I wondered when Amazon might get around to offering this product. I've loved eating these basic fried and dehydrated noodles for decades, and will be glad to order them by the case. These simple noodles are great with tons of Tabasco--quick and satisfying.
The instructions are plain silly, though. My family has always prepared these noodles this way: 1. boil water in a pot, 2. add in the soup base, 3. add in the noodles, and then cook them together till the noodles are soft enough to eat (I like them slightly undercooked). Cooking the noodles in the soup base makes them taste better. Do not overcook, and do not let noodles sit in soup for too long while eating (e.g., longer than half an hour), or noodles will become too soft and fat.
Then I pull the noodles out first and douse them with hot sauce--so the hot sauce will cling to the noodles as well as the soup--and then pour in the soup. That vinegary Tabasco taste mixed with the salty noodles and soup is very good. The noodles are also good with an egg--cracked into the pot after the soup base, and cooked together with the noodles.

The Sapporo noodles are more expensive than the ones you find at the local supermarket, but they are also a notch above the cheaper brands. The noodles do not bloat up and get mushy when boiled. As a consequence, the cooked noodles have a pleasant Al dente bite. The spice pack is pretty delicious, and I frequently boil some frozen dumplings from Trader Joe's when I make these noodles. The price offered on Amazon is really awesome. My local supermarket is selling these for $1 per pack.
To be healthy:
(a) throw away the spice pack. These noodle spice packs, any brand, are high in sodium, fats, MSG.
(b) boil noodles and throw away the water. These noodles, any brand, are coated with a waxy substance to protect their freshness. They will come out when you boil it- so pour away the water. The noodles will taste better too.

These don't stay in stock too long so buy them when they are available. I waited for a year before Amazon started stocking these. They are 25% cheaper than the local supermarket.
Great quality and not your typical Ramen noodle. Once you have these, you'll never go back to the 10 for a $1 Ramen noodles (unless you are in college).

I bought a case after reading all the glowing reviews here. Big disappointment. Sure, it is a little better than the 10 cent supermarket ramen, but not much better for 10 times the price. Frozen ramen from any Asian grocery store costs about the same as this stuff and does taste 10 times better. Korean ramyun (various brands) also costs about the same and tastes much better, especially if you like spicy foods. And of course none of these instant noodles tastes anywhere near as good as the ramen in a half decent Japanese restaurant.

These are the best ramen noodles you can buy. They are FANTASTIC. I could almost eat them every day. I have been eating them for over 20 years so for me they are totally comfort food. My favorite thing to add to them is an egg. Just crack in an egg while the noodles are cooking. It is also fun to add any leftover meat you have in the fridge, just slice it up and put it on top.

Great classic ramen....
but go find a Korean Grocery near you (they are every where)
In a Korean Grocery you can get one box for $10.

Love this brand and flavor of ramen. The upper tier, of this sort of food. I only ding it one star, because I have yet to see it available for Subscribe and Save. Anyways, still a better deal than I can get in the Brick & Mortar stores. So, there's that, I suppose . . .

Maybe you can call me a Ramen expert..
I recommend this ramen if you want to experience a Japanese ramen. It will taste OK for a couple of times, but you will be easily fed up with it. The soup base is too weak and naive. Yea, Japanese ramen is good but what I mean by that is the real ramen you can get in Japan.
As to instant ramens, Korean ones are much better.

Great ramen
GREAT ramen! Make sure you have a big soup bowl because these noodles are way bigger then most and won't fit into a small bowl. Add some beef or veg to knock it up another notch.
