Glad I'm Not the Only One...

...that HATED Tofu Shirataki Noodles. Check out the Serious Eats taste test here.

If you have ever read or seen anything from Hungry-Girl, chances are you have heard about these. She uses these as a substitute for real pasta in many of her dishes.

Well, I tried these before and I thought they were HORRIBLE as a pasta substitute. I've had shirataki noodles in Japanese dishes before, like sukiyaki, where it's not meant to be a pasta substitute, and takes in the flavors of the meat and broth before.

Try them if you're still hoping that these 40 calorie noodles are the miracle substitute for REAL pasta, but don't say I (and Serious Eats) didn't warn you!
