HethstiaKonjac Rice, 12 Packs Low Carb Shirataki Rice, Keto, Vegan, Gluten-Free, Sugar-Free, Low Calorie, 0 Fat, Ready-to-Eat Healthy Food & Holiday Gifts

These are a game-changer... I'm SO glad to have found these "noodles" on my current diet!I got a bit squishier than I'd like during the pandemic and finally got around to putting myself on a diet. But being a tiny person with a pretty low basal metabolic rate, cutting enough calories to shed pounds means I'm mega limited in what I can eat. I'm always on the lookout for filling foods that don't rack up the calories, and these are just the ticket!Some reviewers have mentioned that these are too chewy, or they don't have a taste... well, yeah, they aren't going to be like actual pasta or rice. However, plain pasta and rice aren't too flavorful, either; they're just the carrier - the vessel, if you will - for tasty toppings! These don't have much in the way of smell or taste on their own. And the texture, while a bit toothier than an overcooked spaghetti noodle, is not bad. They are closer to rice/glass noodles than anything. If you don't mind that, you won't mind these. And at 6 calories a serving vs. 200+ for actual noodles or rice, I'm more than willing to make a tiny flavor sacrifice. Even my partner - who is NOT on a diet - will share these with me happily.I can make these with vegetable bouillon, a few fresh veggies (spinach, kale, asparagus, peppers, etc.), and a splash of soy sauce and hot sauce for an extremely filling meal that's only 30 calories and easy to prep, using the microwave or just boiling water from the kettle. Or I mix in the "rice" with steamed broccoli and some meatless "steak" tips and enjoy a nice stir-fry for only about 100-150 calories total. OR I make a homemade tomato sauce with fresh tomatoes, spices, capers, and other fresh veggies, and have a satisfying spaghetti dinner that clocks in at around 35 total calories!Obviously, you need enough caloric intake to survive, so I'm not encouraging anyone to under-eat... but if you're close to your daily calorie limit and still hungry, these make a great way to stave off food cravings! And while I'm making healthier choices and watching my intake overall, these are definitely helping with my diet; I am actively losing weight. I'm on my second variety pack already and will definitely continue to keep these on hand throughout the course of my diet, and maybe even thereafter.I only wish that these could be packaged dry somehow, and that the price were more comparable to actual rice & noodles. Still, this particular product is the best value I've found.

THESE ARE THE BEST! They don't raise my blood sugar AND keep me in ketosis. 1 pack fills you up and is just fine if you're lazy and want to do something like cacio e pepe lol

I love it! It's a huge help on a diet. There's no taste so you only feel your own sauce. The texture is a bit chewy, but I like it a lot. A game changer. Just be careful with kids, I think there's a small risk of choking if you don't cut it.

Just opened the box and it's moldy with black and red tainted product. Box says good until June 2026. Tried to refund/return but it won't let me even though it says it's available to until June 18th. Very disappointed.

I love that this product is low calorie, but it really doesn't taste much like rice, but it does help you stay within a calorie range. They are very expensive, though.

I’ve been eating konjac noodles for years from a different company. Just found out that it comes in rice form. Decided to give it a try because I’m kinda sick of cauliflower rice, and I am now hooked. Gonna be perfect for when I’m craving rice

If you have ever purchased shirataki from a grocery store, you are probably familiar with the 7oz and 14oz packages. These are packed in a large amount of liquid, and the liquid has a very fishy smell. This is due to the manufacturing process as opposed to the konjac itself, which is flavorless.Hethstia and other non-refrigerated, ready-to-eat shirataki noodles are marketing to an audience distinct from those who frequent asian grocery stores. These are not packaged in the same way as traditional shirataki, so there is no fishy smell present. I rinse these for a few seconds and squeeze out excess water with my tofu press, but the amount prep for these probably depends on the viscosity of the liquid or sauce you will use. For kimchi stew or mul-naengmyeon, these can go right in without any prep. If you are making western dishes like noodles with tomato-based or alfredo sauce, you can certainly put these in a skillet dry to remove excess moisture and water.The greatest thing about these is zero prep time. Faster and healthier than boiling and eating starchy noodles, these are carb-free, filling, and texturally pleasing.The worst thing about these is the small amount per package. For the same price, you can get more than twice the quantity of shirataki from a local grocery store, although that does require draining/rinsing/boiling or dry sauteeing.Even though these are more expensive than shirataki at the grocery store, they save time and gas, so I consider these to be of equal value.

These are a "12 pack" but the packs are small, barely enough for one person. One bag weighs just 3.5 oz drained. Also, they were supposed to come 3 packs each of rice, spaghetti noodles, angel noodles, and fettuccini noodles, but they ended up giving me an uneven package with more of the rice and less of the spaghetti. Considering the price I paid (almost $3/oz), these are NOT worth it! I can buy 8 oz packages of konjac noodles in Winco for under $2.75 apiece.
