Dreamfield's is great. The Tofu shirataki noodles are less delicious but a fast way to lose weight & feel full. If your supermarket has them at all, they'll be in a chilled, liquid-filled package near the other tofu. Wash them well when opening, they'll smell a little weird bec. they're not really pasta, they're tofu. BUT when you boil them up, mix them with fat free cheese, ff sour cream & spices...they blend.
