So I wonder what exactly does Manchurian taste like? I guess we’ll see…
The seasoning is included in the noodle block on this one. So I added the hot water up to the line and gave it 3 minutes.

Seen this around for a long time but have never tried it.Always looked kinda plain and boring.
So I thought after yesterday’s meeting with the super spicy noodles, I thought I’d see if two days in a row of pain would work out pretty well. So Here’s some hot & spicy with soy peptide! Yum!
Warning – IF YOU CAN’T HANDLE HOT AND SPICY FLAVORS, STAY AWAY!!!
So first off, help with translation here would be great. I think the words on the front of the package have a bit more going on than Paldo Teumsae. Teumsae seems to be another company.
MMMMMM – fresh udon! Plus, its being enjoyed while we watch the Maury show and watch people yell and freak out at eachother.
Some more of the Myojo Chukazanmai. It’s still on sale!
A powder and a liquid…
Some very domesticated Nissin Hot & Spicy! Haven’t tried this kind before – hoping it’s good!
Looks interesting – so far I have really enjoyed this line by Myojo quite a bit. Seems pretty gourmet…
So another one of these big two serving bags. The last one wasn’t all that great so I guess we’ll see how this one fares.
So this looks a lot like Nissin’s Yakisoba… Hmmm…. I wonder if it is as good? Better? Let’s see…
Some Kimchi flavor from Thailand! Should be interesting. I’m going to doctor it up today with quite a few ingredients. One thing kind of interesting is that there is currently a cabbage shortage in Korea, where Kimchi is so widely consumed. Here is an article about it – thanks for the info Kit!
So some more of MAMA’s stuff. Very thin noodles – VERY thin!
Chili powder, powder and seasoned oil.
So another day and some more noodles my lady picked for me. This one’s Vietnamese and looks a lot like pho. At least on the package.
So I have seen these all over the place but don’t think I’ve ever tried it. I’ve seen red background ones with a lady that looks like a nurse. Anyways, Kit picked this one out of my ‘vault’ to try today.
So here’s the second that Kit selected for me to try today. I’ve been honestly avoiding this one for quite a while but I left her to decide my noodle sampling fate again today so here we go!
Again today I asked my lady Kit to pick a couple packs of noodles to eat. The first is this one.
Bean thread huh? Hmm – not always my favorite. It tends to be gloppy, mucky stuff that kind of congeals together.
So I asked Kit to pick out two packs of noodles for me to try next. Here’s the first one. I’m curious whether it’ll be any good; the MAMA brand has reviews on here from 1 to 4 stars so we’ll just have to see. By the way, on the back in two places it says tom yum instead of tom yam like it does on the front. I’m going to go with tom yum being correct and the yam being a typo.
So here we go with some Udon for breakfast. I’m going to really modify this one.
Powder and flake.
Second one of these I’ve tried…
Some dry powder, some goopy stuff which I figure is soybean paste.
Okay so its a Seafood Party! Who will we invite? Perhaps eel, piranha and manta ray?
Nope – cuttlefish, anchovy powder, artificial pork flavoring and shrimp extract – party up!!!
Huge noodle bowl! Fresh noodles!
Okay so this is the second one of these I’ve ever had! They are a bit spendier than the regular ones – usually they’re between $2 and $4…
So after seeing an article or two about Indomie’s problems with ‘noodlegate,’ I thought I’d show my support by eating two packages for breakfast. These are some of the best packages of noodles ever – they’re both reviewed on here already, so this is a re-review. 5.0 out of 5.0 stars. Big time – good stuff here!
So Wai Wai not some of this stuff today eh? Crab flavour. Haven’t eaten a whole lot of crab in my life. Curious how it will taste…
So this came from a local snooty natural foods place in Edmonds. We’ll see how it is…
Sesame oil flavor – shouldn’t be too hard to get this stuff right eh? We’ll see how this comes out.
I must admit I laugh a little when I see this brand – I like the bit of Norwegian on the front. Biff!!! Smak!!! Sounds like the old Batman TV show! Well, Let me whip out my Bat ramen pot and cook this stuff up.
Okay so here’s some new stuff from Vffon. Let’s see how it goes! Hoping it tastes good!
So I got these noodles yesterday up the road at 99 Ranch and wow everyone else wanted to be there at the same time! Was absolutely amazing how many people were in that store all at once! Surprisingly, it took maybe 8 or so minutes to get rung up and on my way home with some nice noodles that were on sale!
Green tea noodles? Cool – something unique right? Hmmm… When I opened the package I was greeted with the odor of green tea. Yup – the noodles are infused with green tea powder and the odor is very strong.
So what’s such a big deal about this? Well, I originally did about 52 reviews to start up this website a few years ago and didn’t do much with it after that. I started reviewing hot sauces and that completely took up all my review time. But now with instant noodles so near constantly, the ramen’s called me back and it’s been a lot of fun lately! So 100 reviews since June 20th – that’s almost one a day! Insanity. Not only that, there seems to be no end in sight!
This was a really cheap bowl noodle from H-Mart. Let’s see how it is…
So the veggies and powder soup base was in the big silver packet. The little packet had sesame oil.
Some hot stuff from MAMA here today. We’ll see if it’s really hot and spicy…
Pork porridge. Let me refine that – ARTIFICIAL pork porridge. Those three words have been kind of interesting to say while this little cup has been kicking it around here. But no more. Artificial pork porridge is lunch.
So we’ve been looking at many different little and big groceries around here. It is always fun to find a new one, but I think we’ve scoured the area and gotten to them all. So here’s a couple interesting things to look at. First…
So here’s some unique noodles in a cup from the Philippines! Sotanghon chicken – what’s sotanghon? According to Wikipedia…
So continuing the cavalcade of cup soups, here we have some Maruchan Instant Lunch. Not a very standard rameny flavor but we’ll see how it tastes.
I’ve really enjoyed the chow mein that Sapporo Ichiban put out for years – curious to see how this stacks up…
So second in our series of cup noodles is the old standard. As it says on the packaging, they’ve been making Cup Noodles since 1971 and Nissin was the first to make cup noodles. Creamy chicken is a newer flavor – I’m sure plain chicken was the original.
So we begin a short look at noodle cups. I don’t think I’ve actually had a cup in a long time so this will be some fun stuff. We start with some Sapporo Ichiban shrimp flavor.
