Well this is interesting. I’ve reviewed Cheetos Man n’ Cheese – but that actually was rotini. This is actually a macaroni style pasta. Spicy? I guess we’ll see. Good? Again, I guess we will see – let’s try it!

#5685: Iga Natural Singil-dong Spicy Jjamppong – South Korea
Been holding off on this one until I had some seafood – and now I do. This is a spicy seafood stew called jjambbong – and they tend to be among my favorite varieties from South Korea. I think I found this one at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington across from 99 Ranch Market. Well, let’s begin.
#5684: Immi Black Garlic “Chicken” (New Version) – United States
I reviewed these a long time ago and found the noodle to be very rubbery – low score. More recently, I found them again on discount so I thought I’d give them another try and had the same results. Well, that prompted the owner of the company to reach out and let me know that the one I found at Dollar Tree was not the most recent iteration. He told me the new version is much better and asked if I’d give them a chance for redemption. I don’t like handing out low scores; I like to share the best of the best when I can honestly do so. Well, he sent product and here we are. Let’s find out if this latest version is worthy of redemption! Good luck, Immi!
Immi Sends Updated Product Range For Review
When I initially heard about immi a few years ago I was very curious. A noodle infused with pumpkin seed flour? I want to try that! What followed was disappointment; the noodle was so chewy and rubber band like it squeaked on my teeth. More recently, I saw their product at a Dollar Tree store and decided to give it another try with about the same results. This caught the attention of the founder of the company. He persoinally contacted me and offered to send me the latest iteration of his product range; one newer than what I’d found at Dollar Tree, in hopes I would find it more to my liking. At the date of this video being posted, the next post will be a review of that product and how I feel about it. If I like it, I’ll let you know and if I don’t, I’ll let you know as well. Have a look at the video of the video below and thank you to immi for sending these products along.

#5682: Great Value Ramen Flavored Snack Mix – United States
My lovely wife spotted this at our Walmart Neighborhood Market in Lynnwood, Washington. That place is literally like a meat locker – it’s cold in there. Really cold. So cold I couldn’t handle being in there – no clue why – I’d think it’d be expensive to keep it so damn cold. Anyways, ramen snack mix. Let’s do this.
#5681: Bibigo Sweet & Savory KBBQ Flavor Ramyun Noodles In Sauce – United States

#5679: Samyang Buldak 3x Spicy Artificial Hot Chicken Flavor Noodle – China
What we have here is a hallowed legend in the spicy world – and this one is interesting! It came to me via Hunny’s Ramen – a purveyor of all things Buldak. This is the version sold in China- possibly Taiwan as well, I’m not sure. Nothing like a food product that features bombs on it. Well, once more into the breach? Check the mukbang at the bottom where my son Miles joins me – curious how he will tolerate this one!
The Home Ramen Method: Making Restaurant Quality Bowls At Home

This is the third of the three Shin KPop Demon Hunter cups from South Korea, featuring Zoey and hamburger flavor. Alright, let’s try it.
#5677: Tang Master Spicy Pork Bone Noodle – China
I forgot I still had one of these so happy to give it a try today. It seems like everything I’ve tried recently has for the most part been from South Korea – nothing wrong with that, I just like diversity of the origin country to keep it interesting. Let’s give it a shot!
#5676: Nongshim KPop Demon Hunters Shin Ramyun Mira – United States
So I think a few of us got punked by Nongshim. Why do I say this? Well, the US Nongshim came out with two ranges of the KPDH – one that had three different flavors and one that had three different images on the packaging. I ordered three on Walmart’s website – and got three Shin Ramyun regular style. So here’s that. I’ve got all three versions of the Zoey cup – the Korean local version, the US Shin version, and the US ‘burger hero’ version. Confusing, isn’t it? Well, here’s the regular Mira.
National Noodle Day! #5675: Ippudo Spicy Hakata Ramen – Japan

