It’s rice noodles and fish flavor time! Do you have a wristwatch? Does it talk? Does it tell you when it’s rice noodle and fish flavor time? No? Well, why not?

I’m not sure if the shot is affecting me but man I sure feel weird. Anyways, let’s give this one a try! ...see full post

Mom's Dry Noodle Sends Mind Blowing Spicy Crackers!

I regularly receive samples of new noodles from the folks over at Mom’s Dry Noodle in Taiwan. I got to try these a while back as part of a shipment of noodles. I thought I’d give them a try and I was just floored. These things are good! The cracker is light almost like pastry, with baked on cheese, a little tasty onion flavor, and a bit of Sichuan pepper which is a gentle nudge – unless you eat a few and then builds to a little shove! These things are awesome – check ’em out and get some! ...see full post

I first found Baixiang products up in Richmond, BC a number of years ago. Good stuff – always like to try new ones they make.

Well, when asked if I’d tried it I decided to grab the chicken one. Only one pack this time though. Let’s check it out! ...see full post
