I’m hoping that this variety does not do to the idea or history of Chinese cuisine what they did to Japanese teriyaki. Chow mein and teriyaki are generally not known to have soup, or a ton of gravy in excess. Let’s find out what we got here, folks.

#4249: Naked Thai-Style Coconut & Lemongrass Ramen Noodles – United Kingdom
#424
Here’s one I dug out of a box. Pretty sure I found this at a grocery store while hunting for pumpkin noodles a few months back. I’ve tried some of these and they’ve been pretty good honestly. Let’s give this one a shot.
#4159: Naked Chinese Style Hot & Sour Ramen Noodles – United Kingdom
Found these in Bellevue, Washington at a Walmart during the Great Hunt for Pumpkin Spice Cup Noodles of Fall 2021. Definitiely something interesting to check out. These are in a little pouch – have tried the cup version of this but the pouch sounds interesting – let’s check it out!
#4147: Naked Chinese Style Firecracker – United Kingdom
Found this one during my hunt for the pumpkin spice noodles of Fall 2021. Anyways, yeah these sound interesting. I tried the Orange Chicken variety and found them compelling. This one has a grip of peppers denoting that it’s spicy – guess we’ll see!

Meet The Manufacturer: #1961: Kabuto Noodles Chicken Ramen
Yesterday, I reviewed a chilli chicken offering from Kabuto Noodles. Today, its just chicken ramen. I’m curious if it will just be a less spicy taste or something completely different (yesterday’s pot mentioned it having a lime element while this does not). Either way, sounds good to me. By the way – in the United Kingdom, they refer to noodle cups as noodle pots! Let’s go!
Meet The Manufacturer: #1960: Kabuto Noodles Chilli Chicken Ramen
Chilli chicken, eh? This sounds interesting – not a flavor I think I’ve seen coming out of the UK before (and I’ve seen a lot of interesting ones). By the way – if you’re wondering what coriander is, it’s the same thing as cilantro. Okay – let’s have a look inside this neat ‘pot’ of noodles!
#1403: Tesco Everyday Value Chicken & Mushroom Flavour Noodles
Here’s one that Joe B. and Sarah B. sent me from Nottingham, UK – thanks! Tesco’s a big grocery store chain in England. One thing I’ve found that is a little difficult are European nutrition facts on instant noodles. It’s odd; they like to do a per 100g showing, then a per serving. The number often seem ridiculously off; a lot of the time it’s a calorie vs joule issue (yep – they use a different measure of energy over there too). Let”s see how this chicken and mushroom flavor cup goes!
#1373: Tesco Everyday Value Beef & Tomato Flavour Noodles
British noodles! Thought maybe this would be a good one to let my son try today. Not spicy (at least I don’t think it will be) and pretty mellow. Right now he’s knee-deep in LEGO blocks and listening to a video game documentary. A good day! Let’s check this one out.
#1338: Batchelors Super Noodles Peppered Steak Flavour
Here’s one that Joe B. and Sarah B. sent me from Nottingham, UK – thanks! I’m getting towards the end of the noodles that they sent – been a lot of fun trying all sorts of British varieties! I usually get some cues on what I’ll ad at the end from a picture on the front of a package, but this one doesn’t have any ‘suggested serving’ or anything like that, so I have to go with my gut. I looked around on Google for ‘peppered steak British’ and found quite a few leads. The peppered steak there looks to be basically steak with a decent amount of black pepper. Sound simple enough. Of course, things like a dash of brandy aren’t readily available, so I think pepper is going to be my friend for this one. Anyways, let’s see what’s within.
