from Metro, our regional chain grocery store. I've seen them at Asian supermarkets too. It was in the general tofu section. I can't wait to try them!!

    BTW...I'm not a fan of these but my sister loves them. Make sure you rinse them REALLLLLY well because they have a funky fishy smell to them. Pat them dry them well with a paper towel before you use them.

    they are usually in the refrigerated section near the produce or vegan products.
    I know whole foods has them, as well as stop and shop or shaw's or publix.
    or you can order them online.

    Under my desk at work? Seriously I bought a ton from www.miraclenoodle.com and the only variety of it I like is the rice.

    I looked everywhere for these and couldn't find them in any store. Then, today at the supermarket a block from my house, there they are sitting in the tofu section...

    I LOOOOOVE shirataki noodles! In Atlanta, I get them at Whole Foods or Kroger.

    You can certainly get them online: http://www.shiratakinoodles.net/

    Rinse, drain, and throw them in whatever pan or sauce you're using for your protein and vegetables so they can soak up the flavor, or add a little toasted sesame oil, ponzu, or whatever floats your boat.

    40 calories for 8 oz versus 200 for "real" pasta? What in the world could possibly go wrong????

    In Australia, they are sold under the name Slim Pasta. They make Angel Hair, Spaghetti, Fettuccine and Noodles. I just had some for lunch. They are very tasteless so make sure you are pairing them with something tasty

    What's the deal with these? This is not the first mention of these I've seen in the last few days, never heard of them.

    They are used in alot of recipes for Hungry Girl.

    I found mine in the produce section, over by the salad dressings and refrigerated egg roll wraps at Kroger

    Safeway also has them. I bought some, took one taste, and tossed 'em. Spaghetti squash is my new friend when I need noodles.

    I love them for making Asian noodles (agree with making sure you rinse them well), but for me they are just not tasty for "spaghetti". I also get mine from Whole Foods though not in the refrigerated section

    I did the same thing. Barely got past the smell. They're repulsive to me :/

    Not sure where you live, but I am in texas and here I have found them at the bigger HEB stores in the produce section where they have the tofu, I have also found it at Fiesta grocery stores and it is cheaper.

    Miracle noodle is a great brand.. The angel hair kind makes awesome stir fry if you boil some chicken and veggies in low sodium chicken broth and toss them in with a little low sodium soy and a little of the broth, then finish it off with lemon juice.. It resembles a Filipino dish called ponsit.. Delicious! IMPORTANT!!!!!! Don't forget to rinse the noodles in a collender and dry them with a towel and fry the shirataki noodles in a pan first before you put it into the stir fry, add the soy when done frying the moisture out to give them flavor!
