That looks very interesting. Will keep and eye out for it. Thanks, pommyjohn1
Just reading the website, only the angel hair slim pasta is GF. The spaghetti is low gluten.

Hi geldof That must have changed because I have a packet in my hands and it is certainly marked Gluten Free with the Coeliac crossed grain symbol

I think it is the oatmeal flour. from website.
Is SlimPasta gluten-free! Yes, SlimPasta’s Angel Hair is gluten-free. However, SlimPasta’s Spaghetti contains low level of gluten (4.2mg per 100g).
Do you know when it will be available in stores!or approx cost!
I have been trying to find the Shirataki noodles in Hamilton.It would appear they are very similar.

Hi geldof talking to the guys at the show it has been approved by the nz coeliac society so I would say the website is out of date.Cost around $4 a packet

A reply from the manufacturers Thank you for your enquiry regarding SlimPasta. SlimPasta Spaghetti wasinitially alow Gluten Free product . We have since commenced manufacturing a Gluten Free Spaghetti. Until we were satisfied that all previous stock had been soldthrough we were hesitant to change over the information on the website. All new SlimPasta Spaghetti will have Coeliac Endorsement located in the left hand corner of the packaging to reflect that it is a Gluten Free Product.
