    i know i loved them too, cant find them either. The original ones are soooo fattening. They dont have the nutrutional content on them but i email the company who imports them and it work out as 10 points in weight watchers. OUCH !!!!

    which spar

    Tesco and Aldi's versions have a lot less fat in them so I use the flavour packet from normal Koka with the lower fat noodles. :D

    A bit wasteful I know but they're not expensive and I need my Koka fix without the calories. I put stir fry veg in too to make them go further.

    Fair bit of fat in many noodles. The carbs might cause you to get fat more than the fat anyway. A single pack of mcdonalds supernoodles can be around 600kcal, yet many consider them "healthy" or low in calories for some reason. Thats more calories than a big mac.

    Sodium is high in these kind of products? I thought of the way they're made, not too good for you, regardless of fat content.

    the ones in the pack are


    Instant Koka Noodles packets: 455 Kcal or 1912 KJ per 100g

    fat content is 19.95grms per 100grms

    I think it works out as 10 points in WW

    got boynne valley to email me, they import them

    Thanks, i've been wondering about that for SO long.

    I can tell you now, i wont be eating those ever again, 85g a pack so thats 386 kcal and 17g fat per pack. Ill be on the look out for those lo fat ones!

    I once wrecked the noodles :( so I opened up a new packet and used the flavour satchet from the ruined noodles. So 1 portion of noodles with 2 flavour satchets. It didn't work out like I hoped.

    Koka noodles are the only ones I'll eat. The McDonald ones are so thick, to me they feel like greasy little worms.
