This is a must try!
After reading a couple of bad reviews about this product, I was skeptical of trying it. But since I am a pasta lover In a low carb diet, I decided to give it a try. I simply do not understand how people would give only one star for this Natural Heaven. I am literally in heaven right now. This is by far the most amazing pasta substitute I have ever tried in my life. I was so sick of having to eat zucchini noodles. And who are chickpeas noodles comparing to this delicious Palm hearts pasta? For those who want to eat healthy, this one is a must try. You will not regret it. It is so easy to prepare. I am going to order more right now. The price could be a little better😁, but it is totally worth it. I am so in love with this! ❤️🍝

Not for everyone, but worth a try
Pros: Better than nothing, and no odd taste if you know what to do.Cons: Requires you to invest into the process of making it palatable.I read a number of reviews before buying this, and was hopeful, but ready for disappointment. To be clear, if you are a pasta snob, this will not satisfy you. However, after two months without any noodles of any sort... this was nice. It's important for me to qualify my statement: I have only used it in a wok, as part of a stir fry, and I'm a pretty good cook. I made a lo mein with beef and veggies, and seasoned it a LOT with garlic, pepper flakes, five spice powder and soy sauce. So, as many others have stated, you have to give it flavor, or it's not good. With all those flavors, I wasn't relying on the pasta substitute to make me happy.I also followed the recommendations I read in other reviews. You can't just open the bag and go for it. Some canned vegetables have a tinny taste if you don't blanch them. This is that way. You have to rinse, then plunge in boiling water for a couple of minutes, drain, and make efforts to remove excess moisture. This is not a product for people who don't get in the kitchen a lot. You have to put some effort into it. If you are used to easy to use convenience foods, this (and keto, in general) may not work for you.

Healthy, Tasty, Versatile, Easy
I am eating keto and so try numerous products that are substitutes for carbs. This is one of my most successful finds. I first used these noodles in place of standard spaghetti noodles along with a marinara sauce (added mushrooms, onion, garlic and fresh tomatoes) that has no sugar, home made, deep fat fried meat balls all topped with grated parmesan cheese. I like to saute the noodles in butter, a bit of red wine and salt and pepper. I have come to like them well enough to also use them as a side dish to any meat entree (with or without the wine). This spaghetti is a favorite dish of my family's. An interesting note : My cardiologist wrote down this ingredient when I described my new, healthy "diet."

Finally, a pasta substitute I can enjoy
I've been doing low carb (Atkins) for many years (since 2003), and more recently, keto since January 2019. So I've tried my share of LC/Keto products over the years - the majority of which were, to put it nicely, not worth buying again. I recently heard about this hearts of palm pasta from Steve on Serious Keto. I bought the 6 box pack (living dangerously!) of the spaghetti. Tonight I opened the box, and inside was a vacuum-sealed packet of rather spaghetti-appearing "pasta" - I opened the packet and dumped the contents into a skillet with a couple tablespoons of olive oil and tossed it around til hot. Divided that between husband and me in our pasta bowls, added browned and seasoned ground beef, some cooked mushrooms, and 1/2 cup Rao's Marinara Sauce (fairly low carb at 4 grams per half cup serving) - nuked it all up and we sat down to try it. Does it taste exactly like pasta? Nope. But it's a far cry from those nasty smelly shiratake noodles that you have to rinse forever and then dry-fry to make edible. It's less flavor than spaghetti squash, so doesn't "fight" with your toppings. It's somewhat reminiscent of zoodles but better texture IMHO. Now I'm very glad I have four more boxes! Pasta pesto, Puttanesca sauce, Alfredo with chicken and broccoli - yup, we'll be eating all those in the coming weeks. Would I buy it again? Yes! Is it pricey? Yes - but we don't eat pasta dishes too often so it's not gonna break the bank. Will be trying the lasagna too!

Are you sure this isn’t pasta?!
This stuff is my absolute favorite. You would never know it’s not traditional pasta. Can’t wait until they have the lasagna back in stock!! The texture is delicious and very much like al dente pasta. Try Natural Heaven. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic for keto
These are the best noodles for keto that I’ve ever tasted once you mix in with the sauce it taste just like regular pasta the only thing it’s a lot of fiber so it fills you up very quick and if you eat too much you might be running to the toilet LOL

Best Hearts of Palm Pasta
Having tried several brands of hearts of palm pasta, I like the texture of these the best. I also like that this brand can be used right out of the package, without any rinsing. With a good tomato sauce, this gives me the illusion of eating pasta without all the calories and carbs.

Keto girl in a pasta world!!
Let me tell you straight... Nothing will ever replace carby glutenous noodles....but this is the closest so far!!! It doesn't release water like zucchini, its not slimy like miracle noodles, and the taste is great, it takes on the taste of whatever sauce u use. It has a very small hint of palm of hearts but it honestly taste delicious. Its a little pricey but what other option is there. I'm on keto and in love with my pasta dishes again!!!

Ridiculously expensive - do NOT buy through "Vitamin Boutique" - highway robbery!
I hardly ever write reviews but I don't like when a company is ripping people off. It is accurately shown as one 9 OUNCE box but I didn't really think about how little that is and the picture with 2 boxes made me think much about it as I wanted to try it. The product is good, so there is nothing wrong with the company, Natural Heaven and their products, so I don't think this is their fault. But people, this is a simple, single inexpensive ingredient (Heart of Palm) product being sold here for $21 CDN+tax and it could literally fit in the palm of your hand! It is available in other places for less than $7 for the same box!*Vitamin Boutique* - I'm all for open, free-market capitalism but this is offensive to me! Clearly you are trying to exploit the Keto, Gluten-free trend, which again is fine, but be reasonable - especially during Covid. Even with a few $ for shipping, this should be no more than $10/box. As I am doing, I encourage others to notify eatnaturalheaven.com that this particular distributor/reseller is really hurting their brand and should not be allowed to sell it at extortionist prices. In the meantime, you can essentially get the same product from Palma and Palmini for 33% of this price (or great alternatives from Explore Cuisine). I would pay double the price for high-quality, premium products if warranted, so it's not about the money, but the principle here. I feel bad for retailers these days, but this kind of behavior should not be accepted, in any environment!
