INTRO TO A NEW NOODLE:
What are shiritaki noodles? They are actually about 97% water and 3% glucomannan fiber from varied plant-based foods like yams (depending on the brand.) They’re a super low-calorie “mock pasta” with no digestible carbohydrates. Some refer to it as a “miracle” noodle replacement with literally near 0 calories and a neutral flavor profile.
