Tofoodles

Is everybody ready to try something new?

I was on my own for dinner tonight as Roland is giving his ethics final exam. I decided to go over to Publix and pick up some vegetables and stuff for a stir fry. While I was perusing the produce section, which is where they also keep a lot of their vegetarian stuff, I saw these Tofu Shirataki "Spaghetti Shaped Noodle Substitute." It's on baby! I mean "noodle substitute" doesn't necessarily bode all that well (smacks a little of cheese food product), but I'm up for an experience. Mostly I think people want them if they are vegan, or if they aren't supposed to have cholesterol or starchy things for some reason, none of which really apply to me.

They are simple and fast to prepare, but the real test is the taste right? I thought they were pretty good, I mean they aren't noodles and they do have a slightly different mouth feel. But overall they are something I would eat again.
