The Best Keto Noodle - Three Konjac / Shirataki Noodles Reviewed
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 жов 2020
- There are a number of keto noodles on the market. Most of them are Shirataki noodles made from konjac. In my opinion, most are a pretty poor substitute for pasta. In this video, I pit three different konjac based noodles against each other: Miracle Noodles, Well Lean Noodles, and Healthy Noodle.

For those of you who buy that old urban legend of the estrogen in soy giving you man-boobs, I point out that that happened in ONE documented case to a man with other bizarre medical issues. Over a billion people eat soy regularly as a staple food with no ill effects such as much of Asia. Every man's body naturally produces estrogen. Soy, per se, is not detrimental to your health; HOW soy is grown and processed may give rise to concerns.
Thank you and congrats on earning a pinned comment. The only thing that wears me down more than the "ingredient police" are the "misinformed ingredient police". I'd point to MSG as another example. Unless people have specific medical issues with soy, I believe that it is 100% safe to consume.
As a woman too much soy can really mess with my hormones. If I have too much I can feel very hormonal and anxious. I have a wonky thyroid so that may be why. So for some too much bioidentical "hormones", if eaten in large amounts, can put your hormones in flux. But I agree with you, everyone is different.
Fermented soy products are OK. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Good call. So true!
Not exactly! There’s no denying that it’s estrogenic. Exactly how much it affects you, and how much you eat is part of it, but don’t deny it’s estrogenic, because it is. I’m not saying it’s not safe, or you will get instant moobs, but fact is it’s estrogenic. It’s no an urban legend, it’s a clinical fact.
I'm so grateful that you are willing to try all of these products for us. 😊
Agree. I've been playing around with homemade keto noodle recipes for a while... haven't nailed it just yet. Might have to give these a try.
Our Costco finally got them in and I was there to grab a box. I wanted to buy two but was very cautious since I wasn't 100% sure of Serious Keto's review (only because everyone's taste is different and so I was skeptical). Let me tell you....these are AMAZING!!!!!! It is a life changer for an old Italian dude like myself! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for leading me to these. I have had so many bad experiences with these types of noodles and I was grinning from ear to ear as soon as I cut the bag open and did not have to catch a smell of "Ocean Death" like all of the other products. Then after a simple rinse, I threw them in a skillet, added some flavored oil, parmesan, cracked pepper and was shocked how the noodles held everything together! It tasted as close as it can get to the real pasta. Darn close!!! It is truly a life changer for me. I can literally have 2 bags and walk away with just 120 calories and zero carbs! Add some sauce and it will still fall way short of 400 calories for basically a ton of pasta! WOW!!! I'm headed back to Costco for more.
I have yet to find them, been looking for years.
I found these ( Healthy Noodle) at Costco finally and went home and made a quick mac & cheese type dish w/ cream, garlic, salt, pepper and a little creole seasoning and this is far and away the best noodle substitute I've found. These are outstanding compared to the other alternatives, especially the Shirataki noodles. Should work great with Marinara, Alfredo or in a stir fry. Thank God!!! If you miss pasta, give it a try
Do you remember how much they cost?
They are pretty much the exact same thing as shirataki noodles just with a bit of soy powder added to them.
We got these. Ugh . Gave rest of box to food bank! N0W i find this video!!!
I always dry fry my shirataki noodles after rinsing them no matter what the package says. I find that they adhere to the sauce better when completely dry. I just made chicken curry and pour it over the healthy noodles and they were outstanding. Thanks for the find!
Thanks for sharing the curry idea! 🍜
I do too. They squeak they are ready.
So glad I found you and especially in the new year!! Thank you for the heads up and the nice shout out to your viewer!! I will definitely follow you and you have a nice voice to listen too!!!
Cheers -
From your new fan
Thank you. 😊
Thank you, Heading to Costco today to buy 'Healthy Noodles'. I appreciate all the research you do. Because of your time it saves wasting efforts and money for all of us. Not having to taste three different brands which looked like a bland experience is also appreciated. I explored recipes from Healthy Noodle website which gives lots of creative ways to use these. My go to has been Zoodles. Happy to know about this and can now add more variety in my KETO world. YES !!! Again, YOU rock.
I needed this video! I love noodles and have to go back to strict keto again because I've been having seizures again. You have made so many videos on things I can replace non keto meals with. :) thank you!
Excellent video Steve, I will be looking for these "Healthy Noodles" starting right away. Like you I am missing very much my Asian dishes and Mediterranean dishes. That opens up a huge expansion for dinner prospects. I am already drooling.
