    I wasn't crazy about them. They made a weird noise when I bit into them and it was unsettling. I am in love with the Annie Chun organic noodles though. Not as low in calories, but low enough to make me fairly happy with using them.

    chicken noodle soup - serves 2

    1 pk shiritake noodles
    200g chicken (stir-fried in oil first)
    2 chicken stock cubes
    1 teaspoon miso paste
    broccoli
    mini sweet(yellow)corn
    mangetout
    carrot
    seaweed
    water (don't know how much, i just guess - the dog likes the rest in his dinner anyway)

    all thrown in a pot for about 10/15 mins.....gorgeous (sorry don't know how to look in my recipes while i'm doing this to show you the calories)


    remember to rinse them well first - they stink lol. really nice in a stir-fry too :)

    i'm in the UK but i get mine from the internet. i use japancentre but loads of japanese food websites do them - there are probably a few in Canada as well. stay away from the 'miracle noodles' though - they are exactly the same product for ridiculous prices.

    They definitely do smell funny! But they're good and I don't feel like a bunch of crap after I eat them. They keep you hungry for long enough and are great in stirfry dishes.

    These are awesome!! I put them in light alfredo sauce with chicken and broccoli. You really do have to wash them forever. I hate the way they smell! But, seriously an awesome food. I will have to check out the hungry girl website for some more recipes!

    chicken noodle soup is 382 cals when i log it - but 119 comes from the olive oil i use frying the chicken.

    it says in the instructions they don't need to be boiled but i've found the texture much nicer if they are.

    I just posted 2 recipes in 'my recipes' - one for Pad Thai and another for Sesame noodles - both using the shiritaki noodles. Once you've rinsed thoroughly in hot water they are the perfect alternative to pasta!!!
