The Last of My Quarantine Instant Ramen Stash, Nissin Cup Noodle Curry Flavor

For almost one week and nine meals, I went on an instant ramen binge, and out of it all, only Cup Noodle Curry reigned supreme.

I only rely on instant ramen for lunch, so I don’t have a problem because it’s not like I can’t stop or have to have it all the time even though I do admit having it a few times as a late-night snack and no it was not in a back alley or a truck stop parking lot.

Curry is like crack, once you had it, you keep on wanting more.

I take back what I said about drawing a line on crappy noodle quality because the curry more than made up for it

Spongy noodles and I don’t care because I’d eat this one again.

Photo Description: another shot of the Cup Noodle curry packaging. In this shot you can see the paper lid with "#1 curry instant noodles in Japan" and "for the creamiest curry, follow the instructions on the cup." — It’s good to be #1, and if only I could tout that.

1 Guy, 1 Cup

In Japan, it’s rude to eat food on the go while walking, but since this product comes in a styrofoam cup that doesn’t get too hot even with a hot broth in it, it’s ideal for us Americans to eat on the go. Plus, it fits your car’s cup holders.

Photo Description: inside the cup looks like little brownish yellow granules and lumps. Along with the curry colored filling, you can see specks of green which is most likely scallions. — Just pour water in, and 3 to 3-1/2 minutes later, you’re good to go.

Hot Water or Microwaved

Unlike a few of the other products that either requires a microwave or hot water to heat your food, this product can use either or. It can go both ways *wink *wink.

Photo Description: oh, those lumps must have been the potatoes. You can't have curry without a few potatoes and Nissin Cup Noodle has a number of chunks included. — There be potatoes here! I was not expecting that, so now I have meat and potatoes with my curry.

I Had Some Leftover Ribeye From Dinner the Other Night

I chopped up the leftovers and tossed it in, along with pieces of fat from the steak that goes great with curry and those chunks of potato.

Photo Description: the product only comes up to about half the cup size. — That cup design is so iconic.

It doesn’t look the greatest prior to being mixed up (it did smell good tho). I also don’t know about you, but when it comes to my Cup Noodle, I am a cup half full (call me negative, or maybe they need to fill that cup up).

Photo Description: once you mix it up though, it does look like there is a little more product in the cup from the noodles being tossed about. — If you have never had Japanese curry, this is a cheap way of trying it.

After I had given it a good mix, I snapped a few pics and downed it all (once again, yea, those tender cuts of ribeye went perfect in here).

Photo Description: golden strands of rectanglish noodles that are crinkly in look fill this cup. — Look at those golden locks of wavy blonde noodles.

Conclusion, This is My Favorite Cheap Instant Ramen

If I wasn’t sick of instant noodles, I might go out and buy some of the original Cup Noodles that I had grown up eating as a kid although getting to try the curry version is good enough, and I am more than content now. *8 hours later* I need more, but I can stop anytime I want although if you want to switch it up, I also suggest you try Japanese instant curry.
