Today’s review is kind of an update to the review all the way back in episode 90 where I reviewed the version of Samyang Buldak Rosé sold in South Korea. It’s no longer necessary to jump through hoops to import Buldak Rosé, but is it the same recipe? Today I’m reviewing this pack of Samyang Buldak Rosé, the version specifically exported to the US from South Korea.
Nissin is back with more limited edition gimmick noodles again, which means I have to review them again so that I don’t miss out. Today’s review is Nissin Cup Noodles BBQ flavors: Texas BBQ and Kansas City BBQ. I really have a love-hate relationship with Nissin’s gimmick Cup Noodles at this point. I love when they try new, thinking-out-of-the-box noodle recipes, but I hate that most of them have been, let’s say, subpar. And quite frankly, I don’t expect soft Cup Noodles covered in Nissin’s interpretation of barbecue sauce to be very good, but I just have to know. Another thing I hate is that when these limited-time Cup Noodles come out, my review schedule has to get adjusted, and I’ve got to review these while they’re still on store shelves. I had a completely different product review planned for this episode, so thank you for screwing up my plans, Nissin.
Today's review is Samyang Buldak Jjajang Spicy Ramen, but not the one I reviewed a long time ago. There’s no official English name for this product. The internet has been calling it "fried jjajang", but I’m just going to call it what it actually is for this review: a new recipe of Buldak Jjajang made for the Chinese market.
Today’s review is going to be a quick little examination of a hot, pun intended, new flavor from Maruchan and Frito-Lay. This is a new collaboration between them: Maruchan Instant Lunch Flamin’ Hot Chicken Ramen.
Today’s review is not technically an instant noodle, but it is certainly part of the instant noodle universe. These are brand new from Samyang: Buldak Mac n' Cheese Sweet Corn Flavor and Carbonara Flavor.
Today’s mega review is one that you viewers voted for and I’m excited to try out. This is a somewhat recent product line from Nissin: Top Ramen HotPot Fusions. These three products are made by Nissin for sale in the US, and they came out sometime last year, maybe around autumn. This is the entirety of the product line as it currently stands. We’ve got Korean Spicy Beef flavor, Japanese Garlic Tonkotsu Pork flavor, and Thai Coconut Curry Chicken flavor.
Today's entry in my big pile of Buldak noodles is a newer, limited-time bowl product with one of the weirdest names that I've ever seen: Samyang Buldak Hotter Than My Ex. Maybe this has caught your attention if you've seen it online; there seems to be a lot of confusion as to what this product is supposed to be, so I figured, why not? Let's do a review of it.
These are brand new from Nongshim and I'm willing to bet a lot of you who clicked on this review have been waiting for these for months. They're finally here, but there is a major issue you should know about so make sure you read through the whole intro (or watch the video linked above) and I'll talk about it. Welcome to the mega review of Nongshim's KPop Demon Hunters Shin Ramyun Cups.
Working my way through my big backlog of Buldak (the bi-weekly Buldak big backlog binge, if you will) today's review is one of the newer flavors that I teased a while back. This is Samyang Buldak Swicy Sweet & Spicy Ramen.
Today's review is from a brand that is the largest instant noodle manufacturer in China. And despite that pedigree, this is the first time I'm trying one of their products: Kang Shi Fu Braised Artificial Beef Flavor Soup Noodle. Kang Shi Fu is also called "Master Kong" according to most online retailers and the Wikipedia page for this company. But I do have a colleague in the noodle review world who says that Kang Shi Fu and Master Kong are actually separate companies and that there's some sort of stolen branding mascot thing going on between the two of them. I don't know which of those things is correct and I really don't have a dog in the fight of Chinese manufacturers stealing each other's trademarks. So I will just say that 99% of the time you can find this product and many other products under either name, Kang Shi Fu or Master Kong, if you're looking to buy any of their flavors online.
