That's how it looks like. It's a weird one. Not my fave.

Picked these up at Costco today. Taste great but the presentation leaves something to be desired haha I cooked them exactly as it said to. What did I fuck up? Go easy on me, I’m roundeye. This isn’t my forte haha

Bought a box of these from Costco, ate 1 pack and promptly returned the box. No broth type noodles already aren't my style unless its cold ramen plus the flavor was pretty boring. Might be ways to make it a little more interesting but if I'm eating instant ramen its cuz I'm short on time or feeling lazy.

This round eye gives it 6/10. Sounds like it's just a pack of soy sauce. So it's probably supposed to pair with some sort of meat sauce like spaghettis.

My sister bought a box and gave a pack to everyone to try out. None of us were really impressed either.

Mama Pho Bo was the best out of this bunch. The cheese hot chicken Samyang one was unbearably spicy for my white ass

The Shin Black is where it's at. Not really spicy, but they're so good.

The hot chicken ones are def hot. I haven't had the cheese ones, but other varieties are legitimately fucking spicy.

Wait, cheese ramen? Is that a really good idea or a really bad idea?

Consensus feedback on the costco FB group is that you really need to take care not to overcook those noodles otherwise they are disgusting.

Well theres cheese on pasta/spagetti/ravioli, and ramen is technically a pasta right? So good idea!

The concept of a Costco Facebook group is very disturbing to me

Depends on the cheese. Shitty kraft singles tends to pair well with Shin spicy noodles.

I'm part of the group just to see what the fuss was about. Its exactly what I thought it was going to be. The things and discussions that go on in there are quite Not saying that everyone in the group is a 'Karen' but they sure all look like Karens. Lots of chatter about sugar cookies and how they don't need to ever shop anywhere else.

Pretty much. Like any group it’s 99% noise and 1% something that is relevant to me. I admit I tried the raspberry cookies because of that group and they are decent lol. Wife hates me for introducing more sugary snacks into the house though.

I tried the Samyang 2X spicy the other day and was not a fan. The 1X is spicy and tasty but 2X is just too much for me.

When I think of ramen, I also picture the broth that goes with it as being just as important, if not more. I know not all ramen is served with broth, but to me it's generally one in the same.

What you guys are describing sounds like Kraft Dinner with long noodles to me.

That's the stuff I was talking about. It was all spicy and no flavor. (whitey with exceptionally high spice-tolerance here)

If you guys like spicy, buy the Samyang 2x Spicy Chicken Ramen and add a spoonful of peanut butter. Adds a layer of depth that is amazingly good.

Tried this yesterday. Holy shit. It's on the upper end of my spice tolerance. Actually needed a glass of milk afterwards.

[Disoblige]

I agree. Lately I am all about dressing up instant noodles to make it into a full meal deal. Amazing how a combination of fresh produce and meats can elevate a bag of ramen.

My friend gave me a few packs to try. I think I overcooked them by 30-45s so definitely follow the recommended time. I added some air fried dumpling and threw in a couple spoonfuls of homemade chili oil.

Just put the shin black into my cart at superstore for tomorrow. Will report back.