OMG STEVE YOU ARE THE BEST!!
I make homemade alfredo with these and add shrimp and have the best shrimp Cajun alfredo pasta. Its good with bolognese but with alfredo specifically the cheese clings so well. Its so good
I know your "That's a winner" face after you bite into something and I saw it every time you ate the healthy noodles, especially with the cheese sauce. Will definitely be worth the trip out of town to find a Costco just for these!
Great post Steve. Really appreciate that you do these taste tests and take the hit for the rest of us!
So glad I found this! I was recently put on a low carb diet and I miss pasta so much. Thank you for doing the comparison, this really made my day & I won’t need to feel deprived any longer ❤️ loved your review. Wishing health, happiness & blessings 🙏
Steve, this was really good! I have miracle noodles waiting to be made. Not looking forward to that so much now. Hahahaha. I do have a new brand of konjac noodles in rice for by Yuho. These say you don't have to wash or precook. I'll let you know when I try them. Thank you again for another great video!
You are so brave to take such nice big bites.
I have attempted to lessen the soy in my diet because it seems to correlate with my arthritis pain.
I’m thrilled to hear this wonderful news about a pasta replacement!
This was a great video! Thank you going through all of the trials you did! I only planned to fast-forward to the end but I stuck around for the whole video! Thank you for all of the info!
Thanks for taking the time to review these!! I’m going to definitely try healthy noodles soon!
Thank you so much for showcasing "Healthy Noodle". They have changed my keto eating and to confirm they are great in Lo mein, mac and cheese, and chicken noodle soup. Thanks so much!!
I've only had the Healthy Noodles but they are fantastic. We love making them with bone broth packets from Costco and adding some chicken for a ramen type meal. They are so delicious!
Great video! Love the straightforward (and dry humor) commentary. Keep them coming!
As always I love your down to earth style answering questions I didnt even know I needed to know! Great stuff thanks HAPPY NEW YEAR! I'd use a peanut sesame cold salad with the healthy noodle. Carbonara?
In Ireland, we just microwave them for a minute with a knob of butter, some Himalayan salt, and some black pepper. Lovely! :)
Sounds tasty!
Sounds yummy 👍
Hey where do you get these in ireland if you dont mind me asking?
Irish culinary culture really is an unmitigated disaster
@@Niltrex why?
Thanks Steve! I can't wait to try the Healthy Noodles now! I've been using the Livia noodles and I would say they are very similar to the Well Lean noodles. I've eaten them but can't say I love them. My family owned a Chinese restaurant for 40 years so let me know if you have any questions! I can ask my dad who is a Chinese food/Dim Sum chef. I think these noodles would be great as Singapore Noodles! Also, as Beef Chow Fun which I made once with shrimp and the Livia and they were amazing!!
Ok this video did it 👌🏼😄 I was so undeceive which one to buy to eat!!
I subscribed to your channel.. you went above an beyond!!!
I am so happy that you did this. Your videos are so informative and have helped me so much on my journey. Thank you. By the way my husband has almost every shirt you’ve worn on here. Great minds!
Miracle Noodles have greatly helped me stay on KETO. I use the angel hair......and love them.
Im excited to try these Healthy Noodles. The first couple times I ate Miracle Noodles I thought I could get used to them but at some point I started to gag eating them so obviously that ended quickly!
Hahaha!!
Great honest review as always! Thank you!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!!! I am going to Costco today and I happened upon your video. The other noodles I tried had a horrible consistency, they were exactly like you said, "Over cooked Calamari". Thanks for testing these.
Thank you for making this video. I haven't purchased Miracle Noodle because of the textural complaints in the reviews, but I'm glad there actually is a brand of Shiritaki noodles that are good. Thanks again!
Thank you SO much, Steve... My family is gonna be lip licking happy to have these noodles in sauce. Appreciate your responding to my request so quickly (we did miss Courtney though). Thanks to Drew too 😋🤗👍
Courtney will be in a video next week. 🙂
Thanks for posting this. Finally found these and really enjoyed them. Will definitely keep these in our fridge and it will definitely help expand our recipe creation. Cheers!
Glad you like them!
Thank you so much for this video! I'm just now embarking on trying a variety of these keto friendly noodles. I can't wait make some awesome sauces to compliment these with a healthy keto dish!
