#1132: Tesco Everyday Value Spicy Curry Flavour Noodles
Here’s a cup I got today that was sent to me by Joe B. from the UK – thanks! Curry. Sounds good to me! Turns out Tesco is a big grocery chain in the UK. Let’s check this one out.
#1127: Campbell’s Hearty Noodles Chicken Flavour
Here’s another one from T&T Supermarket up in Canada! To be honest, I was absolutely stoked to find this one; I’ve seen pics of the Campbell’s varieties in the past, but they’re not available in the United States as far as I know. Let’s check out this little chicken cup.
#1084: Mr. Noodles Noodles In A Cup Chicken Simulated Flavour
Today’s Father’s Day and my son Andy is over. Thought we’d have some noodles and this is the one he picked. He usually sticks to chicken flavored ones. Let’s check it out!
#1049: Mr Noodles Bowl Beef Simulated Flavour
Yep – another one from Canada. I really like how it says ‘simulated flavor.’ It’s a beef simulator! Let’s try it.
#1009: Western Family Instant Noodles In A Cup Oriental
Here’s another that we got in Canada on my birthday. Here in the area I live, Western Family is a store brand, but never have I seen an instant noodle of theirs. Honestly, I haven’t seen any store brand instants here – not that they don’t exist. Well, let’s check out these noodles in a cup!
#1002: Mr. Noodles Bowl Spicy Chicken Simulated Flavour
On my birthday, my wife took me up to Canada and I got 55 new varieties of instant to review – here’s one of them! I’ve reviewed Mr. Noodles before and found them to be marginal at best. Let’s see how the bowl version here goes!
#999: Pot Noodle Tony’s Doner Kebab
Wow – here we are; this is the precipice of a very large psychological number! First things first – thanks to Joe & Gil of the UK for sending such a nice mix of interesting noodles! Okay so this is a Pot Noodle – they’re always interesting as the British seem to come up with some really interesting flavors to lend to instant noodles and this is definitely one of them. Doner Kebab. So, what is a Doner Kebab? Well, click here for the seriously huge amount of info from Wikipedia,. Basically what they’re saying is that you have a meat that’s roasted on a vertical spit and then sliced thin and garnished with tomato, lettuce, onion and other things. At least that’s what I’m getting from it. The packaging mentions this is lamb flavor, but beef is also common (and what I’ll use as a garnish).
#970: Meet The Manufacturer: Annie Chun’s Noodle Express Spicy Szechuan
As we are starting to wind down the Annie Chun’s Meet The Manufacturer (there are only two left), we find the last Noodle Express I have – Spicy Szechuan. It mentions that the Szechuan sauce is made with gochujang, a Korean standard as far as spicy fare goes. Let’s check it out.
Re-Review: Meet The Manufacturer: Annie Chun’s Ramen House Soy Ginger Ramen
Here’s one I reviewed a long time ago. Soy ginger sounds good to me! Let’s check it out.
#946: Dr. McDougall’s Right Foods Vegan Chicken Ramen

#922: Sunlee Shitake Mushroom Instant Vermicelli
Here’s one we got during our summer vacation. Found it at the Uwajimaya in Beaverton, Oregon. Mushrooms… Well, Let’s give it a go!
#898: Long Kow’s Crystal Noodle Soup Savory Shoyu
Here’s one I don’t have high hopes for as I’ve had a few other ones that weren’t very enjoyable in the past. But hey – this could be really awesome, right? I’m hoping so!
#839: CJ CheilJedang Mild Bean Curd Stew
Saw this at H Mart a while back and it piqued my curiosity. Was kind of pricy for a little cup – close to $3… Wonder what’s in there.
#813: Mr. Noodles Spicy Chicken Simulated Flavour Instant Noodles
Again, I first want to thank Mark K. and Erika L. for getting these to me! You might be wondering why I’m reviewing another Mr. Noodles so soon – I review the Vegetable flavor one yesterday. Well, I received this email yesterday:
#811: Mr. Noodles Vegetable Flavour Instant Noodles
Time for more Canadian ramen! Thanks go to Mark K. and Erika L. for getting these to me! I notice on this one it doesn’t say ‘simulated flavour,’ so I guess it does actually taste like vegetables. Well, we’ll see!
#805: Acecook Super Big Ramen Soy Sauce Flavor Japanese Style Instant Noodle
So the last one of these I had was super salty. hoping this one isn’t going to be like that; I couldn’t really eat the last one because of it.

