Sorry luv! Shirataki threads run on alt.support.diet.low-carb
more than they do here. :-)

Package label: 2 grams carbs per serving, 2.5 servings per package,
serving size is 3 oz. They are a wet noodle in the refrigerated section.
Made from yams, I understand the net carbs are even lower but my
packages have no fiber count so I'm not sure. To me, 1 package (2.5
servings) is about right for a good bowl of noodle soup. :-) That is
only 5 grams of carbs. Most noodles would be 10 to 20 times that!!!

Suitable for any asian recipes, and I'm tempted to try them with a white
sauce!
