Another one from Saar’s Super Saver. I tell ya, that place was a real score. Alas, my trove is dwindling as it does… But no matter – time to cook!

#5514: Vifon Instant Porridge With Shiitake Mushroom – Vietnam
This one comes by way of Jammes of Lakeside, California – thanks again! So, porridge? Instant porridge is very often found on instant noodle aisles in Asian grocery stores. I try to stick to noodles, but when there’s other things adjacent to the might noodle, it bears investigating. With that, let’s give it a try.
#5506: Vifon Hot Chicken Cheese Dried Mix Instant Noodle – Vietnam
Here’s another one I found at Saar’s Super Saver where HT Oaktree used to be. These seemed to be on clearance? I don’t know – but it looked interesting. Cheese-dak clone? Let’s find out.
#5485: Vifon O Smaku Gulaszu – Poland
Thanks again to the kind donor of these from Poland! Gulaszu translates to goulash – here’s a little from Wikipedia –
#5484: Kim Choo KimChook Curry Chicken Flavour – Poland
Anothe Polish variety sent by a kind reader from Poland. This is a Vifon variety, made in Vietnam. Curry, eh? Sounds like a plan – let’s give it a go!
#5483: Vifon Ramen Zupa Błyskawiczna Z Nudlani O Smaku Chili – Poland
To be honest, I’m pretty excited about this one. While Vifon makes this in Vietnam for the Polish market and a spicy flavor, I suspect a more European flavor profile. Let’s give it a try!
#5461: Vifon Golden Chicken Curry – Vietnam
Here’s another from James of Lakeside, California – thanks! I’m very curious about this one – curry is my thing. I had curry last night for dinner. Let’s make some curry!
#5435: Vifon Hot Salted Egg Noodle – Vietnam
Another one sent by James from Lakeside, California – thanks! Very curious about this one and hot it compares to the other salted egg varieties I’ve had in the last while. Let’s cook it up and give it a try.
#5432: Vifon Seafood Tom Yum Flavour – Poland
Here’s one from James of Lakeside, California – thanks! This one’s made in Vietnam for the Poland market. Let’s give it a try!
#5396: Vifon Instant Porridge With Salted Egg – Vietnam
This one came by way of James from Lakeside, California – thanks again! Yes, as usually said ‘I know this isn’t ramen.’ However, you might finbd it near the ramen and likely on the same instant noodle aisle. This one’s particularly interesting as its salted egg flavor. Sounds good to me – let’s give it a go.
#5363: Vifon Golden Chicken Flavor Instant Noodle Soup – Vietnam
Big thanks to James from Lakeside, California for this one. This is a very interesting variety as it looks like the range for Europe – in fact, it does inclue language in Portuguese. However, it isn’t exactly clear where this is meant for specifically, so I’m slapping the local tag on it, Vietnam. I’ve got tofu puff and an expiration date on it coming up shortly, so I’ve decided I’ll be trying to dig through my hamper for varieties I can use some of it with. Let’s give this a go!
#5290: Vifon Hot Beef Pikantine – Poland
This came by way of James from Lakeside, CA – thanks! This is a score – I so rarely get varieties for Europe! This is a beef with Sichuan pepper flavor variety – made in Vietnam for the Polish market. Rad! Let’s give it a whirl!
#5103: Vifon Mien Suon Heo Instant Bean Thread Pork Rib Flavor – Vietnam
I don’t know what I did… Maybe it was the amount of walking I’ve been doing… I do tend to walk as fast as I can… I have a suspiciom it was stretching to grab a bowl off the high shelf that was accompanied by a little feeling and sounded like biting a piece of raw chicken gristle. Whatever it was, I’m really sore. Not fun. Anyways, enough griping – found this one at Evergreen Asian Market in Everett, Washington. What’s more, is the pack green or pink? I thought it was green the whole time. Colors can be really hard for me to see. Better consult an expert. Well, my daughter says it’s pink. Alright – it’s pink. Let’s cook it up.
#5060: Vifon Hoang Gia Spicy Crab Hotpot – Vietnam
Another variety that was sent by James of Lakeside, CA. The last of these Hoang Gia varieties I tried was really pretty good. Curious if this is just going to be the same thing with a little bit of heat. Time to find out!
