I had to get this snack, because there is a little red headed child with a giant hammer on the front. I never actually ate it because I had my fill of ramen in college – mostly mixed with salsa, my version of Kor-Mex fusion cuisine or with egg and kimchi.
The ingredients are about what you’d expect except there are 3 grams of fiber and 15% of your daily recommended calcium. It’s practically a health food! No trans fat either!
Yup, looks like ramen.
I sprinkled the suspiciously orange barbecue flavor packet on, then realized that the picture contained a vital clue. I was supposed to open the bag, remove the flavor packet then crush the noodles into bite sized pieces inside the bag, then add the flavoring, close the bag and shake. Oh! When will I learn to read first, eat second?
I did as best I could on the plate. It tasted like dry ramen noodles with a sweet, not very barbecue tasting salt sprinkled on. I remember in grade school a lot of kids liked to eat regular ramen dry with the flavor packet sprinkled on – this was just like that, only very vaguely barbecued flavored and four times the price. Not bad, but not good either and not worth spending extra to get a picture of a red headed kid with a hammer on the front.
