I really enjoyed this product. It had light noodles and a tangy, spicy flavor. It came complete with a fork and a little tray. The little tray, after cleaned, had many uses too.

Small single protion but great taste and easy preparation. About half the price on Amazon as charged locally.

After recently acquiring a day job, where I need to dine at the desk, I started exploring boxed noodle dishes. I started with Annie Chun's Udon Soup Noodle Bowl, 5.3-Ounce Bowls (Pack of 6), and I loved them. Her Annie Chun's Teriyaki Noodle Bowl, 8.2-Ounce Bowls (Pack of 6)were not nearly as good, but still better than vending machines. These Pad Thai noodles came next. I have eaten Thai Kitchen Spring Onion soup from the grocery store, and it's terrific. I had high hopes for this Pad Thai from the reviews, on which I heavily rely for Amazon grocery shopping.

They are dry and gummy, and the sauce isn't sauce at all, but powder. You're supposed to sprinkle the 2 Tbl packet of powder onto the noodles AFTER you drain off the water, which leaves the noodles grainy. I tried leaving some of the water in to dissolve the seasoning and it only diluted what little flavor you get from the packet. Also, there are little bead-like morsels that won't dissolve at all. I think they are supposed to be tofu, but instead you just want to spit them out like watermelon seeds.

To be fair, I tried the noodles three times, adjusting the prep each time, and nothing helped. I'm not picky. I'm a real foodie, but I don't discriminate against a good mac-n-cheese or noodle bowl. I even thought of cooking the noodles and topping them with my own sauce, but the noodles were not even good enough for that. Don't waste your money, or your lunch hour, on these noodles.

I have become addicted to Pad Thai at the buffet next to my workplace. I sampled this product in an attempt to ween myself off this addiction.

Unfortunately this product manages to combine the flavor of a hot plastic tray with the texture of a wet stack of mailing envelopes. As other people have mentioned, it is difficult to evenly distribute the powder so that it co-mingles with the noodle paste in a way that doesn't lead to spots that taste like the back of a stamp while others contain an almost painful flavor explosion.

All in all the other box I bought is going in my cube next to the rest of my emergency rations; emergency because I won't eat them unless it's a choice between that and eating actual stationary for lunch.

I keep a few of these in my desk in case I don't have time to make my lunch before school. They are tasty, quick, filling, and nutritious.

I am eating this pad thai as I write!

Forget paying up to 10 bucks for lunch at eateries and take out locations. This dish is ready in less than 10 minutes and costs less than 2 dollars! How can you beat that?

Additionally, the product fills me up.

Thanks again, amazon!

I didn't like these noodles at all. The peanut packet tasted very stale, the over all flavor was very bland and there isn't much here for you money. Skip them.

Something about these noodles didn't measure up. I didn't expect them to be exactly like pad-thai, and they weren't. But further more, there was somehting unpleasant about eating them. Neither the taste or texture worked for me. I gave the rest of them away on craigslist, where I found that some people are big fans of them.

My daughter and I love Thai Kitchen, Noodle Cart Brand - Pad Thai. It's hard to find in stores. It's nice to stock up, save money and get a nutritious, healthy and fast meal.

I love this product and it's very reasonably priced at Amazon. Just add some diced meat (I like chicken), a scrambled egg, and some diced green onions and you have a great meal! If you can't finish the whole meal, you can microwave it with a teaspoon of water added; and it's still a great quick healthy dish. It's a good product for people on the go.