#5041: Vifon Hoang Gia Banh Da Cua – Vietnam
This comes by way of James from Lakeside, CA – thank you again! So these look interesting – they employ brown rice noodles. Let’s give it a whirl!
#5004: Vifon Vietnamese Style Rice Noodle With Seafood Pho – Vietnam
Think I found this at HMart. This one says it has a stewed seafood sachet which sounds interesting. I also find the global top ten mention – not my global top ten though. Interesting. Let’s give it a try!
#4974: Vifon Instant Bean Thread Crab Flavor – Vietnam
The last bean thread variant I had was really quite nice. Curious how this will be. Let’s give it a whirl!
#4935: Vifon Asian Style Instant Rice Noodles “Phnom Penh” Style – Vietnam
Found this one at Evergreen Asian Market in Everett, Washington. I found quite a few Vietnamese varieties there I looked up in my archives, found a bowl version of this which was my fifth review. Those early early reviews are definitely out of order, but it was definitely one of the first 30 I tried back in 2002-2003. Well, let’s give this one a try.
#4897: Vifon Shrimp Flavor Thai Style Instant Noodles – Vietnam
This one came by way of James from Lakeside, California – thanks again! This is kind of interesting – a global export version. Let’s give it a try!
#4879: Vifon Hot & Sour Shrimp Flavor Asian Style Instant Noodles – Vietnam
Here’s one that haiols from Vietnam for the US market – and 99 more, so it’s getting the label of it’s country of origin. . This came by way of James from Lakeside, California – thank you! Let’s give it a try.
#4326: Vifon Chicken Flavor Asian Style Instant Noodles Soup – Vietnam
Found this export pack over at Evergreen Asian Market in Everett. Let’s give it a go!
Vifon Chicken Flavor Asian Style Instant Noodles Soup – Vietnam
#3746: Vifon Asian Style Instant Noodles With Crab Paste – Vietnam
Here’s one that was sent in by reader James from Lakeside, CA! Thanks! He’s sent quite a few neat varieties over the past year and this follows suit. It contains a retort pouch, kind of the high bar when it comes to instants as it’s like a flexible can with fish or meat in there which makes everything better. This one’s got crab – let give it a try!
#3725: Vifon Instant Seafood Porridge – Vietnam
Every once in a while, I dig through all the noodles and other things I have and this popped up. Actually, the other day I found a slew of expired stuff from 2018 and 2019 – like expired I mean well over a year! Tossed about 25 pounds of stuff, sadly. Luckily I’ve still got a bunch of stuff to review. This one seemed like an interesting one to do since although it’s not an instant noodle, it’s something you’ll eventually run into on the instant noodle aisle. So sit back, relax, don’t have a cow because it’s neither ramen nor a noodle, and check out rice porridge from Vietnam.
#3407: Vifon Viet Cuisine Asian Style Instant Noodle With Mushroom – Vietnam
This one was sent in by a reader named Steven – thanks! So I’ll start off with saying I’m really not a big fan of mushrooms. I’m curious though because this one does contain a retort pouch – but my hopes aren’t up. That’s okay though because I’ve been pleasantly surprised in the past. Let’s give it a go!
Vietnamese Instant Noodles Sent By A Reader
Here’s one sent in by Steven – thanks, man! I rarely get any Vietnamese varieties! Let’s check it out.
#2775: Vifon Garlic Flavour Instant Noodle Soup
I found this one up in Canada at a place called Hen Long Market. Did find a whole lot there, but this was definitely a score. They’re made in Vietnam – however they’re for Poland! Poland! European noodles! Yeah – I’m sure you can tell that makes me happy. Always wish I can find more stuff from/for Europe.
#2728: Vifon Hoang Gia Instant Noodles With Minced Pork
We found this one at a place called Hen Long Market up in Surrey, BC on a trip a few months back. Thanks to my friend Ken for telling me about this place! So this one’s from Vietnam and I don’t often have come across Vietnamese varieties like this one. Usually, I see the same thing again and again and this one is definitely different. Let’s have a look at this minced pork variety!
The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Instant Rice Noodles Of All Time 2017 Edition
Now for the third year, I’m coming out with the latest Top Ten Instant Rice Noodles list. Rice noodles have some benefits as opposed to their fried wheat counterparts. First, they’re virtually fat-free. Also, they’re not fried. Rice noodles are gluten-free by nature, although the ingredients in the sachets that come with these varieties might not be. People ask me for a gluten-free list often, but that would be rather difficult as I’d have to pore over every ingredient list on every review to do this. Well, let’s have a look at these great rice noodle varieties – the best instant rice noodles varieties of the almost 2,500 reviews to date!
