Found these at Target – got the other two varieties as well to review. This is weird; I dunno – will they be good? Spicy? Sounds interesting at the least – let’s try ’em.

#5446: Good Seoul Topokki Carbonara – South Korea
I review this in the waning days of summer. When I was young, I remember it was about now when back to school sales started – they start almost before school lets out for summer, making the gauge worthless at this point. But the long afternoon shadows herald the change coming soon. It’s August 5th, 2025. Let’s cook.
#5443: Bias Apgu Red Chili Instant Noodles – United States
Say! Here’s a new one – I was contacted by Bias about a new non-fried, Vegan friendly, and low-cal ramyun that’s supposed to be really tasty. Time to find out!
#5438: Good Seoul Rapokki Original – South Korea
Rapokki is a combo of rice cake and noodle and usually has a sweet and spicy sauce – this sounds like it’ll be a good one! Let’s have at it!
#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.
#5434: Samyang Tangle Garlic Oil Pasta – United States
This one came by way of James from Lakeside, California – thanks again! I must admit that this range seems to be pretty good stuff. Maybe this is a kind of aglio olio thing? Let’s find out.
#5433: Maggi Spicy Garlic 2 Minute Noodles – India
Another from James from Lakeside, California – thanks! This is a four pack and one in pretty good condition. I have a feeling this is gonna be spicy! Let’s find out.
#5428: Good Seoul Rapokki Carbonara – South Korea
Time to go for another rapokki. It’s both tteokbokki and ramyun – together – with sauce. Truly a wonderful texture thing to be sure. Let’s dig in!
#5425: Good Seoul Topokki Cheese – South Korea
Previously, I tried the cheese rapokki, but here we have just the tteokbokki. I know, it isn’t ramen – however, it’s definitely something you’d find on the ramen aisle. Let’s cook it up!
#5422: Simply Asia Soy Ginger Noodle Bowl – United States
I dedicate this one to my late friend Jamie. These were the kinds of noodle things we generally poked fun at a lot. I must say though that the absence of the words inspired, authentic, and fusion seem to be missing where something like this may even have all three. Those are generally the opposite of what is found. Let’s give this one, found at Grocery Outlet Bargain Market.
#5421: Ching’s Secret Machurian Instant Noodles – India
Another from James of Lakeside, California – thanks again! Manchurian tyle in India in a combo of Indian and Chinese, usually fried veg and meat and noodles from what I gather. Sounds interesting – let’s cook!
#5419: Good Seoul Topokki Chili Lime – South Korea
Say! I love tteokbokki but I’ve NEVER heard of a variety in this flavor! I’m really quite curious… One way to find out – let’s give it a try!
#5417: Ramen-Aid Electrolyte Soup Supplement + Immune Support – United States
Okay I’m really fascinated by this. Ramen-Aid is a ramen supplement, containing vitamins and minerals. There’s this version and an energy version – with caffeine! I’m thinking the best way to review this will be to add it to a standard instant and see if it modifies the flavor. I don’t think it will.
#5416: Little Cook Dried Instant Cup Noodle Sriracha Sauce Flavor – Thailand
This one came by way of James from Lakeside, California – thanks again! So this is a brand I’ve not reviewed anything from in a long time so I’m pretty excited about it. Little Cook is in Thailand as well as Taiwan. As a matter of fact, I met people from Little Cook in Taiwan back in 2017! They make some great stuff and I’m very curious about this one. Let us begin!
#5414: Good Seoul Rapokki Cheese – South Korea
So first, I did a pack like this of original topokki. Next, a carbonara cup. This is rapokki – a combo of noodle and rice cake. It’s usually a really great melding of textures. This should be awesome – let’s give it a try.
#5413: Maggi Spicy BBQ Instant Noodles With Seasoning – India
Just opened a big box from James of Lakeside, California and this was in there – thanks, man! This is an interesting one – unsure what BBQ is like in India – maybe smoky? This is a four pack – pretty crunched up – they usually are. Let’s cook it up and give it a try!
#5411: Good Seoul Carbonara Topokki – South Korea
Now this one sounds good. In the last post, I complained about all the creamy and spicy varieties out there, but this is tteokbokki and it’s hard for me to get cranky about tteokbokki. Let’s hit the start button on the microwave!
#5410: Nongshim Shin Ramyun Toomba Stir Fry (Soup) – United States
Note – I prepared this incorrectly, however in an upcoming review it is prepared correctly.
