Is it possible to find shirataki noodles/miracle noodles that aren't packaged in plastics?

They’re ALL wrapped in the most horrible plastics possible. It would be better even if they were JUST wrapped in non-flexible plastics that were sturdy rather than water-bottle-like-plastics (which we know are the worst/most leechy).

If not for that, they would otherwise be the MOST perfect low-effort healthy food ever

Meanwhile, miracle noodle support is a maggotfucking idiot. For a product that markets to health-conscious consumers, it better be smart enough to KNOW that microplastics are enough to make a food “cancelled”

Thank you for contacting us.
We suggest to please transfer the noodles into a microwavable bowl. We appreciate for taking time to send us your feedback and we are happy to hear you like our products.

And then they say they’re BPA free, never mind that I’m WAY less concerned about BPA than I am about plastics that get stuck in my cells

Ha ha ha,…They’ve got ChatGPT answering their emails.

I love Ramen noodles, then add eggs, veggies, yummy. Ramen gets a bad rap.

I love the shiraiki, but take it easy. I once ate a whole package at once (sort of like mac and cheese only with shirataki). Stopped me up for 4 days. Then I read stories of people that ate a big dose at once and needed surgery to get it out.

Good find, I like that stuff too.

The noodles gave me massive stomach pain and I was preparing to vomit but didn’t, but I ate two packs at once (they told me to try 1/2 of a pack next time)

There’s very flexible plastic but it probably isn’t too horribly different from dried spaghetti plastic, which is totally different from wet plastic. The plastic to volume ratio is not great

The rice here seems less likely to cause it because easier to pass through (and it’s >1 lb, so probably lower plastic to volume ratio). The shirataki noodles are VERY tightly wrapped in plastics, which increases the plastic surface area to food volume ratio, the shirataki rice are not as tightly wrapped in them

Hmm, I ate almost 20 hours ago, it really disrupted me for a good number of hours ~3 hours in, now I’m able to feel hunger again and feeling normal again and I still haven’t gotten any of it out yet. I wonder how long it will take… Newbie sources say “food can take up to 58 hours to go through the digestive tract”

ate one entire pack today. some nausea later on
today i also dosed myself with 8mg ondansetron for the first time.
[doses can be higher]
let’s see if that works

now i can do it with retatrutide/semaglutide so I can get my calorie consumption down at last
