These retail for about $11-$12 at Asian grocers, so this is a deal.
You just said it yourself, before the great inflation.
It's a deal as its cheaper than what you can get it for currently.
Not what you paid many years ago.
As a noodle lover, thanks OP great post
Hot deal!
thanks OP.Oooh 2x spicy! Just how spicy are we talking here?
Yes
If these are the ones I'm thinking of / have tried - the spiciest instant noodle I've ever tried, by far. I love spicy food so it was fun
lol they have literally measured the spiciness of their noodles - and yes, 2 x spicy!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hot_Chicken_Flavor_RamenI feel like their heat ratings feel way off compared to what I'd expect. The 2x spicy being similar SHU to a jalapeno is not even close to me.
There's also a 3x spicy variant, I'm still making my way through that pack but it's quite deadly!
I half the Shin Ramyun spice, and that has a SHU score of 2,700. 3x would be over 13000 - suicide heat!
Supposedly Bulmawang is 14444 SHU.
If you think 13,000 is suicide please dont go anywhere near Habanero, 350,000 or Scorpion which are up to 1.2m SHU. Just pretend Reapers dont exist as even I dont enjoy that…
@Ravensbane: The thing with these ramens though vs a hot sauce or whatever is the starchy sauce really coats the mouth and sticks around. I enjoy things about as spicy as they can be but something about these noodles is beyond the numbers quoted.
@Ravensbane: The Scoville rating on these is an absolute troll. These burn easily as hard as any bird's eye chilli or even a low end Habanero (imo.)
@Ravensbane: Yeah the Scoville rating on it is a lie. It does not feel like merely "13,000". I recommend you try it. It's torturously but addicting spicy.
I caved and bought this stuff for the first time based on comments here. Wow. This stuff brings the heat. WOW!! I am impressed! It's so hot, I taste no chicken at all. I had to wait for it to cool down temperature wise. That makes it easier to eat.
I will never understand this SHU scale. I have the #10 sauce from Hot Ones which is supposedly 2M+ Scoville. I can eat that on a wing, and while its extremely hot, I handle it fine. No rushing for milk or anything. These noodles though…. wow. Different league.
Another super spicy thing: "I can't feel my face" crushed chill flakes: https://www.flatironpepper.com/products/i-cant-feel-my-face
List as 750K+ Scoville. Really really hot if you use too much at once.
Additional thought: you can save on your heating bills by just eating these noodles. Offsets the $7.50.
@bk1973: Did you finish it?
The next morning isn't worth eating these haha. The noodles itself are so good though.
I find eating it with about 1/4 of the sauce pack is a good sweet spot.
@Circly: I did. I'm a little worried about tomorrow morning. :-) I think my favourite instant noodles are the Paldo Fun & Yum Teumsae Jjajang. Not nearly as spicy as the 2X noodles, but definitely a lot of taste. The Shim Ramyun made with milk is also very good (add a medium-boiled egg too maybe). I use Aaron and Claire's (from YouTube) cooking method.
I assume you're slowly making your way through 1 packet? I tried the 3x spicy a little while back and it took me most of an afternoon to get through
Yeah similar experience whenever I have these, sitting there for ages trying not to die haha.
I add a bit of milk into the mixture which helps and makes it more creamy too but yeah almost to no avail.
Oh yeah that 3x gave me experience I never had before with spicy food. My finger tips tingles while eating. Painful! I ate 3 out of the 5 packs, couldn’t bear eating the rest.
I also learned that the best way to tame the heat was a side of milkshake. Milk and iced water just made it worse
LMAO! I don't blame ya. I got gastritis from these. Expensive.
I don't think it tastes 2x compared to the normal packs, it is very spicy though!
Can confirm - as a moderate chili lover I tried these once and almost couldn't finish (and regretted it later), very spicy.
You did well grasshopper. Keep practising and you will conquer.
I love the taste of this but far out my bum hole gets the flames of hell treatment afterwards
not a great idea to have it before your Sunday long run…
Park Runs?
Can second that comment did a 10km after one of these (standard black pack) for lunch and it was a regrettably dumb move.
Haha yes… That's not the best idea..
Running will speed up the punishment sooner .
