While this post will publish long after today, I would like to congratulate the people of India on this day! Why? Well, India has landed a craft on the moon! Yeah! I’ve always been into both science fiction as well as science fact. This is very cool stuff – and it looks like there’s a new space race going on currently. Unfortunately, a Russian lander crashed on the moon which is an expensive setback – a couple days ago. Can’t wait to see what the future is like a hundred years from now (don’t worry – I’ll still be around reviewing instant noodles).

#4345: Ching’s Secret Pad Thai Noodles Green Curry – India
I’m really curious about this one – I don’t usually get a lot of Indian varieties lately. Found these at an Indian grocery in Bellevue, Washington. It says it cooks in 15 minutes? Okay – let’s give it a try.
#2646: Ching’s Secret Schezwan Instant Noodles
I remember the first time I heard about Ching’s Secret – I was very curious about this whole concept of Chinese food in India. As it turns out ‘Desi Chinese’ is kind of like American Chinese food insofar as Chinese bringing their food to a foreign country and adapting it to the tastes of the locals in order to sell more of it. This is a four pack and I would now like to make a formal complaint.
#2576: Ching’s Secret Singapore Curry Instant Noodles
Well, I found quite a few of these new packaged versions recently at an Indian market in Bellevue, Washington. Now, this is what they call ‘Desi Chinese’ food. What’s that? Let’s ask Wikipedia –
#2556: Ching’s Secret Hot Garlic Instant Noodles
Okay for a couple years now, the old pack version of Ching’s Secret Hot Garlic has been on The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time list. I heard through the grapevine though that Hot Garlic didn’t seem that hot to another review site, Ramen Regret Rater. So, I thought I’d hunt it down to give it another try.
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time 2016 Edition
Every year, I review a ton of instant noodles – and every year I come out with quite a few lists. This list tends to change the least of all my lists – I’ve had a lot of spicy instant noodles in my time and just seems like nobody’s getting any spicier products to market. Could be that they don’t want to melt people’s faces off perhaps. Anyways, here’s this year’s list – the spiciest varieties out of over 2,100 reviews. Enjoy – if you dare!
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time 2015 Edition
As many might know, I started The Ramen Rater (click to see the old site) in 2002 and did about 60 reviews. Then, I turned my attention to spicy hot sauces with The Sauce Rater. In 2010, I resumed my instant noodle reviewing. I’ve long been a fan of the spicy side of things – strong heat and good flavor are a couple of my favorite things. Let’s have a look at the absolutely hottest varieties I’ve found in my over 1,700 reviews of instant noodles from around the world in this year’s The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Spiciest Instant Noodles Of All Time 2015 Edition.
#1556: Ching’s Secret Hot Garlic Instant Noodles
Have you ever taken a clove of garlic and eaten it straight? I would have to say that I’ve done it with a few different varieties. Some types of garlic are extremely hot and spicy, rivaling chilli peppers. They’re no joke and they burn like fire! I had a bite of this tiny little one once – I think it was a Himalayan variant – and it was so freaking hot! Well, I like spicy things and I like garlic, so this one really piques my interest. Let’s check out this Ching’s Secret Hot Garlic and see if we can find out if the secret is hot or not.
#1519: Ching’s Secret Manchurian Instant Noodles
Here’s a brand I’ve been hoping to review for a while but have had a seriously hard time finding. Ching’s Secret is a company from India that produces Chinese inspired foods. This flavor is a little puzzling though – Manchurian? What flavor is that? I consulted Wikipedia and got some information:
