I’ve been having fun re-reviewing these MAMA packs lately – it’s been a while that’s for sure. Here’s another one – pork flavor. It probably won’t be like a Tom Yum kind of thing, so I’m curious how it’s going to taste.

#937: MAMA Shrimp Flavour (TOM YUM) Oriental Style Instant Noodles
NOTE – This was originally catalogued as a ‘Re-Review’ but actually hadn’t reviewed it before. Therefore, I am correcting this and making it the next successive review, which is #937.
Re-Review: MAMA Shrimp Creamy Tom Yum Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Went to 99 Ranch Market yesterday and picked these up. I reviewed them way back – #136 – over two years ago. I gave them 2.0 out of 5.0 stars. Many of your have commented on how much you enjoy it and so I think I’ll give it another chance. I’ve found varieties from back then are more to my liking now.
#665: MAMA Instant Rice Vermicelli Moo Nam Tok Flavour
This one came from Greg B. of Marathon, Florida – thanks, Greg! What the heck is Moo Nam Tok supposed to taste like? From Wikipedia:
How I Eat My Ramen
Hello fellow “Rameners” My name is Greg, and I am a Ramenholic. As a new contributor to RamenRater.com I thought it would be appropriate to use my first post to share how I prepare Ramen noodles.
#590: MAMA Instant Chand Clear Soup Bowl
Needed something fast to eat before we went to do our Black Friday errands. No, we didn’t get up at 4am or anything; we need to get an oil change and woke up at noon. So here’s some instant MAMA.
#464: MAMA Vegetable Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Been a really really long time since I reviewed some MAMA noodles! That’s because I’ve reviewed so many of them in the past I have a really hard time finding new ones to eat! These are some I got at OC Grocery in Anaheim, California on our vacation. They didn’t have an enormous selection of noodles, however I didn’t have most of them and left with a couple bagfuls – very nice little place – smelled great and nice people! Anyways, on with the review!
#389: MAMA Vegetarian Tom Yum
So here’s one that came down from Canada but I wager it’s available at most good sized Asian groceries around here.
#304: MAMA Phở Bò Rice Noodles With Artificial Beef Flavor Vietnamese Style
Phở bò? Here we go! I like the picture on the lid – looks very inviting and fresh and tasty. We shall see how it tastes! Join me won’t you? WON’T YOU?
#281: MAMA Oriental Kitchen Instant Cup Noodles Hot & Spicy Flavour
So here’s another of MAMA’s Oriental Kitchen line. I have a feeling this is going to live up to its name.
#275: MAMA Cup Shrimp Tom Yum Instant Noodles
So this is an interesting packaging first off. The lid is made from a metal foil and underneath that is all plastic. Here goes some tom yum shrimp flavor!
#267: MAMA Cup Pork Flavour
A little taller than most of the cup noodles I’ve seen, here we have MAMA Pork Flavour…
#255: MAMA Oriental Kitchen Spicy Seafood Cup
So here’s something new – MAMA’s Oriental Kitchen… Let’s try…
#246: MAMA Artificial Pork Flavour Jumbo Pack Oriental Style Instant Noodles
So thought I’d give it a whirl. This is one of the few I haven’t tried left at 99 Ranch Market! I see a problem coming on and I don’t like it!
#224: MAMA Instant Bowl Noodles Artificial Pork Flavour Base
Happy bowl of artificial pork flavor noodles! Awesome!
Oil and powder and chili powder and veggies…
#179: MAMA Kimchi Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Some Kimchi flavor from Thailand! Should be interesting. I’m going to doctor it up today with quite a few ingredients. One thing kind of interesting is that there is currently a cabbage shortage in Korea, where Kimchi is so widely consumed. Here is an article about it – thanks for the info Kit!
#178: MAMA Clear Soup Oriental Style Instant Noodle
So some more of MAMA’s stuff. Very thin noodles – VERY thin!
Chili powder, powder and seasoned oil.
#172: MAMA Oriental Style Instant Flat Noodles (Tom Yam)
So I asked Kit to pick out two packs of noodles for me to try next. Here’s the first one. I’m curious whether it’ll be any good; the MAMA brand has reviews on here from 1 to 4 stars so we’ll just have to see. By the way, on the back in two places it says tom yum instead of tom yam like it does on the front. I’m going to go with tom yum being correct and the yam being a typo.
#159: MAMA Hot & Spicy Flavor Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Some hot stuff from MAMA here today. We’ll see if it’s really hot and spicy…
#158: MAMA JokCup Artificial Pork Flavour Instant Porridge Soup
Pork porridge. Let me refine that – ARTIFICIAL pork porridge. Those three words have been kind of interesting to say while this little cup has been kicking it around here. But no more. Artificial pork porridge is lunch.
#146: MAMA Pho Bo Oriental Style Instant Chand Noodles Beef Flavor
So I like Pho noodles I’ve gotten around here from the various little restaurants. Usually I get some variety of beef Pho. Let’s see how this stacks up to the real thing…
#143: Mamy Chand Clear Soup Oriental Style Instant Noodles
So what can I say – cheap noodles are fun too. These are from Thailand and called Mamy but they’re MAMA brand…
#140: MAMA Mi Goreng Oriental Style Instant Noodles
So one of my favorite all time noodles is Indomie Mi Goreng Satay. I was very pleased to see that there was a new Mi Goreng out there – at least new to me.
#136: MAMA Shrimp Creamy Tom Yum Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Some noodles from Thailand today. I’ve reviewed some noodles that are by MAMA and Tom Yum but not the creamy.
#128: MAMA Oriental Style Instant Noodles Artificial PA-LO Duck Flavour
Okay. Last time I had duck noodles was a long long time ago and it was Myojo’s hat in the ring. Now here’s MAMA’s duck flavor.
#126: MAMA Instant Rice Vermicelli Tom Yam Koong Flavour
So this is an interesting one. The package weighs practically nothing and the noodle blocks is extremely thin. Weirdness….
#537: MAMA Instant Noodle Pad Kee Mao Flavour (Drunken Noodles)
MAMA Pad Kee Mao… The pack is shiny and shows a seriously elaborate dish… Not really much of anything in English on this one.
#534: MAMA Pho Ga Oriental Style Instant Chand Noodles Chicken Flavour
So here’s something new – pho. Chicken pho. I think this probably won’t live up to its name but we’ll see.
#116: MAMA Nam Vang Instant Chand Clear Soup
Nam Vang? Phnom Penh style? Looks interesting to be sure. A lot of words on this bag!
Rice noodles – like the Pad Thai in the similar packaging…
#109: MAMA Instant Pad Thai Noodles
So some Pad Thai by MAMA. This should be interesting – I’ve had Pad Thai before at a restaurant and its not too bad so we’ll see how it stands up here.
#94: MAMA Artificial Chicken Flavour Oriental Style Instant Noodles
Okay so first off, here we go with the MAMA noodles. I really didn’t expect to like these but what can I say – not too bad. Mi Ga it says on the top left – Ga means chicken in Vietnamese – I know that much. Interesting as this is a Thai product.
#35: MAMA Chand Clear Soup Oriental Style Instant Noodles
MAMA: Oriental Style Instant (Chand Clear Soup) Stars: ***
Notes: This stuff ain’t too bad. Definitely rice noodles. The broth was extremely good – a little spicy, but clear as it purports. Tasted like a celery soup. Did just fine with it even
though I have a severe unrelated gut-ache.
