I have to be honest. I was not impressed with these noodles. The initial smell I got was off-putting.

Produced in the United States. Distributed by Japan.

House sauce packet and square noodle brick

The flavor is dominated by a very strong sweet soy sauce taste. It had a slight chemical taste to it. It’s mostly a mix of soy sauce, MSG, and sugar without any complexity.

The noodles weren’t too bad, but the flavor was overwhelming.

To make this bowl better I would add some shredded cabbage for a crunch and to cut through the chemical taste. I would also add a lot of chili oil to introduce spice.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you determine the spice level?

For the spice level, my friend James, who taste tests the ramens with me, gives his rating out of 5 based on his experience with the heat. My own spice tolerance tends to be higher than most, so James’s rating gives a more general sense of the spiciness. Keep in mind that spice is still subjective, so what’s mild for him might be spicy for you, and vice versa!

What does “Broth Viscosity” mean?

That’s how thick or thin the broth is. A 1/5 would be very watery, while a 5/5 would be super thick and almost syrupy.

How do you rate “Noodle Thickness”?

This is just a general gauge of how thick the noodles are compared to other instant ramen noodles I’ve tried. A 1/5 would be very thin, like vermicelli, and a 5/5 would be very thick and wide.

What do you mean by “Noodle Type”?

Here, I’m just describing the style or texture of the noodles, like “udon-like” for a chewy and thick noodle, or “thin and curly” for a more classic instant ramen style.

Think about its overall taste (savory, sweet, sour), richness, and authenticity to the advertised flavor.
Think about their texture, consistency, and how well they held up in the broth.
