These are unfortunately real. I was not brave enough to try either
The bagel one was technically edible. The broth is white, with a hint of cheese, and bagel seasoning isn’t flavorful enough to distract from how grim it looks.
I did not bother with the pancake one, and from what I saw at my local grocers neither did anyone else
I tried the breakfast one. My buddy saw them at Walmart and bought me a cup cause I like to try weird things. Very anticlimactic honestly. Basically a normal cup of ramen, with a bit of dehydrated eggy bits. The only real flavor that comes through is a splash of syrup and salt. Not gross, just… boring.
This. I fucking loved the Everything Bagel. I would legit keep those in stock
Come on, if I could find those I would totally try them.
I’ve never met a ramen I didn’t like and that includes one I found on a windowsill in Tokyo at 3am, stone cold.
Artificially flavoured as
🤢
they should make an all dressed version to sell in canada
I have tried this. We saw it in the grocery store and wanted to see what it actually tasted like. I assure you we had no intention of ever buying it again. It was a traumatizing experience. It tastes sort of like salty spoiled fake maple flavor. It is almost impossible to get the flavor out of your mouth once it is there. It is very unpleasant. Would recommend 10 out of 10.
I am sickened, but curious regarding the breakfast one.
Come to think of it, I’ve never seen a specific breakfast cup noodle here in Japan. People do eat normal ramen and whatnot for breakfast. Pancakes wouldn’t be in it, though; those are considered dessert here. Edit: and maple syrup is not super popular with them (maybe at Denny’s or somewhere, but most pancake places are jams, chocolate, powdered sugar, etc.)
Wouldn’t Japanese breakfast ramen just be miso soup and natto flavored?
It really depends. A lot of Japanese these days are more toast-and-yogurt than the traditional Japanese breakfast (which itself varies regionally). For that, though: some kind of soup (probably, but not necessarily, miso), grilled fish, various pickled veg, possibly a small salad, etc.
I bought the smores one last week. Haven’t had the courage to try to eat it yet.
It’s fucking hot chocolate noodles with marshmallows lmao. It’s not good at all, but I was able to finish it
Welllll, I can’t say much about this specific product.
However, there was a span of about three years where ramen of one kind or another was about all I could afford, but I had access to freebies to doctor them up with.
Among the freebies were things like syrups and other condiments. So it didn’t take long before the inevitable boredom of chronic ramen intake set in and i started adding whatever I had to the mix.
Sweet ramen isn’t bad. If anything, it helps mute some of the saltiness.
Maple syrup in particular, I never wasted on ramen, not the real stuff, it’s just too damn good for that. But I kinda doubt they’re using real maple either. The imitation syrup on ramen is decent. Not as good as a dab of honey, or even a teaspoon of jelly, but decent.
If you’ve got sausage or bacon (or even bacon bits), the syrup works rather well. It doesn’t taste like a regular breakfast, but it gets a similar vibe that isn’t unpleasant at all. Dunno if I’d stretch to calling it good, though I would with some eggs added in. Eggs + ramen is always a good thing.
Now, the absolute best sweet ramen I ever made was with prickly pear cactus syrup I got in a care package from my dad. I was working in a relatively nearby city to home, and he traveled for work a lot, so he’d mail me the occasional box o’ local goodies since it might be months before we crossed paths.
Anyway, I’m just saying that this one might not be bad. Might be, but I’d try it if I find it locally.
Just wait for the return of the pumpkin spice one, this fall
I’ve tried the bagel, breakfast, and s’mores. I’ll have to keep an eye out for the pumpkin
The second image implies and everything bagel without cream cheese, which seems like a fundamental contradiction.
I think I’m focusing on this so as to not comprehend the horror of these pictures in general.
I think the gist of it is that the bagel itself has to have cream cheese applied. Only train of thought I can figure out