I’m really excited to try this one. The last two of these varieties have been incredibly good – the balance of cheese has been really quite nice. How’s this one gonna go? Read on.
#5670: Maya Kaimal Chinese Indian Noodles Sweet Chili Crisp – United States
When I saw this in my Facebook feed I was really excited. I use Maya Kaimal simmer sauces constantly – I’ll take some chicken, bell pepper, and sweet onion and get that all going with a touch of oil then dump in the jar of sauce and let it simmer for quite awhile and have it with rice or mashed potatoes for dinner. I usually let it hang out with a black cardamom pod as well. This however is different. This is what you call ‘desi Chinese’ which is Chinese-Indian fusion. Let’s give it a try – it looks like the noodle is a Taiwanese dry noodle so I’m very excited for that as well!
#5669: Tapatio Ramen Noodle Soup Original Flavored Ramen – United States
The happy guy with the large hat is back! I gotta say these are big servings in these packs – a ton of noodles for sure. This is the third of the four the Tapatio folks sent – only one more after this. Let’s cook it up and hit it!
#5668: Nongshim Taekyung Holey Topokki With Noodle Jjajang – South Korea
Topokki is a favorite of mine and topokki with noodle is usually rapokki, however this is with rice noodles. Would it be ripokki? Or wait, they might be sweet potato thread so is it swipokki? I dunno – it’s with noodle. Excited to try, let us begin.
#5666: Ramen Bae Original Flavor Protein Ramen Stir Fry – United States
As I write this, it is April Showers Day and Earth Day. I’m on Earth and indeed it is dumping rain outside. Ramen Bae makes some neat stuff – a myriad of toppings and mixtures to improve your humdrum ramen. This doesn’t look so humdrum though and I’m very curious. Let’s give it a try!
Burung Dara & Best Wok Explodez From Indonesia!

#5664: Immi Black Garlic “Chicken” Flavor Ramen Soup – United States
The last time I tried Immi I was impressed with the broth, however the noodles were rubber bands. A lot of influencers were extolling its virtues, but to me it was literally hard to eat. I know they changed things up a bit, but I never received any samples as the company had sent them originally. I asked for some as I really wanted to give them another chance. Years later, I went to the Grocery Outlet store and lo and behold, they were selling these packs for 99 cents, a fasr cry from the price I’d seen them at previously of upwards of $5. With an open mind, once again we go into the breach.
#5663: Maggi Chinese Spicy Garlic Noodles – United States
Well this is interesting. Not exactly sure where these are being manufactured, but they’re distributed by Nestle USA. I’ve always wondered why Maggi noodles really weren’t here; I mean the 2 Minute Noodles from India aren’t too hard to find, but nothing to speak of other than that. Hopefully this is the beginning of an onslaught of different varieties! Let’s give it a looksie.

#5662: Samyang Buldak Hotter Than My Ex – United States
A big thank you to my son Miles for this one – he’s become such a Buldak fan and alerted me to this one. Pretty crazy how up he is o this stuff… At the bottom will be a mukbang with him so don’t forget to check that out. Let’s give it a try! Oh – by the way, this is just different packaging for a Walmart tie in for Valentines Day. It’s not spicier or different, contrary to some folks on socials.
#5661: Bibigo Spicy Kimchi Ramyun Noodles In Sauce – United States
This looks to be a kimchi dry noodle – which always sounds nice. Tried quite a few over the years and curious what Bibigo will have in store. This is a Korean style ramyun made in Thailand for the US market. Let’s find out.
#5660: Nongshim KPop Demon Hunters Rumi Shin Ramyun – United States
Here’s the US version of the KPop Demon Hunters Rumi cup. I’ve got both the US and Korean versions of the cups from Nongshim. Just a sidenote, this is just a different version of the film Frozen. Think about it. That being said, on with the review.
#5659: Tapatio Ramen Noodle With Soup Carne Asada With Lime – United States
It’s been a week – it seems like everyone around me is battling with health issues. It sucks. Hoping all feel better soon – rooting for ya! Well,maybe a coiuple bites and slurps will de-stress. Let’s see how this one is!
#5658: Tang Master Pork Bone Japanese Rich Broth Ramen Noodle – China
So stoked to find these in the US. Way back I found the bowl versions up in Canada under a different name but the same graphics. Usually great stuff – let’s give it a try!
#5657: Otoki Stir-Fry Cheesy Ramen Cheddar & Mascarpone – United States
The first of this three variety range I tried recently was really excellent – nice cheese and spicy broth. This one sounds very interesting – I wager it’ll either be awesome or real weird. Let’s find out!
The Ramen Rater’;s Top Ten Taiwanese Noodles Of All Time 2026 Edition
I must say – I really miss all of the amazing varieties I used to review from Taiwan. They’d show up quite often and were of such high quality. I’m hoping that maybe in this year, more will arrive to try! If you are producing dry noodle varieties in Taiwan, I really would love to hear from you. That being said, let’s take a look at this new version of The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time 2026 Edition!
