I'm going to check out these zero-calorie noodles everyone is talking about - they're made from some weird Japanese plant called Konjac. They can't be actually zero - we reckon they must be about 10 calories per pack - but reviews range from how dreadfully un-tasty they are, to how they can be incorporated into almost any dish in order to bulk and satisfy as would pasta, bread, rice or potato. </p><p>As someone who loves bulky carbs, I'm looking forward to trying them out. Buying some (available at all good health food shops) on my way home and I'll give a totally objective review tomorrow!</p><p>Wish me luck!</p> </div>
