This is another one of these noodle and tteokbokki varieties – with an exceedingly funny name. Mac and cheese flavor huh? Sounds good – let’s hit it up!

#4415: Nongshim Vegan Shin Noodle Soup – United States
While at a Korean grocery in Seattle looking for things to make ice cream with, I noticedthis Vegan edition of the Shin cup. So, since I’ve not reviewed it, I got one. Let’s give it a go.
#4412: Sapporo Ichiban Sriracha Yakisoba Japanese Style Noodles – United States
Here’s something new from a company that doesn’t roll out new products every day! I emailed them asking for a sample and here it is. A spicy yakisoba? Interesting – and it looks like it gets prepared in the same fashion as their knockout Chow Mein noodle – let’s get to trying this!
#4411: Nongshim Shin Green Mushroom & Fried Tofu – United States
Big thank you to James from Lakesida, CA for sending these over! This is the second of two new Nongshim Shin varieties recently released. It’s Vegan friendly which appeals to a broader group as time goes on. I’m very curious – I really like their Vgean varieties quite a bit, but generally not a huge fan of mushrooms. So, let’s give it a try and see how it is.
#4409 Norita Dan Dan Noodle Meal Kit – Sichuan Style Hot & Spicy Sauce – United States
This was an interesting find in the Asian foods section of Fred Meyer on 164th in Lynnwood, Washington. Never heard of this brand; only thing I can think of with this name is Pat Norita who played Mister Miyagi in The Karate Kid. He was also on M*A*S*H a few times. Oh snap – that’s Pat Morita not Norita. Anyways, this sounds interesting and worth a try, so let’s give it a try. Made in China for a distributor in Kentucky.
#4408: Dongwon Rapokki With Spicy Sauce – United States
Found this at a store in Seattle called m2m Mart – an offshoot of HMart. Actually, my wife saw it . It looks really neat and I’m a huge fan of rapokki – instant ramyun with tteokbokki (rice cake tubes) and a spicy sauce. Made in Korea, packaged for the US market. Let’s do it to it!
#4407: A-Sha BT21 Universtar Noodle With Galaxy Spicy Sauce – United States
Here is the second variety from the Galaxy Variety Noodle Box – this one’s spicy! As mentioned in a review posted a few days ago, this is a tie in with LINE, a messaging/social app, and A-Sha. Also, the BT21 characters have something to do with Korean popular music group BTS. With that, let’s cook up some noodles.
#4406: Nongshim Premium Shin Gold With Chicken Broth – United States
Well, here we go. In my group Ramen Junkies, Shin reigns supreme. Just a post someone did showing this pack had over a hundred comments real fast. Of course, I’m curious about this one – there’s also a mushroom tofu Shin Green to try as well.
#4404: Samyang Buldak Habanero Lime Artificial Spicy Chicken Flavor Ramen – United States
Recently, I reviewed the pack version of this one and the nice folks at Samyang also sent me the cup version! I’m curious what the difference is going to be, if any. This one’s going to take a spin in the microwave. There should be a mukbang as well. Made in South Korea and packaged for US market sale. Let’s get started!
#4403: Pink Rocket ‘For The Lovely Girls’ Carbonara Rabokki – United States
I must admit, I was surprised. I really think if I was at a store and a lady walked up and I held this product and said ‘I have a pink rocket for you,’ I would most likely get slapped pretty hard. Regardless of the terminology here, I have to say that this one sounds incredibly good. I’m a huge fan of rabokki – that’s a combination of ramyun noodles and tteokbokki, which are thin rice cake tubes. This one’s intermixing with a carbonara flavor – that all sounds really quite good! Definitely excited to try this one – we found it in Seattle at a place called M2M Mart. It’s made in South Korea for the US market. Well, let’s give it a try!
#4402: A-Sha BT21 Universtar Noodle With BT21 Sauce – United States
First off, thanks to the folks at A-Sha USA for sending these over! There are two different boxes, four varieties in total. I thought I’d go with this box first. So, I live under a rock; I’m not exceedingly hip to things that aren’t noodle related or politics related. God, I’m old. I do know there is a Korean group called BTS that’s quite popular, and a messaging service called LINE. Well, LINE did a collab with BTS and made BT21 characters, and A-Sha collaborated with LINE and made these noodles featuring these characters.
