Fanfuckingtastic! Nice kick, and tastes great. I got three different packs that are variations on a theme. Short expiry so they were ≤$1/each. Wish I got more now. Is cheese a weird flavor for Korean food?
What kind of cheese flavor? I watched 3 reviews on YT and read 1 on t3h g00gles and none explained what the cheese reminded them of. And 1 of the reviewers said it wasn't good but admitted he doesn't like cheese lol. There are a million different cheeses, and as you said. It's not just cheese but Korean too, so I'm confused about what cheese flavor they were going for. I just went to the Asian Market to look for what you got, but they only sell them in the regular ramen 5 packs. I was gonna try it but I saw the Cream Carbonara, which is another head scratcher for a Korean food lol. Even more confusing it's hot chicken flavored. But I read a bunch of reviews that said it was delicious. I bought the X2 spicy 5 pack yesterday, and it's fuckin hot hot. They claim 10,000 SHU, which is up there, but I've eaten way spicier things that didn't make my nose run and have me in semi pain like these noodles. So I dunno what kind of trickey's going on here. The entire Buldak line's spicy, and apparently even the one you got has quite a kick. The 2x are impressively hot. For anyone who likes spicy the X2 also tastes good, it's burn your mouth hot but there's still a nice base flavor. They have a stir fry and a soup version. The Stir Fry you drain all but about 1/2 a cup of water and stir fry it with the sauce for half a minute. The soup one is like a traditional broth ramen. I got the stir fry and love how it's thick and sticky. And the non Buldak ramen from Samyang have zero spice. As far as packaged ramen goes, this stuff is SO much better than Maruchan or Nissin. It's like 4-5x the price but totally worth it. $2 a bag isn't bad for something this good. The noodles are bigger, firmer and have a a wonderful chew. You cook them for 5 minutes, if you cooked Maruchan for 5 minutes you'd have a bowl of mush.
If that cheese one tastes like a spicy noodle based version of Kraft Mac & Cheese I'll probably end up buying all of it lol. You said it's fantastic so I'll go pick some up in a few days. The store also had a Habenaro Lime which sounds outstanding.
