Barenaked Konjac Noodles | 6 x 250g Multipack | Low Calorie Noodles | Vegan & Gluten Free | Fat Free & Low Carb | 12 Servings (250 g (Pack of 6), Protein Noodles)

So if you are aware of what konjac noodles are like, then these are definitely the best i have tasted so far. And they are great if like me, you are trying to cut down on carbs.However, if you're not familiar with konjac noodles, then there are a few things that you need to know..... Don't for one second think that they will be like normal noodles! Yes, they are long and thin and edible, but thats where the resemblance to a normal noodle ends.When you first open the packet, there will be a terrible smell. The instructions advise you to cut a corner off the packet and rinse the noodles. I would advise to have your sieve ready under a fully running cold tap, then hold your breath as you rinse them thoroughly. Once rinsed, you can breathe again and cook.You also need to be aware of the wierd texture. Its kind of like a snappy, rubbery texture, maybe like a rubber water chestnut... They also don't really separate in the pan so you will have a blob of noodles swimming in your sauce. And since the noodles have no taste, you will also need plenty of sauce.So in summary these are the best konjac noodles and can really help you to lose weight. Just get familiar with the wierd texture, initial smell, tasteless taste & inability to mix easily. I found that just swallowing any konjac noodle is the best way to eat them, and they actually really do fill you up. Maybe esp as these ones contain protein. I'd definitely buy these again, but give me real noodles on non-diet days!

Instead of 6 you get 1 and not able to return or get money backAvoid

I get it. These aren't for everyone. Frankly, unless you are on an extremely low carb diet, there are going to be better, tastier options out there.I keep my carbs low. Seriously low. Not had a slice of bread in 15 years low. So, naturally, I crave carbs. As I enjoy the mouth feel of spaghetti/noodles, these seemed like the perfect product.These have been around for years now, maybe 8 years or so. When I first heard of them, I ran a fitness blog so contacted the company who sent me some to try and review. At the time I ate meat so made a low carb Chinese with them and gave them the thumbs up. However, long after giving up the blog, I use my hard earned cash to buy them.They will take on some of the flavour of whatever they are cooked in and it is best for them to be a part of the meal (as opposed to being apart from the meal). On their own - if you rinse them - they don't really taste of much at all. I am used to them now so do not find the taste nor texture odd, but I would imagine if you went straight from pasta to this, you might.I have tried all the low carb noodles out there and these are the best. They are a bit thicker, so more satisfying but, better than that, they do not clump together like others do. You can pull out each strand.I've been plant-based a couple of years now, so my protein sources are limited. ANY extra protein is a bonus. Sure, they aren't high in protein, but the comparison is not with a lump of steak, but with their other product. It is to differentiate. Those that complain are merely being churlish.After rinsing, I heat them in a microwave for two minutes after mixing in some tomato puree. This then gets added to my wok which has onions, mushrooms, tomatoes - seasoned with soy sauce, parsley and turmeric - before adding whichever protein source I am using then some spinach leaves. For someone that lived 10 years just eating chicken breasts, this is a taste explosion in my mouth!To summarise: If you are on a diet or want to limit your carb intake, give them a try. If you are simply looking for an alternative to pasta with no alterior motive, they will no doubt disappoint.

Didn't like it. Fishy aroma

This new formula is better than previous but it does mean more calories in the product. Used to be 30cals per whole pack, now 52cals. No big shakes though! Fills you up beautifully! Great if you're trying to lose weight. Simply serve with some soy sauce, or low cal sauce for a very tasty, quick, low cal meal!

Have rinsed before using. Good replacement for rice/egg noodles in stir fries and ramen in low carb diets. No taste, so needs to be with something that has flavour

This order arrived very quickly and is so useful when you are trying to lose weight. Low calories and tastes good too

The noodles arrived in reasonable time and I had purchased them as an experiment since I am trying to eat a low carb diet. They are a great product for this purpose, unfortunately they made me ill. Problem with my ability to tolerate the ingredients.
