Great replacement for traditional pasta!
After not being able to eat pasta on my low carb diet, I decided to order Skinny Pasta. I didn’t know what to expect and I was so happy to discover that I love this product! It comes precooked in sealed pouches and the noodles have zero unpleasant odor. When mixed with sauces, Skinny Pasta provides a wonderful alternative to high carb high calorie traditional pasta. The noodles take on the flavor of the sauce and they are also very filling for almost zero calories. This product is perfect for diabetics, Keto and low carb dieters, and anyone following the Weight Watcher’s program. While Skinny Noodles are smaller and have a slightly different texture than traditional pasta, they are an absolutely wonderful pasta replacement for persons who want to reduce carbs or lose weight. Just remember to mix them with sauces to add flavor to them. I have already reordered this product twice and hope that Skinny Pasta remains on the market permanently!

Healthy and delicious
Being keto is difficult when you love carbs, and I’ve always struggled to find good low/no carb pasta substitutes to still enjoy a semblance of my favorite meals. The texture of spaghetti squash and zoodles is too watery and vegetable-y, I’ve never felt they carry sauce that well, and they are so time consuming to prepare.Enter: Skinny Pasta konjac noodles. Not only are these beyond healthy and low carb - they are SO easy to prepare, carry flavor wonderfully, and when done correctly, have a texture that’s very very comparable to normal glass noodles, making them always worth it to prepare and truly able to curb those cravings.Even though they’re already cooked, I like to boil them for 3 minutes to achieve optimum texture - it softens the noodles, making them less gelatinous and more similar to a traditional pasta or noodle. I love that 3 minutes is all it takes, and I can either use them for asian stir fried noodle dishes or serve them with my favorite pesto or other sauce. Just the best - great portions, so convenient, perfect for my diet, and delicious. I wish they made dumpling wrappers and more pasta shapes but I’m grateful for the variation they do have in this variety pack!

Acquired taste to satisfy low/no carb pasta cravings
I’m a newbie to low-carb eating (less than one month) and am a pasta fiend. Looking for a low/no carb alternative, I ordered this variety pack. Today the craving hit me and I really wanted some fettuccine Alfredo. Apparently from reading other reviews of similar products, these can have a “smell” but there was none. Everything was sealed well. I drained water, rinsed, and put in skillet. I also added Classico Alfredo sauce and canned chicken, along with seasonings. Flavor was non existent, which is as it is supposed to be. Texture was a little unnerving (again, I’m used to wheat pasta only), but I hope it will be an acquired taste. I’m not a big mushroom fan, and that’s the closest I can think to compare texture. Good mimic for al dente pasta, but not exact same mouthfeel or chew. Due to texture, I ate more slowly and struggled to get down both servings (1 whole bag).Next time, I think I will only do one serving and maybe cook completely separately from additional ingredients. All in all, it eased my pasta craving with no net carbs and only 20 calories, so that is a big win!

BE CAREFUL!!!
Ok, first, Konjac noodles are the absolutely best alternative to regular pasta when you are on a Keto diet or just want fewer carbs. They are full of fiber and when cooked properly, almost indistinguishable from real pasta.However, now comes the bad part, so far 1 out of every 2 packs I have opened have had rotten bad noodles. These noodles come in pouches and are sealed in liquid to keep them from drying out. I have had them before so I knew what to expect. The first pack I opened the noodles felt like a brillo pad so I opened a second pack and they were soft and al dente like pasta should be. Now I am by no means an expert, but the consistency of the two were so far apart that I didn't want to chance eating the brillo pad pasta so I tossed it and ate the good stuff, which was delicious.Bottom line, you need to be careful with items like this and while they are awesome, if there is something wrong with them you may be stuck...

Wonderful! Tasty, good texture - basically a lot like ramen but without the calories or carbs!
I loved these! They are very reminiscent of Ramen noodles, without the calories or carbs. Texture was fine - just a bit chewier than ramen, but not much. I tasted them "plain" out of the package (rinsed first), and was surprised to find they are great! I was hesitant, and I rarely like "diet" foods, but these are amazing! I've only tied the "noodle" shaped ones so far, but.... no fishy smell at all (I've read comments on that for other brands), the texture is nice - not as chewy as I feared. I used them first in a lower calorie, low carb macaroni and cheese (substituted pureed butternut squash cooked in skim milk and chicken broth with garlic) for most of the cheese, and it was delicious! The noodle shape was a bit strange for Mac & Cheese. I with they would produce these with more variety of shapes, like regular pasta, but the taste was great. Yes, they are bland, but most pasta is. Pasta seems to be more about the sauces, and these absorb the flavor of whatever you put them in. I'll update this review when I have tried other shapes, but first run was very successful, and I'm already re-ordering, as I know I'm going to be using these in quite a few recipes.
