Noodle Journey Episode 73: Paldo Kokomen

Notes since filming:

Definitely a contender for the best chicken noodle soup out there. If Shin Gold isn’t to your liking and you want a spicy chicken broth, give this one a try!

I mentioned it in the video but it bears repeating: the version I reviewed stated that the chicken flavoring was artificial, however it appears that some varieties of this do contain actual chicken broth (through a convoluted process in which chicken is imported into South Korea from the USA, manufactured into its final form in South Korea, then exported back out again). Check the ingredients label for yourself in person if you do not want to consume actual chicken broth.

Original video description:

Another review of a pretty interesting flavor from Paldo. Kokomen is a chicken noodle soup with a twist!
