Noodle Journey Episode 12: Unif Artificial Beef and Sauerkraut

Notes since filming: I eventually learned a while after filming this that lots of Chinese brands produce this flavor, but it’s known more commonly as “pickled vegetables” rather than “sauerkraut.” I ended up loving the flavor in this and I still occasionally crave it, but those soft noodles really brought the score down.

Original video description:

This was an interesting and unexpected flavor I found for purchase online! Sauerkraut and instant noodles together… okay? This review is a little longer than usual, but I promise it takes some surprising turns.

Noodle Journey Episode 11: Nissin Cup Noodle Seafood

Notes since filming: Credit where credit is due: if it wasn’t for this flavor, I’d probably never have bothered with any other Cup Noodles. I assumed this would have the same cheap salty taste as the other ones sold in America, but I was glad to be wrong. I keep this one stocked in my pantry.
