    "Slim Pasta, is a guilt free way to enjoy eating past again. Nekapa is both healthy and delicious. Nekapa Pasta is made from moyu, a natural fibre with calories the body doesn’t absorb, while keeping your body full like any other main stream pasta brand. Nepaka pasta contains zero calories, zero carbohydrates and zero fat, zero sugar and zero salt. Nekapa Slim Pasta is unabsorbable by the body because it simply passes through the digestive system intact. Nekapa Slim Pasta keeps you feeling full like any other pasta and noodles"


    Anyone tried this??

    it's the exact same. Moyu is another name for konjac, the plant they are made form.

    This is real food. It's made from a type of yam. It's just all fibre so no calories.

    Well then yea I've tried it. It's quite nice actually but only with a sauce. Eating it dry wouldn't be as pleasing.

    You need to really rinse the sh!t outta it to get rid of the 'yak' smell.

    Yeah it has to be covered in sauce, all mixed together. A bit tasteless on its own.

    When I searched for these before they were pretty expensive. I have seen Stench Blossoms posting about 'cauliflower rice' before, as a similar low calorie bulking food.

    I don't like cauliflower that much but reckon a strong curry sauce would mask it.

    I buy mine from MiracleNoodle.com. They work out at about 2-3e a bag.

    Edit: I've got the rice, noodles and pasta from there.

    I think I liked the rice the most because it was easy to eat.

    It looks kinda like frog spawn though
