Noodle Journey Episode 186: Nissin Raoh Fugu Dashi Yuzushio

Original video description:

As we celebrate not only the end of 2024 but of the channel reaching 2,000 subscribers, I bring you one of the craziest instant ramen cups I’ve ever seen. You read the thumbnail correctly: Nissin made a fish and yuzu salt broth flavored with actual pufferfish as part of their Raoh product line. How does a potentially poisonous fish taste in a ramen cup? You’ll have to watch the review to find out.

Noodle Journey Episode 161: Nissin Cup Noodles Campfire S’mores Ramen

Notes since filming:

This is probably tied with immi’s Black Garlic “Chicken” as the worst thing I’ve reviewed on this channel. There’s a guy on Reddit who pops up every now and then to say how much he likes these, and I compulsively downvote him each time because he is very, very wrong. There’s absolutely nothing to like about this, and I will die on that hill.

Original video description:

You noodle lovers are not prepared for what Nissin has just added to its Cup Noodles line: Campfire S’mores Ramen. Will this be a surprisingly good flvaor or an unholy abomination? Watch the video for my (very) unfiltered review!

Noodle Journey Episode 152: Nissin Cup Noodles Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese

Notes since filming:

A lot of people have mentioned how much they hate the “sauce” in this since I filmed the review. I didn’t find the sauce to be the weak point here, but maybe that’s just me. Honestly, if Nissin just retooled this variety a little bit, it would be pretty good.

Original video description:

Here’s another crazy flavor from Nissin! In the same vein as their Pumpkin Spice and Breakfast flavors, here is their brand-new limited-edition Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese flavor. If you are at all intrigued, you’ll want to check out my review.

Noodle Journey Episode 150: Paldo Strawberry Bibimmen

Notes since filming:

Even with all of the off-the-wall flavors Nissin has come out with in their American Cup Noodles, this might still be the strangest flavor I’ve reviewed. What’s stranger is how unexpectedly good it is! If this one ever comes back seasonally and you can find it, you should definitely give it a whirl.

Original video description:

It’s time to celebrate 150 reviews with one of the most unexpected flavor combinations you’re ever likely to see. Paldo’s excellent Bibimmen noodles combined with strawberry powder?! If your curiosity is piqued, you’ll want to check out this review, because this product is a limited edition!

Notes since filming:

The only one of Nissin’s gimmick noodles I’ve repurchased. You may balk at the idea of this one, but it actually works.

Original video description:

Your eyes do not deceive you. The maniacal geniuses at Nissin have actually made a Cup Noodles breakfast-flavored ramen. Is this stuff actually good? Watch the review to find out!

Noodle Journey Episode 43: Nissin Cup Noodles Pumpkin Spice Flavor

Notes since filming: 

Little did I know that this would be one of the least offensive of Nissin’s gimmick noodle flavors, considering some of the stuff they’ve released since. People got all worked up about this, but honestly it’s pretty good with some whipped cream.

Original video description:

This is by far the strangest instant noodle product I’ve ever seen, so of course I have to review it! Is Nissin’s Cup Noodles Pumpkin Spice flavor worth a purchase?

Find this one on eBay or at your local supermarket.
