Hey everyone, it's time to get into the very first site-exclusive Noodle Journey review, with Maruchan Yakisoba Cheddar Cheese Flavor! If you're confused about why this is a bunch of text with no video, check out the recent blog post explaining my decision to split up my reviews between the channel and this site. Anyway...

Noodle Journey Episode 174: Maruchan/Funyuns Hot & Spicy Chicken Ramen
Noodle Journey is an episodic review series in which we learn all about instant noodle brands and products and then do a deep dive into the noodle quality, spice level, and overall flavor. All reviews are as thorough as possible. The noodles are cooked according to the manufacturer's instructions using only the contents of the product package unless otherwise indicated. This ensures that the review is as unbiased as possible and evaluates whether or not I think a product is worth a purchase either as a standalone meal or as a base that you could spruce up. Did you know that there's a variety of Funyuns that tastes like ramen? In this review, I'll do a deep dive into both the Maruchan Instant Lunch flavor that inspired the Funyuns and let you know if these products taste at all similar. Check it out!

Top 10 Instant Noodles (2024) | Noodle Journey
I recently hit the milestone of 1,000 subscribers, and to celebrate, I’m finally compiling the first-ever Noodle Journey Top 10 Instant Noodles list. Over the course of this channel, I’ve reviewed a massive variety of noodles, but these ten are the absolute best-in-class for their categories, in my humble opinion. These are the varieties that blew me away when I tried them and that I keep stocked regularly in my pantry for when I’m not filming reviews. This list is in no particular order. These are simply the major varieties that are easily obtainable and represent the pinnacle of my own instant noodle universe in 2024.
Maruchan Akai Kitsune Udon Noodle Soup Review | Noodle Journey Episode 118
I’m reviewing Maruchan’s Akai Kitsune Udon Noodle Soup, a companion to the Midori no Tanuki soba I just covered. “Akai Kitsune” translates to “red fox,” which in this context refers to a bowl of udon topped with fried tofu (called "abura-age"), not anything to do with fox meat. I like the Tanuki soba a lot, so I’m going in hoping this udon version lands just as well.
Maruchan Midori no Tanuki Soba Noodle Soup Review | Noodle Journey Episode 117
Today, I’m reviewing Maruchan Midori no Tanuki Soba Noodle Soup, and I’m genuinely excited that I finally spotted a Japanese-market Maruchan product at my local H Mart. Maruchan is underrepresented on my channel because most of the interesting items are Japan-only, so finding this with an English ingredient list feels like a small win.
