#5820: Nissin Cup Noodles Vampire Noodles Hot Garlic Chicken Ramen Noodles In Sauce - United States

Well happy Halloween. I must thank my wife and mother in law for finding these. NONE of our Walmart stores locally have them and they don’t even sell them on the Walmart website – it’s VERY irritating. On eBay they wanted an atrocious price for them. I think the price on Amazon was atrocious enough. So yeah; four Walmarts and a wasted afternoon over 3 weeks after they were supposed to be out. We didn’t get the two BBQ limited editions around here either which was equally irritating. Anyways, this sounds really interesting. Let’s cook. ...see full post

#5802: Immi Black Garlic "Chickln" (New Version) - United States

I reviewed these a long time ago and found the noodle to be very rubbery – low score. More recently, I found them again on discount so I thought I’d give them another try and had the same results. Well, that prompted the owner of the company to reach out and let me know that the one I found at Dollar Tree was not the most recent iteration. He told me the new version is much better and asked if I’d give them a chance for redemption. I don’t like handing out low scores; I like to share the best of the best when I can honestly do so. Well, he sent product and here we are. Let’s find out if this latest version is worthy of redemption! Good luck, Immi! ...see full post

#5664: Immi Black Garlic "Chicken" Flavor Ramen Soup - United States

The last time I tried Immi I was impressed with the broth, however the noodles were rubber bands. A lot of influencers were extolling its virtues, but to me it was literally hard to eat. I know they changed things up a bit, but I never received any samples as the company had sent them originally. I asked for some as I really wanted to give them another chance. Years later, I went to the Grocery Outlet store and lo and behold, they were selling these packs for 99 cents, a fasr cry from the price I’d seen them at previously of upwards of $5. With an open mind, once again we go into the breach. ...see full post

#5649: Tapatio Ramen Noodle Soup Chicken Flavored Ramen - United States

When we get boneless skinless chicken, the pieces are massive. So, I usually roll up my sleeves (I hate that term) and get all meat-mucky, cutting and bagging then tossing in the freezer. I do a lot of small pieces for reviews, but some not. Yesterday’s review  employed a larger than necessary piece, so I have leftovers. I figured I’d better find a chicken variety and here’s the one I picked. Sounded nice – here we go! ...see full post

#5546: Paldo Kokomen Instant Noodle With Chicken Flavored Spicy Soup - United States

I’m really happy about finding this one at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington! If you’ve not tried it, I highly recommend it – as long as the new packaging doesn’t mean new recipe at least. This came out quite a while back after a Korean comedian – Lee Kyung Kyu I believe – mentioned it. This is a jalapeno and chicken flavored broth variety. What’s interesting is that it does not have chicken in this one where it once did. It’s made in South Korea – so they would export US chicken to Korea, process it, then send it back in the product. Crazy, eh? Anyways, let’s cook it up! ...see full post

#5441: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup - United States

Another one I found at Safeway which wasn’t there the day before when I found that Hot Pot Fusion one I reviewed this week. I’ve got strong opinions on this one. If it is indeed rich and savory, that’s what should be concentrated on. I don’t see people looking to instant noodle cups for protein; they’re health conscious. Another point on the whole of the big ‘protein push’ is that chicken is gram for gram protein. You sauté up a small piece of chicken breast – it’s ALL protein. I’ve seen a lot of things come and go in the instant noodle world and I hate to say it, but this looks like it’ll be gone possibly before this posts. But hey – it’s a competitive market and companies have to throw a lot of products at the wall to see which ones stick. Good luck – maybe it will, but I have my doubts. ...see full post

#5306: Dragon Express Ramen Low Sodium Chicken Flavor - United States

Big thanks to James from Lakeside California for this. Okay first things first. He found this at Grocery Outlet in California. Yesterday, I walked over tot our local one in hopes that they might have some other varieties. They had the ones he sent – all the exact same ones. Second, these are definitely what are known as prison ramen; they have the earmarks with the clear packaging which makes it awful hard to smuggle and contraband using the packs. Well, it says it is made in the US so the next question – who makes these? This image of a sachet of Maruchan Creamy Chicken shows the text and font same as on these. But why? They already have a line of products for corrections. Anyways, I’m leaning towards them being the manufacturer – could be totally wrong though. Anyways, let’s give it a try! ...see full post

#5240: Ottogi Chicken Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup - United States

Well, as I type this is January 30th, 2025. Just had almost a full week of kids being sick and at the tail end while the kids are now back to school, we’ve got a cold. Feels like I got punched in the nose, my eyes are drippy, and I feel beat. Chicken instant noodles sound like a nice restorative, although I’ve got to go to the store and get scallions this morning. I feel the whole ‘I don’t want to do anything’ voice in my head but I learned a while back that if you listen to that voice, it’ll get its way. So onward! This one was sent by James from Lakeside, California – thanks again! I did get another from this interesting Ottogi range a while back. I want to say this is one that ends up in Mexico often – unsure. Anyways, on with it. ...see full post
