The aroma of the Thai Delight Pad Thai Noodles hits you immediately with peanuts and canned corn. Specifically, the distinct smell of canned baby corn, which was nostalgic to me.

Produced in Thailand.

Just a heads-up, you’ll need to give this one a really good mix and double heads-up, the noodles are a little fragile and tend to break easily so be careful and find that balance when you stir.

The sourness in the dish was quite strong, and the lime flavor leaned towards the artificial side. I thought a touch of sweetness could have harmonized the flavors more. The preserved taste of the canned corn was the most prominent element, with a similar note coming from the canned mushrooms. And while the peanut scent is there, the taste of actual peanuts is subtle.

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.