Here’s one that Michelle L. of New York sent a while back. Looks like it should be good!

Here’s another one of the Fashion Food varieties.
The noodle block.
Dry seasoning packet

#691: Mamee Express Cup Vegetarian Flavour
Here’s another Mamee my sis brought me back from Canada. Let’s give it a whirl.
#668: Saigon Ve Wong Kung-Fu Instant Noodles Vegetarian flavor
Thought I’d eat this before it got too far out of date. Got it at 99 Ranch Market – my wife spotted it and lo and behold, I hadn’t reviewed it. Here we go…
#666: Lishan Food Mfg Co. Ltd. Chinese Instant Noodle
This has to be one of the strangest instant noodles I’ve seen. No instructions. Strange packets. Here we go with #666!
#635: Ottogi Buckwheat Bibim Ramyon
Otay! It’s time for some cold noodles – not usually my favorite but we’ll just have to give them a try.

#630: Ve Wong Kung-Fu Artificial Mushroom Pork Flavor Instant Oriental Noodle Soup
Here’s one that has been in the noodle bin since the trip to California my wife and son and I took in July! Time to eat. Mushroom pork just didn’t sound too good, but you know me, I have to try it.
#620: Vifon Phu Gia Mien Instant Bean Thread Bamboo Shoot & Artificial Pork Flavor
Another ‘bottom of the hamper’ pick. Not a huge fan of the bean thread – you surely know that if you’re a follower of this blog. Really hoping to become one though – maybe pork will change my view.
#616: Maggi Thrillin’ Curry 2 Minute Noodles
Here’s one that was at the bottom of the ramen hamper so needed immediate attention today. Curry is one of my favorite flavors! I hope this is good stuff!
#612: Maruchan Yakisoba Spicy Chicken Flavor Homestyle Japanese Noodles
Here’s one that we got at a northern Oregon Chevron of all places. Man, I’m still jonesin’ to try the Beef Taco and Jalapeno Cheddar flavors!!!
#611: Batchelors Super Noodles Low Fat Sweet Thai Chili Flavour
This is the last of the Super Noodles sent by Cindy C. of England. Thanks again!
So today is my wife and I’s second anniversary. No, not a wedding anniversary – we got married in July. This is our two year ‘Click-I-Versary.” You see, we met on an online dating website! Two years ago today she clicked a button on my profile and let me know she liked me. I did the same. The chatted online for a little bit and then called and talked to each other for many hours – the rest is history! I can honestly say I’ve never been happier in my life. Love you, Kitten!

#604: Batchelors Super Noodles Low Fat Chicken & Herb Flavour
This one came from Cindy C. of England! Thanks Cindy- if you have a picture of where you’ve stuck your stickers, send it along, please! This is the first of the low fat Super Noodles I’ll be trying – I think there’s one or two more.
#596: Thai Kitchen Lemongrass & Chili Instant Rice Noodle Soup
Yeah, I know – two ramens in one day? But these be small. Anyways, I wanted to see if switching back to a different camera worked better. I’m still unsure… Lemongrass and chili eh? Okay let’s do this.
#587: Sunlight Steam Vermicelli
The last time I had a bag of instant noodles like this I had a horrible experience; a ball of glued together, sticky, nasty funk. This time I’m a little more experienced and wiser and going to try a different method of attack.
#585: Ve Wong Artificial Onion Flavor Instant Bean Thread Bowl
And on we go with the onslaught of instant noodles that I’ve not gotten to as they don’t look all that tasty. Today we start with some onion flavored bean thread.
#579: Baijia Sichuan Pickled Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Thread
Baijia has been a brand I loathe thus far. Let’s see what we have in this one.
Two packets – liquid base on left and powdered base on right.
#573: Noah Foods Phoya Chicken Flavor
You hungry? Ya! What joo hungry pho? Phoya? Phoshizzle… I dunno – I think they think they’re really clever with this one. So I’ll review it pho ya….
