  • HI,

    Those sound good. The only thing you have to watch out for on detox is preservatives. But, preservatives don't affect your weight loss. Just your detox. I will have to see if I can find some of those. Thanks!

    You have to make sure to follow the directions on the package - rinse the noodles well, then boil them. I mixed them together with a tomato and garlic sauce and it was yummy.

  • I thought they were the most godawfulvile smelling and tasting things. Some people do love them though. I would recommend only using a very very flavorful aromatic sauce.
  • I've heard some pretty negative things about them, lol. I personally haven't had the courage to try them. I'd rather just eat pasta Have you tried the brown rice pasta? It's really good, and it's just brown rice.
  • Gotta say, I think I would like these. I eat some things that others view as pretty weird (tofu type stuff).

    We don't have a central market - has anyone seen them anywhere else? We have krogers, farm fresh, etc. I'll try them if I can find them!
  • wow that sounds great! I love pasta as well