You have an amazing voice! Ever think of doing voiceovers? I adore your recipes. You’ve really helped my Keto journey! 45 lbs in 3 mos and going🙏👍👏
Thanks for doing that taste comparison Steve. I’m a Canadian living overseas and was able to get the Healthy Noodle in Singapore. They really are leaps and bounds better then the standard konjac noodles I’d been getting. 😋. I made a Pho and they were scrumptious in it. I wouldn’t have known about those noodles if hadn’t been for your taste testing. Thanks a bunch. 😀
@produdeyay I bought them at Isetan grocery. If not familiar, it’s on the bottom floor of the Isetan mall. They are in the cold section with other packaged noodles. Just look carefully for them they are hard to see. Hope you find them.
Another thorough review! Great job Steve! Huge thanks!
Your my go to for making my choices on what to buy I'm new to this and you are helping me a bunch...thank you for what you do...
Thank you for your work in this, makes it easier for people so they know before buying it your the best💜
I watched Serious Keto review these different pastas. I bought the Healthy Noodle brand at Costco and they are AMAZING! Thank you for the review and helping us keto people. :)
Glad I could help n
@@SeriousKeto They don't have the healthy noodle in costco's in AZ sadly. I checked their web site. No other way to find it outside of Costco sadly.
@@MrCalarie Same in VA. BOO!😜👎
Going to Costco next week. Going to pick some of these up!!
Sadly, as of March 2021, Costco (both locations in San Francisco and South San Francisco) do not have the Healthy Noodle anymore. You might still find them at some Asian Markets - but at a much higher price. I have been buying these Healthy Noodle at Costco for about 6 months before they were nowhere to be found. I really hope Costco will stock them again soon.
I used the miracle noodles a couple of nights ago. I used the Trader Joe's Thai Green Curry sauce and put in peppers and cooked chicken. It was really good, can't wait to try the Healthy Noodle. Type 2 D. has been slowly getting worse, so when I went shopping after taking diabetic classes at my health care facility, I was very depressed about my food selection walking through the store. As time goes on I am getting much better at finding the foods that work for me.....and the noodle is a very important one. Great video here!
I tried the Healthy Noodle bc of ur video n it is amazing! I used it as a spaghetti noodle sub n a ramen noodle sub in my ramen soup. I love that it doesn’t have that weird smell like the other noodle n the consistency is not rubbery. Thank u for this vid!!
I’m so glad u did this!!!! So incredibly helpful!
I’ve been enjoying shirataki noodles since I started keto! So clean and almost zero carbs! It’s a staple in my fridge. I usually make mine with shrimps, pesto, and yes, extra garlic and olive oil 🍝 🍲 🍜 😋. Thanks for the product comparisons, SK Steve!
Great video. I always get the miracle noodles, but I'm definitely going to try the heathy noodles. Thanks to you, it looks greatv👍🏾 💯
Love this video for all details with different konjac noodle, especial for which one will really absorb the sauce.
Pad Thai, here I come! Been tempted by these, so I'm glad they have passed your taste test, and I love the way they look.
The look on your face when you smelled the Miracle noodles was priceless and your (positive) micro-expressions every time you taste the Healthy Noodles says it all. Thanks for being willing to be the guinea pig on these - looks like Healthy Noodle only for me.
I will say that now that I’ve made the spaghetti/ramen recipe, I’ve lost interest in the Healthy Noodles.
@@SeriousKeto I haven't seen that video yet...will have to check it out. Thx.
Omg, I’m in love with your voice. Thank you so much for your review. I’m craving some keto pasta.
Thank you for this video! I really love how you showed them all in different ways as well!
Thank you for testing!!
Healthy Noodle is the best! I've been trying to find a good low carb pasta for 10 years and this is the only one that doesn't disappoint. The ability to have pasta with meat sauce or just noodles with butter and not have to endure weird textures/smells, has been a game changer for me!
Hi there, thank you for this awesome video.....I just started a 30 days keto challenge and love noodles so thank you. Keep up the great work.
I'm so glad you did this video on these noodles. I'd never even try the other two noodles. Reading about those noodles were a turn off. Will be ordering the Healthy Noodles.
Ok I'm sold going to try the healthy noodle. I had to laugh when you said the miricle noodle is like eating rubberbands! I have always said the same thing! Great video.