#4401: Simply Food Phnom Penh Style Rice Noodles – United States
Here’s one that came in a recent box from Exotic Noods! Exotic Noods delivers monthly boxes with instant noodles varieties from around the world. Go check ’em out and use the coupon code THERAMENRATER for a discount!
#4397: Paldo Stirfried Kimchi Noodles – United States
When I shot the pictures for this one, it was the last of the instant noodles I had on hand for review – until I did 5 unboxing videos yesterday. Should have enough now to get a little way into the 4400s. I’ve had this one before, although it was an incredibly long time ago – back in early 2011. Looks like I liked it. Paldo has had a logo change since then. Let’s check this one out.

#4389: Paldo Teumsae Jjajang Ramen – United States
Well look what we have here – something to mukbang. I haven’t done a mukbang in what seems like forever; I never find anything that’s spicy that I’ve not tried before – however, the folks at BNB Global have been kind enough to send me some samples. Definitely made in Korea, but packaged for US sales. Time to burn. Check out the videos below – the mukbang was released on Christmas 2022 but recorded August 17th, 2022 – I’m pretty far ahead. Let go.
#4388: Kikkoman Noodle Kit With Sauce Black Pepper – United States
Found this one at Uwajimaya too. I’ve tried the spicy garlic before, so figured hey, why not? Let’s give it a go.
#4372: You Us GS Retail Omori Kimchi Stew Ramyun – United States
Okay so this is made in Korea but made for sale in the US market. This one’s made by Paldo and I think the ‘GS’ in the GS Retail mention on the logo has to do with GS Mart, a chain in South Korea. I’m looking forward to a nice kimchi bowl – we shall see!
#4368: Jongga Hot & Spicy Noodle – United States
Here’s another one made in South Korea and packaged for the US market. These use an interesting noodle style that I’ve only seen hailing from South Koreas. Let’s check it out.
#4365: Paldo King Noodle Spicy Chicken Flavor – United States
This one hails from South Korea, but made in this packaging for the US market. They were sent to me by BNB Global – thanks! The mild was good – let’s see how spicy this one is.
#4364: Acecook Saigon Pho Beef Flavor – United States
Here’s the second of these varieties I found recently. I reviewed the beef a couple days ago. Anyways, beef is the more predominate way to enjoy pho. Let’s give this one a try.
#4361: Uncle Ya Chongqing Noodles – United States
Made in China, packaged for US sale. These have been an interesting series of reviews, but this is the last one of the Uncle Ya varieties. Hopefully we end with a good one!
#4358: Acecook Saigon Pho Vietnamese Rice Noodles Chicken – United States
Here’s another one I found over at S-Mart the other day. This one is made for export to the US – it’s kind of interesting – Acecook is a Japanese company with a factory in Vietnam, and Sanyo Foods (makers of Sapporo Ichiban) are distributing it. Looks interesting – let’s give it a try!
#4356: Jongga Seafood Flavored Noodle – United States
Found this one at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington. This one is made in South Korea and packaged for US sale. Interesting style of noodle – let’s check this one out.
#4355: That’s Asia Pad Thai Sauce With Noodles – United States
What’s that? That’s Asia! Never tried anything from this brand before. They’re made in Thailand for the US market. That’s interesting! But is this That’s good? Let’s find out if That’s is.
#4354: Uncle Ya Peas Fired Noodles – United States
Fried or fired? I think fired since the noodles that come with this one aren’t fried. But – do you fry the noodles? Let’s figure this out. Made in China, packaged for US sale.
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten American Instant Noodles Of All Time 2023 Edition
This one usually comes out earlier than now, but it’s been rather busy. There’s a couple more lists coming, so stay tuned. These are my favorite varieties I’ve samples thus far. This list is current as of my 4,300th review. Hopefully there will be more great new varieties to try during the next year to add to the list. If you’re a company with some varieties I’ve not tried, please by all means drop me a line! With that, I present The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten American Instant Noodles Of All Time 2023 Edition.
#4353: Ottogi Buckwheat Chilli Noodle – United States
Here’s one made in South Korea and packaged for the Us market. This is a spicy and sweet cold noodle, perfect for summer months. As I write this, it’s just turned to August. We just had a week of temps above 90 degrees – very hot for the Seattle area – record breaking actually. Today it’s much cooler which is a relief. First day in quite a while since I remember the air conditioning being turned off.
