Nissin Cup Noodle Ramen Original Noodle Soup 2.4 oz (Pack of 6)

I’ve enjoyed these as a quick lunch.

Almost the same as the soy flavour cup noodles made in Japan. I will say that the Japan version is better than the USA version in flavour, noodle texture and inclusions.

Good taste. I add a bit of pickled veggies and chicken too when I have it on hand, otherwise they taste just fine

While Original flavor is not my favorite flavor, i do still like these alot. The Original flavor are microwaveable while the other flavors currently are not. This is important to me because all we have at our shop is a microwave and dont have alot of time for lunch

I heard this flavor was similar to the original Cup Noodles sold in Japan, so I decided to give it a try. It is indeed similar, but it seems the taste has changed quite a bit recently. After all, over the course of its long history—55 years since the original was released—the flavor has been updated many times. I don’t remember every single version, but I feel like this Cup Noodles has become much milder in flavor.Back in the day, it had more of a junk-food vibe—that distinctive, addictive taste of being fried in cheap oil—but that sensation has largely disappeared. It does keep the basic flavor, but it’s become safe and uncontroversial that anyone can eat without hesitation, but at the same time, its unique character has vanished, which is a bit sad.Of course, it’s true that this makes it safer to eat, a good comfort food for everyone, and this Original flavor still strongly remains one of the three most popular Cup Noodles in Japan—alongside Curry and Seafood—so I suppose my taste buds are just getting old. Either way, personally, I don’t really have a strong reason to go out of my way to buy it again.
