5.0 out of 5 stars It's hotter than you think! (but also very tasty)
(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Ok, where to begin? The packaging says it has under 10,000 SHU. This can't be true, as I regularly use 25K and 100K Cayenne. Maybe it is though, who knows.The packaging is simple - on the front is a very enraged fire chicken warning you what is to come. Inside are your typical cake of dried Ramen noodles and a small packet of what looks to be an oil of some kind. That's it. This is a no-frills nuclear hot ramen.I made this three ways:1) As directed on packaging - I left a few tbsp of water after draining the noodles, added the oil packet, tossed, and served. I took the first bite, noting it has a pepperiness to the chicken flavor that's pretty good. Not too hot yet. Take a bite. Ok I can feel it getting a bit warm. Take a bite. My heartrate is visibly up. Take a bite. It burns SO MUCH. At this point I'm cackling at how hot it is and the fact my entire mouth and lips are numb from the burning, and I can't stop drooling. At this point I realize finishing this will do a number on my already sensitive gut, despite the fact I want to finish because it actually tasted really good (when you can taste it, that is). It's very splishy-splashy since you mix a few tbsp of water with the oil, and I felt the oil didn't have good coverage on the noodles. Next comes attempt #2.2) Not reserving any water - Very similar to #1 except this time the oil is VERY well adhered to the noodle. Like #1 except even more intense.3) Half packet of oil, not reserving any water - Ok, I found the sweet spot. It was pleasantly spicy without being too spicy. I still had to take my time with it, but I was able to get through the entire packet and enjoy the experience. Was it still very, very hot? Yes. But this time it didn't render me a blathering mess, and I didn't hate myself the next day (too much), and I could really taste the peppery chicken flavor.In all 3 attempts, the noodles are pretty good and have a nice chew to them. Not your typical cheap thin ramen noodle.Also, to note, since I'm alive and writing this review, I did not do all 3 attempts in one sitting. These were spaced out about a week apart.If you like spicy ramen, and you can tolerate decently hot things, give these a try. They're actually really, really good, if you can handle the heat.
5.0 out of 5 stars Cheesy and spicy! Yum!
Quattro is better than the cheese ones! They’re not extreme spicy but spicy enough for me to get a runny nose and I love it. I put some butter and dumped a spare packet of Mac n cheese powder into the ramen and sheesh, they were yummy! Gyat dang!
5.0 out of 5 stars The 3x spicy is tasty and hot.
The 3x spicy is so delicious, one of the best tasting spicy foods i've tried. Alternatively, I could say it's one of the spiciest delicious foods I've tried. Shame that they are so expensive. I would say the heat level is similar to buffalo wild wing's Blazin wings. Not a huge step up from the 2x spicy, but it's noticeable.
5.0 out of 5 stars Forget Youtube. Try it spice lovers!
Well, I just HAD to try this after seeing many Youtube videos (buldak bokkeum myun or fire noodle callenge) of people trying this ramen. I can take spice pretty well, but even then I was a bit scared to try this assuming it's probably a sadistically hot inedible product aspiring fame through people's agony. With the cooked ramyun bowl in front of me, I breathed in deep, meditated a little, and then took the first bite. I must say I was both disappointed and relieved at the same time. It was not nearly as spicy as I had expected, and it was quite tasty! The sauce flavor is akin to the popular Korean dish Ddukbokki, except it's a little more savory (chicken?) and spicier. The sweetness tapers down the level of spice, and I finished the bowl without flinching although my nose pooled sweat long afterwards. As for a relevant gauge, if you enjoy and can eat Buffalo Wild's "hot" wings, then you won't have trouble finishing this. I also noticed that many people prep this noodle incorrectly and comment that it lacks flavor. The noodles won't lack flavor if you don't dilute it down by cooking it like other common ramen noodles. I noticed there's no English instruction on the received product anywhere, so I decided to post the translated cooking instruction:1. Boil 3 cups (or more) of water, and then cook the noodles for 5 minutes.2. Drain water (leave about 8 spoons worth), add the packaged liquid hot sauce, and then return to stove to stir the noodles at low heat for about 30 seconds.3. Turn off the stove, then mix in the dry sesame/seaweed package with the noodles.On step 1, I've boiled for 4.5 minutes instead for firmer noodles.Step 2 is important - you should pretty much drain off most of the water you see using your fork/chopsticks as strainer as you pour off excess water off your cooking pot, and you should have just enough water hidden in noodles for a saucy consistency, not liquidy. Stirring on heat with the hot paste incorporates the flavor and thickens the sauce. If you end up with too much juice, raise the heat a bit and evaporate off the water until the sauce thickens.When properly prepared, the sauce should be thick enough to coat the noodles and allow the sesame seeds to stick to the lifted noodles.I noticed that my received product's expiration date was less than 6 months away (8/30/2015). I will have no trouble finishing the noodles before the expiration, but it can be off-putting to buy any almost expired product. I'm not sure what the usual expiration is for the ramyun given the inclusion of the liquid paste, but the noodles didn't smell stale nor rancid as I could usually tell from almost stale ramyun noodles.All in all, this was very worth a try to resolve my curiosity after laughing so much at Youtube people's reactions, and I feel superior and stronger!oh~~ my stomach is starting to burn...Update: Curiosity got me to try the more convenient cup ramyun version of this (my packs were gone too soon!), and I prefer these cooking packets hands down. The cup noodles are much thinner and less chewy, and you don't get as savory deeper taste attained by cooking the liquid paste with noodles. The cup version's instruction tells you to drain off all water before adding the flavor packets, so you're definitely supposed to consume these with practically no liquid. The thicker noodles in the cooking packs need help to infuse the flavor in the step #2 above (the reason to leave some water to cook off), and you get 140g instead of 70g (small cup) or 105g (big cup) instant versions. Besides the packs being much more affordable, you get more of it along with much better taste when you prepare it properly. Time to order some more...
4.0 out of 5 stars Very spicy, great flavor
These Ramen noodles are great quality. The noodles are slightly thicker than your typical ramen. There are two flavor packets provided, one powdered seasoning packet and one that is a thicker spicy chili paste. I cooked him as directed.And the texture of the noodles is perfect! My teenagers absolutely love them! I will caution you if you do not like spicy things. They are pretty intense!
5.0 out of 5 stars Hot and delicious
Same price as Walmart without all the hassle of going to the store. Always delicious too!
3.0 out of 5 stars Spicy.....
The cheese flavor was a little too much for me but the spicy sauce was great! Taste the spicy sauce as you add it to the noodles as a little goes a long way. I want to try a different flavor next to see if it was just the cheese I didn't like.
5.0 out of 5 stars Boyfriend loves it
Although it stains his beard, he really likes these noodles and say they taste good. Quality seems to be good as well.
Fort mais très bon

Excelente, picosita!!!
Excelente sabor y consistencia!!!
Delicious!
Love this flavour!! Certainly very cheesy, but I love that. I make it with adding some cream and sharp cheddar or mozzarella and it’s fantastic! Definitely cuts the spice of the buldak sauce if you make it this way. Toss in some boiled eggs and you’re set! Highly recommend
Yummy
Tiktok made me buy them lolThey are yummy.
Banned in some countries but never in our hearts
Some countries don't have the fortitude for these quite frankly, punishingly spicy noodles, but real people of character can take the heat! These are delicious, nutritious, and had my wife groaning in pain for two days. A must-buy item!
