Here's a Japanese variety from Maruchan that I stumbled upon online totally by accident several months back: Maruchan QTTA Green Smoky Mayonnaise Ramen. Direct from the translation of Maruchan's press release about this flavor, it is a "creamy soup based on the delicious flavor of chicken, with a moderate amount of smoked flavor and green

Review: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Beef Flavor
This Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Beef Flavor is the final one of Nissin's currently-available Cup Noodles Protein products, and I haven't been overly impressed with the line thus far. Although the added bone broth protein does its job in making you feel fuller, the flavor has been a little lacking all-told. Maybe
Review: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Hot & Spicy Chicken Flavor
Time for the second of three entries in this new Cup Noodles offshoot product line, with this Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Hot & Spicy Chicken Flavor. Check out the Rich & Savory Chicken Flavor review if you'd like to see how the first one went. This one is the only spicy entry in the line,
Review: Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Chicken Flavor
This Nissin Cup Noodles Protein Rich & Savory Chicken Flavor the first review (of three) of a small new product line from Nissin that just started popping up in July 2025. These are protein-enhanced Cup Noodles flavors, containing 16g of protein per serving, which is a 10g increase over the standard 6g included in the
Review: Nissin U.F.O. Super Hot Chilli Flavor
A while back I had my first taste of Nissin's U.F.O. noodles in the form of the Hong Kong export version, which I was lucky enough to find at a local Asian convenience store. The other variety I picked up from that store around the same time is this Nissin U.F.O. Super Hot Chilli Flavor,
Review: Myojo Charumera Cup Barikata Tonkotsu Ramen
This Myojo Charumera Cup Barikata Tonkotsu Ramen is a variety that came out of last year's final ZenPop Ramen subscription box, and it's something I've been keen to try for a while. The bagged version of this product used to pop up over on Yami every once in a while and I always missed grabbing
Review: Myojo Ippei-Chan Yakisoba with Garlic Mayonnaise
I've been wanting to try this variety ever since I first reviewed Myojo Ippei-Chan Yakisoba with Mustard Mayonnaise a while back. That one still holds firm as my favorite yakisoba product to date, and Myojo is a pretty solid brand as long as we ignore their occasional major atrocity. However, I am a garlic fanatic,
Review: Nissin Cup Noodle BIG Hot and Sour Soup
You may have noticed the last handful of reviews were photographed in a kind of black void. That's because I'm using a photography box to document some of my reviews when I'm not home. And not being home means that the easiest thing to review is Cup Noodles (and other noodles that come in a
Review: TableMark Touhoku no Aji Yonezawa Ramen
This TableMark Touhoku no Aji Yonezawa Ramen bowl is another Japanese variety I got out of the very final ZenPop ramen subscription box. This is a brand from Japan that I've never tried before, and it doesn't look like many of their products make it to the USA compared to other brands like Nissin, Maruchan,
Review: Nissin Cup Noodles Artificial Beef Flavor (Hong Kong)
It's been a while since I took a look at one of these Nissin Cup Noodles flavors from Hong Kong, but back when I reviewed the Black Pepper Crab flavor, it ended up being one of my favorites ever. I'm very curious to see how this one goes. If you want to know how this
