This Yamadai Sugomen Green Onion Miso Ramen is the last review in the series of products picked up for me in Guam, and I saved it until the end because it's the largest and, frankly, most exciting one to me that my coworker brought back. This is a gigantic noodle bowl from Yamadai, one of

Review: Nissin Cup Noodle Spicy
I've found that a lot of Japanese products that promise spice don't always deliver on the spice, even though they taste good. Hopefully this Nissin Cup Noodle Spicy variety brings the heat and the flavor in equal amounts. This is the second-to-last item brought back for me from Guam at Don Don Donki, so we're
Review: Yamadai New Touch Original Kimchi Ramen
This Yamadai New Touch Original Kimchi Ramen is the fifth product from my Guam review pile, and is certainly one of the more interesting ones. This is, I think, a first for me: a Japanese manufacturer making a Korean kimchi stew instant noodle. And not just any Japanese manufacturer... Yamadai is one of the premier
Review: Nissin Jonetz Shrimp and Salt Flavour Ramen Bowl
This Nissin Jonetz Shrimp and Salt Flavour Ramen Bowl is the fourth item from Guam in my review pile, and like the Acecook product that preceded it, it is another Don Don Donki store-exclusive product under the Jonetz brand (check out the previous review for a little info on the Jonetz branding). Now on its
Review: Acecook Jonetz Rich Tonkotsu Flavor Noodles
Here's another product found in Guam that I never knew existed: Acecook Jonetz Rich Tonkotsu Flavor Noodles. A little explanation here is probably warranted. In Japan, there's a chain of convenience stores called Don Quijote, affectionately called "Donki" for short. There are other Donki locations in other countries, and those international locations are under the
Review: Nissin Cup Noodles Tom Yum Kung
Here's another flavor I got from my coworker on his trip to Guam: Nissin Cup Noodles Tom Yum Kung. Prior to this write-up, I thought I vaguely remembered seeing this one advertised as a limited-time offering from Nisisn being sold in Japan several years back, but I also see other mentions of it going back
Review: Interfresh Instant Rice Noodle Pho Tomyum Flavor
One of my coworkers recently returned from a trip to Guam and brought me quite an assortment of noodles cups & bowls that I'm going to be reviewing over the next little while, starting with this Interfresh Instant Rice Noodle Pho Tomyum Flavor. I'm starting with this particular flavor because it's the most interesting to
Review: Nissin Cup Noodle Tropical Seafood
Given that we're coming out of a massive summer heatwave, I thought maybe it was time to review this Nissin Cup Noodle Tropical Seafood flavor. This is a limited-edition Japan-only variety from Nissin that pops back into existence every once in a while, and this particular instance of it is the "BIG" cup, meaning it's
Review: Nongshim Soon Tofu Noodles
Like a lot of my recent noodle purchases, I found this bowl of Nongshim Soon Tofu Noodles at my local Grocery Outlet and grabbed it right away. I've tried Nongshim Soon before and found it to be a very good vegan option, delivering some light spice and solid vegetable-forward umami flavor, kind of like a
Review: Roland Beef Flavor Noodles Cup
I spotted this Roland Beef Flavor Noodles Cup in my local Grocery Outlet a couple months ago and decided to pick one up. I'd never heard of Roland Foods before and I'd never seen this in my life, but let's check it out and see if it's worth your while! So apparently Roland Foods is
