There were several companies, colors, and variation in nutritional content. The one I decided upon was $1.09 for 4 oz (2 servings). They were…

I just got my FitBit yesterday. I'm sick today, so I barely moved all morning.It isn't even noon yet, and my Fit Bit is claiming I burned 757 calories.

0 calorie noodles?
I was just at the supermarket and saw yam noodles. Each variety is from 0-4 calories for a 3 ounce serving. Has anyone tried these? Are they any good, and are they as filling as regular noodles? Also, if you have recipes using these noodles, I would love to see them.