#4352: Paldo King Noodle Mild Chicken Flavor – United States
Thanks to BNB Global for sending this along! So this looks like a ‘king cup’ but I tend to consider them bowls. I’m thawing chicken in the sink right now for this one and the previous two as well. It’s hot – it’s about 8pm and 89 degrees (July 30th) and just been a tough go. We’re about to have a record for most 90+ degree days in the Seattle area ever. It’s gross. So, what do I do? I bake pizzas, cook ramen in boiling water. It’s a challenge. Anyways, hopefully when I do this up tomorrow it’ll be cool in the morning. Let’s hit it!
Low Sodium Dry Noodle From A-Sha At Costco
This is a new one – a pretty regular variety from A-Sha, however they’ve done a lower sodium version. Just over 1,000mg per pack – that’s really quite good. This is/will be available at Costco stores, so snatch some up while you can if you like dry noodles! Thanks to A-Sha for sending this over!
#4343: Simply Food Soursop Tea Noodles – United States
Here we have a Vietnamese variety for the US market. I’m not familiar with Soursop Tea however, so let’s see what that is about – from Wikipedia –
#4342: Simply Asia Sesame Teriyaki Noodle Bowl – United States
Well, simply put, Simply Asia, thus far, things haven’t panned out very well… This is the last of the Simply Asia noodle bowls I’ve got for review, and the last couple were real doozies. Hopefully, this one will break the chain of disappointment! Let’s give it a go.
#4337: A-Sha Crazy Rich Ramen – United States
Okay so first off, a big thanks to A-Sha for sending one of these! Second off, this is a very premium box. Within are noodles, sauce/seasonings, and then some very fancy extras. This box retails for $199. Yeah – that’s a lot. I often tell people when they’re sick there’s nothing better than noodles. Well, that’s maybe if you have influenza. This box however is if you have affluenza. Read on and see what is within!
A-Sha Sends $200 Crazy Rich Ramen!
Yeah, you heard that right – $200! Actually, $199 – but close enough. This is an ultra premium variety. I generally tell people that one of the best thing if you’re sick with the flu is to curl up with a bowl of noodles. Well, that’s influenza. If you’re suffering from the needs associated with affluenza, this might be the noodle you’re looking for. I should mention that at the time of this posting, they’re running a sale of it, so it’s $99 bucks and free shipping. Good timing with the holidays and all. The day after this posts, the review for this will come out. Big thanks to A-Sha for sending this over – let’s check out the unboxing!
Myojo USA Sends FRESH IPPEI-CHAN YAKISOBA & More!
Check this out! Myojo USA makes a slew of different fresh ramen and yakisoba. This time around, it’s personal. I’ve been a fan of the tray style fried noodle yakisoba for years and this particular Ippei-chan Yakisoba is with fresh noodles for the refrigerated section. I’ve tried it and it’s amazing – find it. Check out everything they sent!
James From California Strikes Again
So this guy I tell ya. James from Lakeside, California. He just keeps sending stuff I haven’t tried and for that, a huge thank you. Without the generous donations of companies and readers, I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing so I truly appreciate it. Let’s take a look!
#4324: Simply Asia Spicy Mongolian Noodle Bowl – United States
The last two days of reviewing have been particularly grueling. The kitchen has been pretty warm even before boiling any water; super humid. Not used to it and it’s really quite uncomfortable. But I will continue on of course. Well, the last one of these I tried was really quite odd and so having gotten three varieties in all, I thought I should trudge onward and do the other two. I’m really quite curious what a spicy Mongolian bowl will taste like. Only one way to find out.
#4323: Uncle Ya Sichuan Cold Noodles – United States
Definitely made in China, but definitely packaged only for sale in the United States. This one sounds interesting – let’s cold kick it live.
#4321: Uncle Ya Sour Pepper Beef Flavored Noodles – United States
Another one found at S*Mart in Bellevue, Washington. This is made in China, but definitely packaged for US sale. Let’s give it a try!
#4315: Jayone Aged And Matured Authentic Kimchi Stew Ramen – United States
Note – some weird porn star with the word kimchi in their stage name has apparently decided that this post infringes upon them in some way shape or form. Maybe its the aged or mature part who knows, but it’s quite irritating. I’ve been told I’m in violation of a DMCA issue because of it. As you can see, no porn here. Very weird.