Thank you for letting us know. I was just about to ask about the butt hole factor. I'll pass on this deal. ⭕
FYI, 핵 means Nuclear in the package.
NUCULAR!
The toilet definitely gets nuked
Do it in the garden and no bug will ever visit near there.
Won't be the only thing it will deter.
"Will it burn my mouth? It'll destroy your mouth."
And french kiss your b.hole so you get to enjoy it twice!
LMAO! Doubt it. By the time it reaches there it will be 0.25 strength. What you need is 2x!!!!
3x for the lava escaping ones rear end.
I usually get the black x1 spicy packs and even they are too hot, even though I eat spicy food daily
"white" people or I guess Anglo Saxons aren't very good with spice.
This is a true generelisation.
That is the nature of generalisation. In general, white people don't do well with spice.
it's completely unnecessary.
So is this comment, but who's keeping count?
Everyone got what that means and so did you..
All you wanna do is pick a fight over nothing lol.
True, but I bet you would be the the first to defend it if it was said against another race. Just saying.
@pufffdragon: It's a shame the mods don't do anything about such blatant racism. Racism is racism, no matter who it is against
@BargainMe: This isn't racism though, just a generalisation. Just like saying Indians can handle lots of spice.
I bet
Another one 🤦🏻♂️
Well that would have been one stupid bet because I don’t play that woke nonsense, never did
All you grown ups here getting so emotional over ‘words’ is just a sight a watch.
Intent over Content
Why u don't understand? Simples my man.
If you don't follow the history of this brand/product you don't understand. This is the "fire noodle challenge" created by the Korean Englishman. All people were white and couldn't handle the spice…
They're just saying that Asian cuisine is spicier than most western cuisine. It's not that serious, Twitter.
Means it is spicier than Sriracha.
Go to Korea and watch little kids happily eating spicy Kimchi that you as a Honky cannot go near, you will know
Honky?
Honky is a joke word that urban black guys would call white people especially in the 60's and 70's. It can also be used self-deprecatingly by white people about themselves. You can see references from Family guy to Platoon and many other movies.
You really didn't know that?@John: Like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YHi3FD4o-S8 Peter is saying the jury is stacked with white people (honkies) but of course he, is too. So it's a joke…
I guess it makes sense about Hong Kong people being also called 'Hongky' but I have never heard that one before.
The closest is 'Honkers' for Hong Kong - that was used in TV ads for years
That's not a deal. The asian store near me sells a 5 pack for $6.99.
Lucky for you, all the ones near me sell them for a minimum $9.
It’s different for every place
I found the ones in Brissie sold them at a good price, but the ones in Melbourne are not. Sad. :(
Yeah I'm in Brissie. Sometimes I even see them at $5+ for a 5 pack.
i have seen them for $4.99 too in Syd Tong Li, but they are short dated
You must be incredibly lucky. The Asian store near me sells a 5 pack for about $11.50.
I thought there got to $5 on specials. I guess not anymore..
I like mixing a table spoon of peanut butter with it or with a side of tuna/kewpi/spring onion mixture
Peanut butter eh? never thought of that.
never thought about it. I shall try
Interesting… Will try that.
I tried cooking in milk based on a reddit recommendation and liked it too.
How are these compared to Shin Rhamyuen?
These are about 20x more spicy and also not served in a soup like shin ramyun. But they are delicious.
From 1-10, Shin is 1 and this is 10.
If you have hemorrhoids, you will know with these. Not with Shin.
Love eating these. My tastebuds get stronger to handle more spice, but the other end never does 🔥🔥
REALLY? HAve you eaten about 4 weeks in a row. The other end does get stronger. DO TRY IT.
Can't risk getting a haemorrhoid again… 😂
wow covid really brought in some serious inflation on these. fairly sure when the spicy noodle challenge started in social years ago it was just $1 a pack…so like $5.50 to $6 for this
I know what you mean. For example indomie mi goreng box used $15-18 now $25 damn
I used to cringe at having to pay over $9.99
Is it seriously $25 now? Fkn rip
this is way worse…we talking about 100%. DOUBLED
It's only spicy if it comes out spicy. Can confirm that these come out spicy!
Ugly packaging
Taste good with cheese
