From time to time, James sends me a box of noodles and he usually shoots an email – if he did this time I didn’t see it. This is a neat box of things I’ve not tried! Thank you very much!

A Great Donation From James Of Lakeside, CA
A big thanks for a neat box from James of Lakeside, California. This guy – he sends me boxes from time to time and checks out what I’ve reviewed and rarely is there anything I’ve tried. It’s really interesting what’s available here and what he’s got access to that I’ve never seen here. Have a look!
James From California Strikes Again
So this guy I tell ya. James from Lakeside, California. He just keeps sending stuff I haven’t tried and for that, a huge thank you. Without the generous donations of companies and readers, I wouldn’t be doing what I’m doing so I truly appreciate it. Let’s take a look!
#4144: Sugakiya Nagoya Kishimen – Japan
Here’s another one from James of Lakeside, CA – thanks again! This one seems to be a dry variety – drain spouts usually denote this. From the iconography it’s a steep, drain, pouch affair but that seems a little weird for this one. But, it’s the most logical steps for preparation I can grok from what I see, so… Let’s give it a try!
#4135: Menraku Japanese Ramen “Chili Tomato” Taste – United States
I got two of these in quick succession – the first from James in Lakside, CA and the other from a subscription box out of California as well from Exotic Noods. If you want to get one of their boxes, head over and use the coupon code THERAMENRATER and get a nice discount – thank to you both for sending these!
#4120: MIT Shallot Sauce Dry Noodle – Taiwan
Thanks to James from Lakeside, CA for shooting these over – awesome! Haven’t seen this brand before – I don’t think they have anything to do with the college… Sounds good though; I generally enjoy anything shallot sauce flavor. Let’s give it a go!

A Donation From James Of Lakeside, CA
Over the past few years, a guy named James in Lakeside, California has repeatedly sent me boxes of noodles.

Big thanks and my appreciation to James! Never fails to surprise me when readers are willing to send noodles in for review. Let’s take a look!
#3812: Snapdragon Vietnamese Vegetable Pho – United States
These came by way of James from Lakeside California and looks like Snapdragon has dressed up their packaging yet again. I will admit I’ve never been exceedingly enthralled with their range, save a couple of varieties. Not only that, I’m rarely enthused about any pho instants I’ve tried. But I’m in the mood so these at least have that going for them. Let’s give them a try!
Another Donation From James In Lakeside, California!
A while back I got a few boxes of donations from a reader in Lakeside, California named James. Well, he’s struck again and sent another box – thanks!

#3487: Itomen Sansai Udon – Japan
Here’s one from the trove of varieties sent by James from California – thanks again! I swear I had tried this but nope – never had. Let’s check it out!
#3478: Menraku Japanese Ramen “Seafood Tonkotsu” Taste – United States
This one comes by way of James in Lakeside, CA. Thanks! Okay so yer it’s made in Japan but this is obviously packaged for US sale. I generally classify things for the country you’ll be able to buy them in. If it’s an export product that would go to a region, say Europe, it’d get given the originating country’s name at the end of the title. So there.

Here’s one of the few I have left that were sent by James B. of the Netherlands – thanks again! I’m real curious whether this will have a strong tandoori chicken flavor or just a nice spicy mixture. I guess there’s only one way to find out! Let’s crack open the pack and have a look!
#1923: Conimex Oriental Noodles Teriyaki
