Oriental vs. Soy Sauce Ramen Review

Journal by takyon

I saw these two Maruchan ramen packets next to each other at a Walmart, and decided to taste test them.


They taste the same, and they are the same. There's nothing to review.

Oriental had a 2015 copyright date, 2019 for Soy Sauce. Both had a similar expiration date, probably August 2020.

Soy Sauce is clearly the politically correct rebranding. The competitor, Nissin (Top Ramen), did the same.

Bring back Mushroom flavor, you fucks!

    And without a problematic name either:

    I should say that I don't just eat these by themselves (although I expect they'd be okay that way too), I use either chicken or beef broth instead of water and add garlic and sriracha to add to the kick.

    Then I stir-fry some veggies (broccoli & carrots, chinese broccoli or bok choy, etc.) with cubed pork or beef.

    The flavor packets along with some garlic go with the meat/veggies and once the noodles are about half done, they and their broth go in the pan with the other stuff. Three to five more minutes and deliciousness ensues!

    Then again, if you don't like spicy (the flavor packets really aren't all that spicy) you can forego the sriracha.
