NEW - Tofu Shirataki Noodle...
Macaroni!  I am a big fan of the angle hair, I use them all the time in our Asian style of cooking!  Now the macaroni could open up some new doors for other alternative recipes!  
Yes, this low-carb pasta swap is a bit "bouncier" and slightly more slippery than conventional noodles, but if you eat lots of pasta (or want to eat lots of pasta!), give these noodles a try. You can find them in the refrigerated section where the tofu is stocked, floating in bags of liquid. Don't be scared! Follow the directions on the back!
"Tofu Shirataki is a great pasta alternative made from blending the root of the Konnyaku -- a member of the yam family -- and tofu. It is a healthy, uniquely textured noodle. [It] pleases people of all ages!"