Thanks for your experiments, I love watching you try things out. I really dislike Konjac root in all forms, it feels awful in my sensitive digestive tract. For noodles I eat Cappello’s almond flour noodles occasionally. They taste great and are keto friendly, but the carbs are too high for me to have more than a half serving at a time. My new pasta sub that I love is broiled cabbage....I just chop it up in strips, drizzle it with olive oil and butter, add salt, pepper, add crushed garlic and broil it in a pan for a few minutes until just a bit golden colored and really? It tastes fantastic to me, and feels great in my guts too. 🙂👍🏼
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, this is a great video that examines Shirataki noodles from all aspects. Thank you! P.S. Love the t-shirt
This is my kind of video. Enjoy how this gentleman really paints a picture with his words. Probably best you tube video I've watched in a long time
Great review! I just tried the miracle noodles recently and wasn’t impressed so wouldn’t have tried the others had you not issued the Steve Serious Seal of approval. 🥇🍜
OK Steve, you got me :) I'll give the Healthy Noodles a try based on your review. I HATE konjac noodles (Miracle, etc), fingers crossed the Healthy Noodles are just that bit different like you mentioned. Thanks for the comprehensive review!!!
Hi! this video came up on my suggestions....I'm glad I tuned in....GREAT presentation, awesome information and I even LOL'd . New subbie!
Glad to have you here.
Thanks Steve for such a great video. Have been missing pasta. Can't wait to try. Thanks again :)
He’s great at Keto videos, easy to follow and finds the most UNUSUAL stuff. I also agree that Yes!!! , if he can do accents, he would be a great audiobook narrator!
Thanks for doing this. I'm a diabetic and I'm forever searching for rice and pasta substitutes.
Thanks Steve!! Appreciate your sharing, doing, testing!! Healthy noodles-I’ll have to give them a try!!
Just finally found these at my Costco and can’t wait to try these. Thanks for the review!
This pasta is the best!!! Been using it for 6 months. It has a very long refrigerator shelf life for each unopened package. Won't ever use anything else. Definitely helps me on keto. Good demo. Thanks.
Very long shelf life! Thank goodness! My Costco in Spokane says they are a seasonal item???😆 so I stock up when I find them!
We ALWAYS rinse the Miracle Noodles in a bowl of water that has a tablespoon of white vinegar added, which totally neutralizes the some. Then we rinse it and cook etc. I really want to try the Healthy Noodles form Costco but have not found it at ours yet. Thank you so much for doing these reviews for us. It takes the "guess" work out of trying new products at least for me.
Love the shirt for this video! Great review btw!
Subscribed. Thank you for the reviews! 😊🇨🇦
Your recommendation of the Healthy Noodle brand is spot on! I already had the Well Lean noodles and had made some Pad Thai with them and they were fine but the Healthy Noodle brand is MUCH better. I really appreciated this breakdown of different brands. Your serious testing of products is something I really value on your channel and this one was a hit. Thank you!
Glad I could help.
I ate a lot of konjac in Japan. It’s mostly added to a broth soup with fish cakes, eggs, veggies etc and the miracle noodles are really best prepared as a soup. Like another commenter, I don’t bother boiling them but do rinse well and pan dry before using. I can’t wait to try the Healthy Noodles.! Thanks, Steve!!
So true that miracle noodles are better with soup or a lotta of liquid and personally for more Asian flavored dishes. I tried them with spaghetti sauce and didn't really care for them. I seasoned my sauce and meat well, added more salt for the noodles but the bland taste and the texture combined causes me to not eat my leftovers. I made them again using another youtuber's family authentic spicy Chinese (not Chinese-American) beef soup and they were fantastic and a squeeze of lime juice at the end made them taste like rice noodles! Generally, I would not risk eating too many without liquid and a little fat because it could get stuck in the intestines.
Really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing.
How articulate! I like watching such formal people. Subscribed!
Glad to have you here. 🙂
Thanks for saving me from saving to try out these pasta substitutes seeing is believing! I hope that Healthy Noodle product is available elsewhere, i.e., Woodman's or Outpost. BTW, I finally looked at the box fopr my lovely Zip Whisk to see a photo array picturing: 'Froth milk for a perfect cappuccino, Fluffy omelet, Homemade mayonnaise, Milkshakes, and Delightful whipped cream.' This tool is already getting more attractive to this engineer.
I love the healthy noodles from Costco and I have been experimenting with them for about a year. They are my favorite too. They are really good in a stir fry Asian noodle dish.
Excellent video. Very informative. Thank you for posting this!
Glad it was helpful!
I love this video, thank you. Really love your voice, it sounds like radio. You said 'sorry' like a Canadian. I'm about to go look for healthy noodles on vitacost.