#2354: Vifon Viet Cuisine Bun Rieu Cua Sour Crab Soup Instant Rice Vermicelli
Been awhile since I’ve had something Vietnamese… This one sounds tasty – sour crab! This bowl has a lot of things inside, so let’s get to it!
#1906: Vifon Chicken Flavor Asian Style Instant Noodles
With my son Andy over here, it’s usually a good bet that he will like some chicken noodles with some nice garnish. His favorites include fish cake and cheese – which don’t always go with everything. I’d usually choose something like that combo for spicy Korean seafood ramyun. He did indeed get his cheese after the final picture of the noodles were taken today, and so all things are good in the world. Let’s check out this variety from Vietnam!
#1816: Vifon Asian Style Instant Noodles Artificial Beef Flavor
This one came by way of Michael over at EastLand Foods – thanks! I haven’t reviewed a Vietnamese instant noodle in ages it seems like – let’s see what we have here!
Samples From Eastland Foods – 2 of 2!
I remember hearing about ‘the original’ sriracha sauce a while back. It really seemed illogical that the ‘original’ would be made in Southern California, especially since I was in a city called Sriracha in Thailand this May. I found a Bon Appetit article mentioning the true original and some comment by Eastland Foods. I emailed my contact Michael over there to see if he could help me out with a sample – and he really came through (the original sriracha came in the other box) – thanks! Let’s see what’s in these boxes!

#1666: Vifon Curry Instant Noodle With Chicken
Once in a blue moon I find an instant noodle in my hamper of which I have absolutely NO CLUE WHERE IT CAME FROM. I mean, yeah – I know it’s made in Vietnam and that it’s a chicken curry variant, but I have no idea how it got into my hamper. Where did I get it? Hmmm… Well, it needs to be reviewed so here I am. Let’s check it out!
#1522: Vifon Instant Porridge Seafood Flavour
The first thing you’re going to say is ‘porridge isn’t ramen.’ Well aware of that, dude. Then again, these often show up on the instant noodle aisle of an Asian grocery and as such, I thought it could use some attention. This is a Vietnamese seafood porridge, much like what they call congee in China. Here’s what Wikipedia has to say about Vietnamese rice porridge:
#1419: Vifon Ngon-Ngon Mi Tom Yum Thịt Băm Tom Yum Minced Pork Noodle
Here’s one with an interesting name. ‘Ngon-ngon?’ What could that mean? So I plugged ‘ngon-ngon’ into Google translate and it came up with ‘delicious’. I thought it interesting that only one ‘ngon’ came up with ‘tasty.’ I thought then, well hey – what about a trifecta of ‘ngon?’ Well, ‘ngon ngon ngon’ comes up with ‘delicious delicious.’ Anyways, it sounds like these Vifon minced pork tom yum noodles should be delicious. I hope they are! Let’s have a look.
#1329: Vifon Oriental Style instant Noodle Mi Ga Chicken Flavour
Here’s one I got up in Canada in July of last year. Looks like a very basic chicken noodle cup. This one’s from Vietnam, and they usually put some interesting things inside. Let’s have a look!
#1277: Vifon Mì Gà Tìm Chua Cay Hot & Sour Chicken Flavor Instant Noodles
I thought this one interesting; it says hot and sour chicken, but those are shrimp on there too. I decided I’d walk to the store and try something new. Fish balls! I’ve had them in hot pot before, but thought I’d get some golden fish balls with shrimp for this one. Let’s check it out!
#1156: Vifon Oriental Style Instant Vermicelli Sour Crab Flavour Soup
Been some time since I’ve had a crab flavored noodle from Vietnam, so I thought why not today.. Looks cool – let’s check it out!
#951: Vifon Pomidorowa Zupa Błyskawiczna Zmakaronem (Tomato Instant Noodle Soup Mild)
Here’s another great one sent by Joe & Gill from the UK! Thank you again! So this is a product geared towards the Polish market and made in Vietnam! Fascinating… Pomidorowa though; what’s that all about? I asked Wikipedia and got this:
