#5542: Smart Way Beef Flavor Ramen Noodle Soup - United States

Okay, this is a big deal I think. I know – it looks very generic; very plain. But this isn’t what Ii see. This is a product of Brazil. It’s a Kroger store brand. Who is making this for them? I’ve no idea. I look at the big players in the Brazilian instant noodle market and mainly see a lot of Nissin Miojo stuff. However, the noodle and sachet style doesn’t lean me in that direction. A six pack – and it’s cheap – I think it was $4 for 2 of these – so I got both this and the chicken yesterday.  I’ve also noticed that on the directions, it’s referring this noodle as pasta. Pasta? Hmm. ...see full post

#5362: Cheetos Mac'n Cheese Buffalo - United States

Today is a special day! The video at the bottom will be my 2,600th episode of Instant Noodle Recipe Time. Yep – I’m done a ton of em and just keep doing em. I figured I would review this ramen. You might say ‘that’s not ramen.’ Well, in the United States it qualifies. I cite the Totino’s Pizza Ramen. It calls itself ramen however on the ingredients it says it is paste. This says it’s macaroni but it’s clearly rotini. It recommends topping with broccoli, shredded cheese, and Cheetos. Let’s cook up this ramen with buffalo sauce flavor and go straight to hell. ...see full post

#5140: Cheetos Mac'N Cheese Box Of Bones Limited Edition - United States

Well, Halloween is here and so I like to do something or other to celebrate it here. No, this is not ramen or an instant, but it is a kind of noodle thing. These are macaroni in the shapes required to make a little skeleton. Kind of cool. I think. As it turns out,  I saw it at the same place I got my pack for review #5000. Let us begin. ...see full post

#4780: Samyang Tangle Bulgogi Alfredo Tangluccine - United States

Found this one recently at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington. I rarely buy a multipack, but I found this one so compelling that I figured why not. Bulgogi is a delectable dish which usually isn’t represented well when not in it’s original form, and marrying it to something as western as an alfredo pasta seemed really fascinating – if it works. Let’s see if they can manage to balance the authenticity of both dishes well. ...see full post

#4150: 7 Select Tomato Basil Pasta Cup - United States

What an interesting thing! You might be surprised to know that while 7 Eleven stores started in the United States, they’re owned and headquartered in Japan now. 7 Select is a range you see over there quite a bit but here it seems to be a new thing. So, a convenient pasta cup. This sounds like fun. It promises to be the finest… Oh man I still feel like crap… I think we all have the ‘rona. This isn’t fun that’s for sure. But hey let’s check this out! ...see full post

#3736: Tasty.ly Quick Pasta Cheezy - Malaysia

I’ve been reviewing a lot of these Kay’s and Tasty.ly products recently – it’s pretty neat! I mean, Malaysia isn’t the first place you think of when you think of macaroni and cheese, is it? I really liked the Creamy variety so guessing this is going to be good too. Let’s find out! ...see full post

#3713: Kay’s Instant Macaroni Chicken Soup – Malaysia

#3713: Kay's Instant Macaroni Chicken Soup - Malaysia

There’s been a lot of comment in the Instant Noodles – The Ramen Rater Facebook lately concerning ramen vs pasta. This most certainly is pasta. However, a chicken macaroni soup from Malaysia definitely an interesting thing. Plus it’s instant. Let’s give it a try! ...see full post

#3303: Chil Kab Farm Products Spicy Sujebi - Seafood Flavor - South Korea

Found this one yesterday at Boo Han Market in Edmonds, Washington. So it had a sticker on the side which pulled a bit off but I can still make out the cooking instructions from what’s left. The sticker mentioned ‘Korean pasta’ which I found compelling. This is sujebi – let’s see what Wikipedia has to say – ...see full post

#1290: Nongshim Sain Sain Garlic Teriyaki Fresh Cooked Udon Pasta

No comments

In March of 2012, I tried this new Garlic Teriyaki Udon by Nongshim – review #683. It was really great stuff – my wife Kit absolutely loved it (she doesn’t usually go crazy like I do for noodles, but this one was her fave). Well, a little while later, it was discontinued. Well, now it’s back and a little different. The first one had a whopping 3040mg of sodium per pack, but this new one has only 720mg for the whole thing. Let’s see how this one stacks up against the old version. ...see full post