I'm going to look for the healthy noodles! I love your "Danger Noodle" shirt.
Thank you for introducing me to the Healthy Noodles!!!!! They are the BEST. They have no weird taste or consistency.
I love your videos! You are always so spot on.
I have tried Shiritaki spaghetti noodles. I had them with alfredo sauce, which was good. My favorite was making ramen soup. Cooked meat, noodles, chicken broth, boiled egg, green onion. It was amazing! Thanks for all you do to help us find the best keto foods and products.
Thank you thank you 🙏. Being Diabetic noodles is the one thing I stay away from and miss the most. Because of your ongoing journey and caring for other people you have opened up a world of food I never thought I’d eat again.
The first time I watched this video o completely missed the “Danger Noodle” t-shirt. 😂🤣... I love it!! Thanks for saying where in the Costco they’re located. I feel like no one ever says where they are. It means I do t have to walk ALL OVER Costco to find them. Thank you so much for all you do!
I have that Danger Noodle tee in blue. Love it! I wish my Costco carried Healthy Noodle. Guess I’ll have to go there and make puppy eyes
@@angelaa9948 I had to go online and request that my Costco start carrying them. I guess enough people requested it so they sent me an email to tell me they were gonna start carrying them.
@Bshell1502 Thank you! I’ll try that and see if it works for me. Fingers crossed!
You've inspired me!! I'm headed to Costco right now to see if they have this!!😃 I have Miracle Noodles and I really haven't found any recipe that makes them more than "meh"...so I'm excited to try Healthy Noodles! Thanks, Steve!!
I love these kinds of videos! Thanks!!
Just picked the healthy noodles up at my costco and LOVE them! They have no rubbery texture or fishy odor =) BTW if anyone is in the Palm Springs area they are at the Palm Desert Costco location.
I am not a serious Keto person but, I’ve been watching my carb & sugar intake since diabetes and high blood pressure runs in my family...let me tell you, the healthy noodles is a game changer in my eating🤩. I’ve been buying and enjoying the healthy noodles from Costco ever since I’ve seen it there and it’s the BEST alternative pasta for me specially it’s 1 net carb, 0 sugar, and 25 calories per serving!!! It’s not that expensive at Costco either. Very versatile noodles-for any Italian noodle recipes as well as Asian recipes. enJOY🤩🙌🏻🎉🥳
Thanks for the info/review. Glad I didn’t go to Costco today before I found out about these noodles. I will go tomorrow and hope they have them so I can have with stir fry veggies tomorrow night.
My Costco does not carry the Healthy Noodles.
Thanks for the video. As a newbie to konjac noodles, you saved me a lot of time and money. 😁😁😁. Now I know what to look for the next time I'm at the store. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Steve, this doesn't open a lot of possibilities, it is a lot of pasta-bilities 😆 Another great video! Gonna see if I can find these online somewhere else since I don't have a Costco that is convenient to where I live.
Me too please. I cannot find Healthy Noodles online. No Costco nearby for me so if you find them online then PLEASE share the info.
I've done the healthy noodle with tomato sauce, was pretty decent! Didn't think of the cheese sauce. Thanks Steve!
I love love love how you don't have that annoying background music in your videos. Thank you for keeping it simple and peaceful. Very helpful info. But the no background music earned you a subscription.
Good thing you didn’t watch a couple of my early chaffle videos. 😉
I like your T-shirt it is very funny and matching right with this episode;) I have been waiting for this noodle blog thank you
I totally agree with your findings, love the healthy noodles
“That was not a win” 🤣 your voice is awesome and I plan on keep watching your videos!!
I appreciate that!
this is like one of the best comparison videos I've ever seen! You told me exactally what I wanted to know about these noodles! Thank you!
Thank YOU. 🙂
I just bought some Healthy Noodles and so glad your video exists because I was slightly skeptical! Thank you for the taste test!
I like the healthy noodles. Been using it for a year. Last night i made shrimp Alfredo with it and my hubby (how is NOT keto) loved it and ate the entire bowl.
Had the Healthy noodles last night with rotisserie chicken and cheese sauce...pretty good!
I'm glad you did this video as I have been using Skinny Pasta and they thru me out of ketosis. After watching this video and others, I noticed Skinny pasta has tapioca starch, does not say whether resistant or not, but either way I am going to switch to Healthy Noodle and see what happens. It would be interesting to see if the same thing happens with you with the Skinny Pasta. The weird thing was my glucose reading went from 84 to 81, using the KetoMojo.
