Miracle Noodles

Has anyone tried these? I was just wondering. If they are worth it or just a pile of gummy yuck. They do come in many shapes and sizes.

My friend loved them. I couldn't stand them. They are very filling, have no flavor but smell aweful. They are like tofu, they have to have some type of sauce to take on a flavor.

My go to food was pasta and bread. They are just way to filling. The ingredients sounded like they weren't as dense. I get the flavorless part, did you not like them because the filled up the sleeve? I was just curios if the were sleeve friendly.

I tried them, got the linguini version. They do smell, but if you wash them according to the package directions, the smell goes away. They were very very chewy, like a real tough gummy bear. But I couldn't take the slimy feel of the noodles. Many have been happy with the angle hair version, maybe the smaller noodles wouldn't feel so slimy.

I love the angel hair version! I usually add to a stir fry with Asian favors M

Does your sleeve like it too?

Does your sleeve like it too?

I haven't had it post op. I will have it when I can ave mushy foods though.

Miracle Noodles are shirataki noodles, which - if you have an Asian specialty market nearby - can be bought in their refrigerated section in single bags and cheaply (I pay about $2,00 per package). They definitely smell awful - like ammonia - but it rinses fairly well. I give them a few minutes in boiled Water, too, which helps make them less chewy and further minimizes the smell. I've mixed them into a stir-fry and have even attempted with marinara (the sauce doesn't stick well and gets watery, but it's not totally awful).

But to your specific question about being sleeve-friendly... for me, yes, they are, but I've been fortunate to find most things have been for me. Granted, I haven't tried more than a small bite of Pasta, so I can't compare, but since shirataki noodles don't expand or absorb boiling water, I can't imagine they'd expand in your sleeve. See if you can find a single package locally and give them a try. If your sleeve and/or palate doesn't like them, it's only a couple of bucks down the drain.

Thanks. I was thinking that they'd do well with saucy stuff. Maybe more with Soup or stir fry. It seems like you don't need much. I just know for me Pasta, bread and rice are worth a bite to taste and that's about it. I thought these noodles weren't dense. I

I appreciate all of the feedback. I know I'll try them just to see and go from there.

Thanks

There is a groupon for these noodles this week.

Link please or city!
