Miracle Noodle rice is expensive by my standards. I would prefer to add jicama "rice" that adds probiotic inulin and other great fibers and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. It's not exclusively about avoiding carbs to me. I like to do so with what I consider less processed, more true foods that provide the same low carb value without the high cost along with what I consider better nutritional profile than just being a processed, low carb substitute. But that's just me.
