Found this one at 99 Ranch Market recently. I’ve had to make trips to Asian grocery stores as my stock has been greatly depleted late. But I have found tha there’s an easy way to counter this – one review per day. I had been working on four per day and getting really far ahead. I published #4583 toda, so I’m about 200 reviews ahead. That’s quite a bit.

#4632: A-Sha Meteor Noodles With Hot & Sour Sauce – Taiwan
Well this sounds interesting. A-Sha pairing it’s Meteor Noodle, which is like a regular noodle with an extra ‘fin’ on top, and a hot and sour flavor. Let’s give it a try on this rainy day.
#4615: NoodleMix Hot & Sour Flavor Konjac Noodle – Taiwan
This time, we have the third of this series – a hot and sour plain konjac noodle. The other two were really quite good – very curious about this one. Let’s find out!
A-Sha Sends Meteor Noodle Trifecta!
Back in 2013, I gained the ire of many Taiwanese netizens when varieties from over there didn’t make the top ten, and some made the bottom ten. In a ‘noodle diplomacy’ initiative, I asked companies who thought they had some special stuff to send it. A-Sha was the first to answer the call, introducing me to the Taiwanese dry noodle. Ten years later, here we are with their Meteor Noodle – a threesome of flavors with a unique noodle.
#4423: Bagu Fresh Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Noodle – China
Hwew’s another of what I like to call ‘flower pots.’ Interesting design on this one. Let’s give it a try.
#4330: Uncle Ya Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Noodles – United States
I know, this is confusing to many. This is indeed made in China, but it’s packaged for the US market. That’s why it gets the United States suffix on the title. Anyways, the last one I had from this brand was quite good – hoping for more good things from this one!
#4267: Hai Chi Jia Sour & Spicy Sweet Potato Noodle – China
Well, folks – this is it. The end of the road on these Hai Chi Jia varieties with Bobby Yip on them. At least the last one I’ve got. They’ve been pretty good – I get it. Definitely. Let’s check this last one out.
#4247: Qinsheng Shaanxi Cold Noodle Sour & Spicy Flavor – China
This is a Shaanxi cold noodle. So, what’s that? Well, it’s from a region of China. It’s really quite good, but a bit of trouble to cook. But I’m going to cook it. You can always watch me battle with it in the episode of Instant Noodle Recipe Time at the bottom of this post. You can also subscribe to my YouTube channel as I have a new episode of the show every single day. Anyways, let’s give it a try!
#4209: Kings Noodle Hot & Sour – China
The last Kings Noodle variety I tried was absolutely phenomenal, so I’ve got high hopes for this one. This is a single serving variety with a whole lot going on in the box – let’s check it out!
#4163: BAMAN Rice Noodles, Hot and Sour – China
Another one I found during sales on Lunar New Year products. Very curious about this one and kind of confused as to how to prepare it, but I’ll figure it out. Let’s give it a look!
#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!
#3798: Nissin Men Shokunin Hot & Sour Tanmen – Japan
Here’s one that was in a box from Zenpop. Their monthly boxes feature a slew of varieties from Japan – use coupon code RAMENRATER for a discount!
#3759: House Of Delicious Taste Hot & Sour Vermicelli – China
Here’s a trippy little flower pot found at the local 99 Ranch Market in Edmonds, WA. These little cow dudes are awesome! Let’s check it out – by the way big thanks to Kyle K. for translation assistance!
#3735: Single Grain Hot & Sour Lava Noodles – China
Here’s another one of the ‘flower pot’ form factor large cups from China. These are generally really quite good so I’ve got high hopes for this one. Plus, it’s dry. I know it has to be. I think. I should say I screwed one of these up recently but I did redo it. Dry varieties when broth is introduced isn’t so wonderful. Let’s give this one a try.
#3701: Single Grain Chongqing Spicy & Sour Rice Noodles – China
Here’s another ‘flower pot’ style big cup from China. I found a bunch of them at 99 Ranch Market recently – I dunno but these are a lot of fun. Let’s check this one out!
#3530: Shi Zu Ren Energy Instant Hot & Sour Flavor Vermicelli – China
Continuing the cavalcade of Chinese varieties lately, here’s a neat one. These cups so far have been a real treat. Hot and sour sounds like it could be really good – or a deluge of Sichuan peppercorn which might not be so great for me personally. But I’ve got high hopes. I think the number six on this one refers to the tons of sachets in there – it’s pretty ridiculous as you’ll see below.
#3420: Shun Savory Dried Noodles – Hot & Sour – China
Well this is interesting. For some reason, the color on this one didn’t come out quite right when I took the picture. It’s a much deeper red and not really orange. Sometimes this happens so at the outset, just know that. These have been interesting so far – I’ve reviewed a couple of others. Let’s give it a try!
#3159: Sichuan Baijia Big Boss Hot & Sour Sweet Potato Vermicelli – China
Found this one up in Canada at Foodyworld and it looks really neat! The kids are really interested in this one but I’m sure it’s definitely off the charts spicy for them. I’m always curious when I see a cartoon or comic character on a product. Definitely looks interesting, that’s for sure! Let’s crack it open!
#2845: LeeZen Hot & Sour Instant Noodles
Found this one up at Hen Long Market up in Canada recently. It was kind of spendy, actually and I remember seeing they had a miso variety too. These are made in Taiwan by Chering Chang- I had a little trouble figuring out what the brand was/what they’re called, but on a bar code search I found them on a Vegan website, so I’m guessing they may be Vegan friendly. Anyways, let’s take a look and give these a try!
Meet The Manufacturer: #2740: Meimen Hot & Sour Noodles Soup
Today, we say goodbye to Meimen and their trifecta of instant noodle varieties as we take a look at their hot & sour variety. As I mentioned previously, all three are Vegan-friendly varieties. Let’s dig into this, the final noodle from Meimen for Meet The Manufacturer.
