So after sampling so many varieties of instant noodles over the years, of course there have been some that I didn’t like. There also were some that are so memorable for how awful they were. After people asked what my least favorites were a few times, I thought I should just make a list of them. I should point out that these are on the list because I couldn’t stand them. I’m pretty sure they are all still in production, and the only reason they would be is that people somewhere find them enjoyable. So who knows – you might have a completely different opinion on these than me, but I found them to be absolutely the worst of the worst. With that, here’s The Bottom Ten Instant Noodles Of All Time, 2013 Edition.

#860: Baijia Artificial Pickled Cabbage Fish Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Thread
In the past reviews of Baijia products, I haven’t been really stoked. I have been told by those keen on Sichuan cuisine that this is good stuff, but I think I’m not one of those who are keen on Sichuan cuisine. Regardless, I shall try this with an open mind. Let’s have a go at this one.
#634: Baijia Sichuan Hot Pot Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Thread
This one was sent by Michelle L. of New York! Unfortunately, for this one I have exceedingly low expectations. Every Baijia product I’ve tried has been just plain gross in my opinion.
#584: Baijia Single Noble Black Bone Chicken Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Noodles
#580 Baijia Original Hot & Sour Flavor Casserole Stewed Rice Noodle
Baijia with rice noodles eh? Sounds different – hope it’s better than all the others I’ve tried!
#579: Baijia Sichuan Pickled Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Thread
Baijia has been a brand I loathe thus far. Let’s see what we have in this one.
Two packets – liquid base on left and powdered base on right.
Noodles & Correspondance From Afar
Ramen Rater reader Greg B. from Orlando, FL offered to send me some of his favorite noodles that he hadn’t seen me review before. I was really stoked to see this box!
#455: Baijia Single Noble Pickled Radish And Duck Flavor Instant Sweet Potato Noodle ( Cup )
Baijia. Probably the single brand with the lowest consecutive ratings I’ve given. But lo and behold, I continue reviewing them – I believe that at some point there will be something awesome from them! Perhaps this pickled radish and duck flavored sweet potato noodle cup will be the holy grail? We shall see…
#133: Baijia Hot & Sour Flavor Instant Rice Noodle
Okay so last time I have something by this brand I really didn’t like it at all. But maybe this stuff will be better. Hear the decree of the Ramen Rater! I fear no noodle! I use full flavor sachet! I am invincible!
#69: Baijia Instant Sweet Potato Noodle Spicy Fei-Chang Flavor
Since these noodles are Chinese, I thought I’d include our pugs in on cooking them. They were extremely helpful with the preparation.
