Noodle Journey Episode 3A: Mike’s Mighty Good Ramen Chicken Cup

Notes since filming: Still one of the blandest things I’ve ever eaten. Every time someone recommends Mike’s Mighty Good Ramen on Reddit, I have to swallow the urge to correct them with profanity.

I also regret labeling this episode as “3A” because I’ve never used that type of relational episode numbering since this was published.

We’re taking a super quick look at Mike’s Mighty Good Ramen Chicken Cup! Since I had to open this cup for a comparison in the previous Mike’s Mighty Good Ramen review, I figured I’d record a short review to see how different the cup product is from the pillow pack.

Noodle Journey Episode 3: Mike’s Mighty Good Fried Garlic Chicken Ramen

Notes since filming: I’ve eaten this once since filming this review (I was desperate), and I regretted it. I’ve had so much better since this review that I feel like the overall 4 may have been too generous.

Noodle Journey Episode 2: Nongshim Shin Black Ramyun

Notes since filming: Still one of my absolute favorites. I miss the days when you could accidentally buy the Korean version from Amazon for the same prices as the one Nongshim manufactures in California, but I’m very happy buying the American version for my meals.

After a positive review of Nongshim Shin, it’s time to look at the more premium Nongshim Shin Black. Learn all about the regional differences and if this is worth the extra cost!

Noodle Journey Episode 1: Nongshim Shin Ramyun

Notes since filming: My first review! I still love this flavor, and you can’t beat how easy it is to find in supermarkets nowadays. Sadly, that 99-cent price point is long gone in most stores. I confess that I don’t buy this as regularly as I used to (my main Korean noodle purchases for myself are mostly Shin Black, Shin Green, and Samyang Vegetasty as I write this), but I will forever be grateful to Nongshim for showing me what a quality instant noodle product can be. This one is a great way to get your spice tolerance up to a medium-level, and Shin takes really well to almost any veggies or protein you want to throw into it.

Noodle Journey: Introduction

Notes since filming: Sadly, the massive variety pack that helped kickstart this channel can no longer be purchased. The website I bought it from, Cokoyam.com, shut down not long after I started the channel. They still have an Amazon storefront, but it’s a pale shadow of what it used to be.

A brief introduction for new visitors to this channel. I talk about how I got here and how I will conduct my reviews.
