I got these at Costco, and I swear, I cannot stop eating them.

One package is supposed to have 5 servings, and I plow through them all.

What is it?

I have a seaweed intolerance so I have to use their sister product, I Can't Believe It's Not Seaweed.
-
What is it?
??? Weed that grows in the sea? :d
It looks like the type that they wrap sushi in, but in small squares.
I also would like to believe that it's good for you, but am worried that I'm ODing on the stuff.

Well, I mean...how is it prepared? Is it a meal, or a snack? Is it like pasta? Is it stringy? I have never had the stuff.

It's a snack. Sort of like a cracker. You can eat it whole or crumble it over a salad or stirfry or whatever. It comes in a thin sheet and has been toasted so it's crispy and salted so it's salty.

I think you should try not to eat crazy amounts of it because the iodine can mess with your thyroid? I love it too.

nuh-uh, she said this:
Seaweed snacks have been a staple in the Korean diet for centuries but are now going to help revolutionize the way Americans snack.
a staple in the Korean diet =\= a Korean snack. :P
you can of course eat it as a snack.
hell, you can eat it in any way you see fit (well, duh).
but trust me, it goes really well with steaming hot rice (fresh off the rice cooker).
-
No argument about that here!
I don't like the "korean seaweed snack" thing. They taste like salty iodine to me. Blech. I much prefer them served in traditional fashion. But... people seem to love these things and I have no problem with that, either.

my DH is eating a pack of TJ's version next to me as I type this. he's hooked. I like the wasabi flavored but we're out and I don't feel like driving to Greenville this week.
-
I think they're foul but the triplets will destroy them like nobody's business! They love them and devour packs at a time when I buy them

My BIL the algologist is a consultant to the Japanese seaweed industry. Years ago he was attending a conference in DC and crashed with us. I still remember the package of seaweed he pulled out at dinner one night. It was like a little pad of Post-its, but the pages were sheets of pressed seaweed. He told me that seaweed was the "next big thing," and I nodded politely. All I could think of was that scene in The Graduate when somebody was telling Dustin Hoffman that the future was "plastics." Yeah, right.
BIL turned out to be right, much to my dismay. Oh well, at least I invested in Xerox, Microsoft, and Apple when the getting was good.

Yes, this is how I have had seaweed before. Not in the packaged variety. Hence my original question.

It's the same stuff. You get squares of seaweed stacked on a plastic sleeve.

I remember when i was in acupuncture school and so many of my classmates would snack on Dulse, which is another kind of seaweed. I just could never do it. Love sushi, love wakame in my soup, but just could not eat it straight up.

1. Seaweed has a sharply bitter taste to me - I can only tolerate it when it's wrapped in rice and seafood.
-
Dulse is much more intense than nori to me. It is good for you though :D
-
dillisk is delicious with potatoes and garlic. just fyi.
