I'm embarrassed to ask this


Lately I've been noticing alot of different kinds of instant noodles in the movies I've been watching, and I'm wondering if anyone knows or can recommend a place to order some of this stuff online?

The stores around here offer nothing and I've got a craving. Any help would be appreciated. Thank ya

wow, that's a bummer.......I didn't know they didn't have Ramen in some parts of Pennsylvania.

Have you tried the Asian markets there?

but here are two sites that sell Ramen (the second one is by the case, too :whistling - just run a search for "ramen")
Asian Food Grocer
Buy the Case

bigfrog,

PM me your mailing address. I'll send you several different samples. No charge! I usually get my instant ramen and other goods at Daiei in Pearl City (Hawaii).

Thanks for that Smile

I live where it's still possible to see people on horse and buggy and have no idea where the closest asian grocer would be.

Although I'd have to say I'm actually willing to drive at this point.....just for noodles Goggle eyes



Wow....that's a nice selection.
Any brands come recommended?
Thanks for the help thumright

The goods are in the mail. It's a combination of Japanese, Chinese, and Korean noodle soup and yakisoba products. When you start evaluating each item, let us know what you think of it. Take a picture and post it if you can. For just about all of the items, they're easy to figure out how to prepare them. I actually thought about creating a web site reviewing these instant thing-a-ma-bobbies. I also threw in a box of Pocky sticks... Eat these and you're REALLY gung-ho Asian (reminds me of Onegai Teacher Laugh ) And, I threw in a bottle of ramune. It's not that difficult to open.

Thank you so much!! I cant wait!!

Pennsylvania is the junk food capital of the united states....anything unhealthy you'd like in return?? Big Smile
Most people I know outside of this state have never had half the junk we have here....shoo-fly pie, martins kettle cooked chips (lots of lard), Snyders of Hanover pretzels, all kinds of chocolate and candy.....if you can think of it, we have it.
Of course....I guess we have healthy stuff too.
Anyway, if there is anything you'd like I'd be more than happy to send it to ya. Just let me know.

Thanks again!!
cheers

I had a taste of those carbonated soda with the marble that you push down years ago, but it wasn't so bad. It's an acquired taste......something like sparkling/seltzer water. Roll Eyes

and yes, take pictures of the ramen that groink sent you........reviews would be nice, too~ Big Smile I guess you got yourself a yakisoba bonus as well. thumleft

Why don't you try www.ramencity.com? You can enjoy your ramen while watching their rented Korean drama. Smile

Few ways to think of it:

1. Take a can of Sprite or 7-Up. Pour it into a glass, and then add four ounces of water.

2. Take a bottle of carbonated water, and add a few tablespoons of powered sugar.

It's not awful tasting by any means. I like it! My only beef with it is that there's not enough fluid in this bottle. Normally cans of soda are about 12 fluid ounces. But this bottle is a little over 6 fluid ounces - enough for just two or three gulps. I think a can of Red Bull has just as much content as ramune, but at least the flavor of Red Bull forces you to drink it slowly.

Yes, I will post pictures and review each item. It's the least I can do Smile

Besides, I'll actually have an excuse to use my digital camera. Funny... I'm in school for photography......and I despise digital pictures. lol. But this serves a good purpose so I can set my feelings aside Smile
