LAN2k 18 Posted April 17, 2010 I have not tried nor heard of this stuff but I just went on the website and I think it's worth giving those noodles a try! Thanks for the post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goodlife 3 Posted April 17, 2010 That does look very interesting...if you try it, please let us know how it is! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lee 19 Posted April 17, 2010 I've tried it several times. I can get it at my local grocery store. Each time I buy it and get excited. Open the bag. Rinse, smell it, dump in the trash. Regardless of how long I rinse it etc, it still has a terrible fishy disgusting smell. I'm not generally a picky eater but this stuff really is strong. We're all different so you may like it. I haven't tried it post-op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffykins 673 Posted April 17, 2010 I'm with Lee on this on this one. I couldn't tolerate the smell. I did manage one time to make them, and the texture was deplorable. I stick with Dreamfields Pasta for the majority of my Pasta meals. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LAN2k 18 Posted April 17, 2010 Yuck, I think I'll pass and go on the advise of those of you who've tried it!! I figure there must be something weird about a food substance with 0 calorie/nutritional value...but was a little curious thinking that it would taste like udon noodles or something like that.

Tiffykins 673 Posted April 17, 2010 Try spaghetti squash for a Pasta substitute as well. (There's a yummy mac-n-cheese recipe for spaghetti squash on the food forum here) My husband and son tolerate it, they don't love it, but they'll eat it if I mix in some dreamfield noodles with it.

excited2lose 0 Posted April 18, 2010 Yeah, I don't think I will be trying them. Ick. I just love Pasta and I haven't had it since 2009! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffykins 673 Posted April 18, 2010 I swear the Dreamfields pastas are really yummy, low carb. Spaghetti Squash is a really nice alternative as well. I eat regular Pasta a few times a week. I know it's tough when you're watching carbs, but 1/4 cup of Pasta isn't going to stall out your weight loss. Have a little and make up for the Protein later on.

SamieTeacher 0 Posted April 18, 2010 I agree with Tiff. I've been hooked on Dreamfields Pasta for years. It comes in a black box. It only has 5 digestible carbs. It is so good too! I'm still on full liquids *sigh* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goodlife 3 Posted April 18, 2010 Can you get this Dreamfield's Pasta at most grocery stores or do you have to buy it online or a specialty store? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamieTeacher 0 Posted April 18, 2010 My local Target carries the Penne kind. My local grocery store (Publix) carries spaghetti, angel hair and macaroni.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tiffykins 673 Posted April 18, 2010 Can you get this Dreamfield's Pasta at most grocery stores or do you have to buy it online or a specialty store? Our local Publix and Winn Dixie carry Dreamfield as does our commissary. But, our Wal-Mart Supercenter does not carry it which is so ridiculous because they carry 500 other varieties of pastas.

wannalise 16 Posted April 19, 2010 Hey as I was looking at the dreamfields pastas online I came across the following site Low Carb food, sugar free Chocolates, sugar free candy, and more - LowCarb-R-Us it has loads of low carb options, not sure of how delightful any of them are but thought you may wanna give it a look.