#5408: Good Seoul Topokki Original – South Korea
This is the first of a lot of tteokbokki varieties I’ll be reviewing from Good Seoul. This product is made in South Korea and at this point distributed in the GCC and soon Europe. That’s great – everyone need tteokbokki in their life I swear! This came out of a big box of varieties they sent from Dubai! Let’s give it a try!
#5406: Sapporo Ichiban Chow Mein – United States
Update 12/26/2025 – Now that Christmas is over, back to the standard daily posts. This was done July 7th, 2025, so that should tell you how far ahead I’ve been. I’m going to attempt to let things catch up a wee bit and work on top ten lists for you in the interim, so you should be seeing one sometime soon – I’ll come out with a post regarding them as usual before the day they post. Some regular annual lists haven’t come out as firstly, I’ve not been able to source enough varieties for a logical update and secondly, the top tens are a lot of work and honestly not always that much fun to work on – a lot of video editing and keeping from reviewing. So, since I’m nearly six months ahead, I’ll be working on them in a more mellow way instead of trying to last minute slam them out. Hope all that enjoy holidays enjoyed the previous and upcoming ones and those that don’t avoided the ridiculousness they can entail. For now, that is all. I should note my ten year old son Miles is really amped about trying Buldak. He is a very picky eater though; he won’t eat anything hot temperature wise and he doesn’t like certain textures. I can let it cool down, but I’m curious to see if he is up to the texture of it. So we shall see. I might release that for NYE. Anyways, we continue and thank you so much for your continued support of what I do!
#5404: Cheetos Mac’n Cheese Cheesy Ranch Flavor – United States
Well, happy Halloween for this one. Does that make sense? The episode of Instant Noodle Recipe Time debuted on October 31, 2025. So, there you go. I think that means this post came out in, what… Christmas 2025? Pretty crazy as I type this in early July 2025… Let’s see – this is review 5404 and I posted 5244 today – 160 days from today which is July 8th will be… I was close – December 15th. The video for Instant Noodle Recipe Time comes out around 45 days before the post does… Yeah, I guess it’s kind of a nightmare… Either way, wow you’re close to Christmas. Here’s an early gift. Mac’n Cheese (not macaroni but rotini) and its ranch flavor which is highly disturbing. Let’s cook.
#5403: GS25 Jumbo Omori Kimchi Stew Ramyun – South Korea
We’re back at it with another massive Korean mukbang fest. I found this at a store called GMart in Lynnwood, Washington for $20. By the way, no, I’m not eating this whole thing, that’s for sure – it requires 2,2L of boiling water. That’s insane. I don’t advise sucking down this whole thing – 3440kCal, 14,960mg of sodium. I watched a guy eat the whole thing on YouTube along with a Korean beer and some crunchy squid. If you get one, share it with friends is my advice. Regardless, this should be fun – I mean, it’s a lot of noodles.
#5402: Nongshim Udon Premium – United States
Found this at HMart during my big early summer noodle drought of 2025… I don’t see a lot of boxed varieties, let along ones for the US. This used to be in a bowl – although maybe it still is. Anyways, sounds like a good one to try out – let’s give it a whirl!
Advent Calendar Day 21: #5590: Nissin Soba Chili Flavor – Germany
Well, I overslept… So, it’s time to get stuff done. We were up really late – the plan was to watch Stand By Me, but couldn’t find it so we ended up watching the new version of Running Man – at least part of it. Surprisingly it wasn’t bad. Anyways, enough of our exceedingly late night viewing antics – let’s try this pack version of their Chili flavor – the cup version was really great so we shall see.
#5401: Trailtopia Adventure Food Curry Ramen Noodles – United States
Big thanks to The Fat Hipster for sending this along. This is an instant noodle for hikers and campers. So if you’re neither, think of carrying tons of stuff for a multi day outdoor trip. You will need food. Do you want to carry something heavy or light? When you’re done, do you want big trash to lug around? Well, this is a solution. These packs aren’t huge, they’re light, and unlike a foam bowl, this is also the cooking vessel and folds up for disposal away from the trail. The expiration date said 2029 as well, so if the universe hasn’t blown up yet, you’ll have noodles, and if it has blown up, it’ll be right there for you in your secret noodle bunker! Plus, it’s curry. Sold! Let’s give it a shot.
Advent Calendar Day 20: #5589: Nissin Soba Classic Flavor – Germany
Well we’re almost there. It’s been a lot of fun thus far. It’s Saturday – kids are now on winter break, aka Xmas break. It’s cold out. I’m hoping tomorrow I’ll be trying out a new camera if the battery charger shows up. Guess we’d better start getting on wrapping gifts – definitely not my strong suit. However, my wife Kit is really good at it – she’s got it down cold and makes them look professional. Well, let’s get to cooking – I really liked the pack version of this so now it’s the cup.
