No. It's definitely NOT identical to spaghetti. It gets it's name because it's stringy and strand like when cooked.
But it IS a great substitute. Healthy and low cal and filling. You can use it in the same manner as spaghetti though. Serve it up with sauteed mushrooms, onions, marinara sauce. Add some sauteed chicken breast strips and you've got a GREAT meal.
I would definitely give it a try.
