EXPLORE CUISINE Vegab Non-GMO Black Bean Spaghetti - 8oz, 24 Total Servings

Tastes great, fast and easy to prepare. Simple ingredients, perfect texture and healthier than wheat

I cannot find these gluten free black bean noodles in ANY store around me so I bought a case! They taste delicious & cook up to a close consistency of wheat noodles. The noodles in the box are black (black bean noodles, right?) & cook up to a very dark charcoal grey color. The water turns a charcoal grey color as well & once drained, the noodles don't typically stock to the walls of the pan as wheat noodles do. I really like the Explore Cuisine (formerly Explore Asian) & the case packaging is just right for me for a couple reasons. First, when buying in bilk, I tend to find I get a better price. Second, the noodles are so good, I go through a lot & again, since they aren't available in stores where I live, waiting for a shipment isn't always fun, especially when certain products aren't eligible for Prime shipping. The noodles are low in carbs & to me, taste really good. They do NOT taste like wheat noodles so don't compare them to that. That's like making lemon bars then saying "wow, these don't taste like brownies". Umm, just because they LOOK similar, doesn't mean they are. I toss my black bean noodles with a little olive oil & add artichoke hearts, kalamata olives, bean sprouts, broccoli, onions, water chestnuts, bell peppers, mushrooms & more. Give them a try! I think you might find you'll be surprised at how much you like them! Plus, there is no bloated feeling after eating these noodles as many experience after eating wheat pasta. Even my non-vegan, gluten loving husband thought these were pretty tasty. You may like to add a little sea salt. Not iodized (table salt). that causes high blood pressure & can make your ears ring. Try the noodles with sea salt.

Found these locally and liked them so much that I purchased more online. I really like that they have more protein than regular pasta. I like the texture, they don’t have a noticeable flavor, they cook like any other pasta, and are filling.

I have a gluten allergy and am so thankful for GF options. I like these better than other GF options, they cooled fast and held together. I like the tase as well…. It doesn’t have much flavor, but I like it better than rice pasta. I kind of like the odd color…. My family all questioned it, but in the end they all went back for seconds.

I'm on a weight cut so cutting carbs is the most efficient means to drop weight so I got these noodles. I enjoy the snappy and chewy texture, it's not grainy or mealy like almond flour. Clings to sauce really well but the actual flavor of the noodles is pretty lack luster if there even is any, but I guess that can be a good thing too if you want a neutral base for your meals. I would buy this again because of the protein to carb ratio and it is a decent ingredient overall.
