#3551: Vite Ramen Sichuan Chili Crisp Instant Noodle Soup v1.2 PROTOTYPE - United States

Here’s we’ve got something new – a mashup of Vite Ramen and Fly By Jing Sichuan Chili Crisp! It’s kind of funny – I had just discovered chili crisp a week or two before I ended up having a conversation with the guys at Vite Kitchens about it. Turned out they were collaborating with Fly By Jing on this and sent me a bottle of it – good stuff!

This list is current as of review number 3058. These are based solely on my personal taste and opinion. Some folks don’t like that and I was recently lectured that a company didn’t want to send samples because they were afraid I might not like their product and that I couldn’t be persuaded to give on company a better review over another. This made me proud I’m doing my job right. Let’s check the top ten Japanese list! ...see full post
