 They're really a chewy texture. So they say you can cut them. I didn't cut them. I left them whole like spaghetti noodles. But you really, really have to chew. And I could see how like you could choke on them. Some say like after, of course, after I ate the whole bag, which was two servings and only 10 calories, I read and it's like, oh, some people can have intestinal. If you have stomach issues, like they don't advise eating them because things could not go well in there.
