Fantastic low carb rice replacement with a few things to know! I really love shiritake/Konjac products as low carb/calorie starch replacements and this product is no exception, however, there are a few things folks should know when using them. The first word is rinse rinse rinse. You'll notice that all shiritake products come packed in water and have a notable fishy funk. This can be very easily removed by thoroughly rinsing with cold water in a strainer. Specific to this product is the shape. It's advertised as a rice replacement, and while it certainly serves that purpose to an extent, I've found that it really feels a bit more like quinoa in terms of its size and shape, or perhaps a very very short grain rice. Like all shiritake products, it's basically completely flavorless, and that's a good thing! It's a blank canvas that allows you to add the flavorings and seasonings of your choice, which it takes on extremely well and means it can be used in a wide range of cuisines. So far, I've used it to make Thai style peanut fried rice, a mushroom risotto like dish, a rice salad and as an accompaniment to some Indian spiced chicken. Do also bear in mind that you're not going to get the super fluffy quality you get from traditional rice, again, it's more like a grain in that respect. Overall, if you're looking for a starch replacement that's low calorie, diverse and flexible, this really is a fantastic product. It's quick and easy to prepare and helps it feel like you're not missing out on your favorite parts of a complete meal when eating in a calorie deficit.

this product is edible but it is more like wet gummy bears than noodles in consistency. I did eat them but they did need rinsing and drying before eating. They did not soak up flavor from sauces and kind of stayed slippery and distinct but they were filling and did not get hung up in digestion...so they could be considered an expensive sort of low calorie filler but are not really ideal food as a stand alone. I would consider it again for weigh loss only but not great on their own. Rice texture probably the best cause they can be swallowed as is more or less in a soup or other dish where it just blends in.

Nice

After following the instruction on the packet, and draining the angle hair, then soaking it in hot water, i was left with 2 tablespoons of mush from a full packet. not a meal, but a waste of money. Really regret that i bought a 6 pack of this worthless crap. go with another brand.

I didn't realize there was so much prep. I thought I could just put it in a bowl and heat it up.

There was a diet change in our household that needed a rice replacement. Rice is very high in carbs.The texture is a bit different and the flavor is bland by itself. Once I added it to our stir fry, it worked very well. It was easy to use too.

I have shopped everywhere and tried all sorts of brands. Not sure how they're so different. This one is my favorite though. Healthiest snack you can eat. Its filling too. Absolutely give it a try at the price.

Not bad for the low calories, bit take a little getting used to. Don't skip the part of the directions where it says to dry them with a paper toewl after rinsed. I just drained them thinking it would be the same and it made my peanut sauce watery.
