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 it when it was in stock. Now, I'm excited that I finally get to try it, albeit in cup form rather than pack form.
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, and this product promises a lot of garlic flavor. Could this Myojo Ippei-Chan Yakisoba with Garlic Mayonnaise unseat Myojo's Mustard Mayonnaise Yakisoba from my top spot? Let's find out!
This Nissin Cup Noodle BIG Hot and Sour Soup is Nissin's Japanese take on Chinese hot & sour soup, and is a limited time offering from Nissin that comes back around every so often due to its popularity. I snagged one a couple months ago, so here is a proper review for your reading pleasure! 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 cup, of course).
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, and Myojo. Neat! I'm always excited to try something new.
It's been a while since I took a look at one of these Nissin Cup Noodles flavors from Nissin's Hong Kong facility, 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 Nissin Cup Noodles Artificial Beef Flavor differs from the American Cup Noodles version, read on!
One of the things I love about ordering noodles from Japan is seeing what limited-edition flavors Nissin comes out with every couple of months. This Nissin Cup Noodle Three Cheese Chicken Paitan caught my eye one of the last times I ordered from Japanese-snacks-republic.com, and I knew I had to have it. Since this is a limited-edition flavor, read on to see if I think this is something you should order ASAP.
Here's a Japanese variety I got out of the very final ZenPop ramen subscription box that I haven't tried yet. The official product name according to ZenPop is "Acecook Nomihosu Ippai Gotouchi-hen Sapporo Noukou Miso Ramen," although you can find this online under the name "Acecook Sapporo Rich Miso Ramen."
One of the benefits of doing reviews here on the site is I can churn out reviews of limited-time products much more quickly than if I had to schedule time to film and edit for the YouTube channel. So with that in mind, I'm checking out the first of many limited-time Cup Noodle products from Nissin right here for your reading pleasure, with this Nissin Cup Noodle BIG Butter Chicken Curry. Oh yes, and it comes in the "BIG" Cup Noodle size only.
Today's review is of a product that probably shouldn't exist, but here we are anyway. This is Myojo Ippei-Chan Yakisoba Strawberry Shortcake Flavor, and no, I'm not kidding and this isn't a joke. You could say this is clickbait or even rage bait, but even if I wasn't doing my channel or this website, I would still really, really want to know what this tastes like.
I’m wrapping up 2024 on the channel (or rather, I intended to but something else came along) with one of the most unusual instant ramen products I’ve ever reviewed, and that’s saying something. This is Nissin Raoh Fugu Dashi Yuzushio Ramen, a limited-edition Japanese release built around pufferfish extract. Yes, that pufferfish. The famously venomous one that requires special licensing to prepare safely in Japan. Any time a product like that shows up in instant form, curiosity alone makes it impossible to ignore.
