Shirataki noodles are nearly all fiber. Their carb count after fiber
deduction is so low you count basically any amount as one gram. Not
zero but very low. They come wet. Not the same texture or flavor as
high carb noodles but for those who are on a low carb or grain free
program where high carb noodles aren't an option they work.

Given the choice I'll go with high carb noodles of something other than
wheat, but that's because I'm wheat intolerant so I avoid wheat
constantly but I'm only a wannabe low carber so I avoid high carb foods
some of the time. I use noodles of quinoa, rice or sometimes corn. On
rare occasions I've found all buckwheat noodles. Usually Japanese
buckwheat noodles list wheat flour as their first ingredient so the all
buckwheat ones are a rare find at health food places.
