Trader Joe's Instant Ramen Cups Review - Noodle Journey Episode 65

Trader Joe’s Instant Ramen Cups Review – Noodle Journey Episode 65

I'm checking out a trio of Trader Joe's Instant Ramen Cups: Miso, Spicy Miso, and Chicken. They sell for $1.69 each at the time of this review and come in light, single-serving cups. These do not exactly appear to be filling, but are priced well below what these usually cost under their original branding. Which brings me to the twist: upon opening the Miso cup, I discovered that these are actually rebranded products from Mike’s Mighty Good Ramen. The oil packet writing gave it away immediately, and sure enough, they’re confirmed to be co-manufactured. If you’re familiar with my past reviews, you know I’ve had my share of issues with Mike’s. That said, the Trader Joe’s versions are cheaper, so if for some reason you like Mike’s ramen, this is the place to buy it.

Trader Joe's Squiggly Knife Cut Style Noodles with Soy and Sesame Sauce Review - Noodle Journey Episode 64

Trader Joe’s Squiggly Knife Cut Style Noodles with Soy and Sesame Sauce Review – Noodle Journey Episode 64

I’m reviewing a newish entry in the world of Taiwanese-style noodles sold in the US: Trader Joe's Squiggly Knife Cut Style Noodles with Soy and Sesame Sauce. Despite the silly name (“squiggly”? really?), this is a Taiwanese-style noodle kit that feels like a direct response to Momofuku’s popular product line. Trader Joe’s doesn’t make these in-house, but rather they rebrand from other manufacturers, so it honestly wouldn’t surprise me if these were made by A-Sha, the same company behind Momofuku’s noodles. At $4.99 for a 4-pack (at the time of this review), it’s a pretty reasonable entry point if you’re curious about this type of noodle.