#5400: Samyang Tangle Creamy Mushroom Pasta – United States
Found this at HMart during the great noodle drought around here… This is a newer logo for their Tangle range… I liked the old white and orange logo a lot… Well, let’s try what comes in the bowl.
Advent Calendar Day 18: #5588: Nissin Soba Chili Flavor – Germany
Wow, that stripe at the top of these posts is getting longer and longer to do every day! I have to edit it in every single post! I’m sure there’s some kind of way to automate it, but I am just doing copy paste on each one at the end of the day – easier. Anyways, this is a spicy yakisoba we have here – let’s give it a try!
#5398: MAMA Thai Connext Instant Tom Kha Noodles – Thailand
This one was kindly sent by Mark K. – thanks! I’d never seen this before and thought wow that’s rad – so he sent some! Coconut soup with herbs… Sounds really nice – let’s cook!
Advent Calendar Day 16: Nissin Cup Noodles Duck Sweet Onion Soup – Germany
Had a feeling this one would make an appearance sooner or later! We slept in a skosh so glad it’s one I’ve already tried – makes things a lot quicker on readying the post. Let’s cook it up!
#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.
Advent Calendar Day 15: Nissin Demae Ramen Spicy – Germany
I started doing this big advent calendar 2 weeks ago today – pretty crazy! It’s going very well thus far it seems! Thought I’d mention – if you like following, that’s great – I have my posts going out on quite a few platforms, but a couple have barely anyone following. I’m on Substack and Bluesky – it seems people started noticing that and then poof. So, I thought I’d remind folks that if they like those, I’m there. Tumblr too for what it’s worth. Now, on with the review!
Advent Calendar Day 14: #5586: Nissin Soba Pad Thai Flavor – Germany
Had a great time for my daughter’s birthday party yesterday, did a bunch of stuff afterwards, then my wife and I stayed up watching YouTube until almost 4am. It’s noon now so I’m kinda behind my usual workflow, but it’s Sunday so no big deal. Anyways, let’s cook this up – I’m very curious how this will be! Let’s cook.
Advent Calendar Day 13: #5585: Nissin Soba Teriyaki Flavor – Germany
Well it’s Saturday and time to start the second half of the advent calendar. Today’s my daughter Mimi’s birthday party so I’ll have to get going here. This is the teriyaki Soba pack version as opposed to the cup I did prior. Let’s cook it up!
#5393: Baoji Gan Mian Pi Xiangwei Shizu Baobao Cold Noodle – China
This one was hiding in my meager hamper stash – found it at S*Mart in Bellevue, Washington. First off, this is a cold noodle – good for during hot weather – which we’re getting toward as the day I’m reviewing this is the last day of spring. You can steam these or microwave them – and the latter sounds like the easier option. I am making this on the last day of school for the kids. Egad. Let’s get started.
Advent Calendar Day 11: #5584: Nissin Demae Ramen Miso – Germany
This one was included in the advent calenda box from last year – and it would have been good I figure. Alas, I lost the sachet from this one. I hunted through the trash but never found it. Fortunately, I get another chance at it! Do I give it a new numbe? Why not! Let’s cook it up!
Advent Calendar Day 10: #5583: Nissin Soba Peking Duck Flavour – Germany
Time for some quacking with Peking Duck. I really think duck ought to become the nation protein – maybe just plain international protein of choice. Duck is really great so if you’ve not tried it, you’re missing out. Let’s cook this one up!
Advent Calendar Day 9: Nissin Demae Ramen Sesame – Germany
Started a little late this morning but no harm – it’s one I did recently enough… Curious if today will bring more torrential downpour and gusty winds. Guess we shall see.
Advent Calendar Day 8: #5582: Nissin Soba Teriyaki Flavor – Germany
I started doing these last Monday and now it’s a new week with day number eight. So far so good – I think it’ll get a little tricky once we get towards my daughter’s birthday but the train will go throughout I tell ya! Got some extreme weather for this area coming up this week. Time to cook!
#5388: Ajinomoto Oyakata Yakisoba Classic Soy Sauce – United States
Well, an interesting day. Last night my daughter got a hit and scored a run in her very last softball game of the season. Also, it turns out my son likes Froot Loops. It’s really a turning point for my family. Let’s give this one – made in Poland for the US market – a try!
