43. Vewong A-One Tương tàu

Brand: Vewong

Name: A-One Tương tàu

Price: ?

Hello, dear readers, followers and random people that got lost in the Internet to stumble across this blog. I rose from the dead to, eh, blog. Sorry for keeping you waiting. (=_____=)"

This ramen here was actually a birthday present from my sister. No, wait.... could it be that she even gave me that before? I really can't remember. Well, anyways, here's the review:

First of all, I have to admit that, after eating these noodles, I thought I was having no fucking clue what Tương tàu actually is. I even googled it to make sure that Tương tàu is actually what I though it was before. It's a salty sauce made of black beans, containing whole pieces of them, too. What I went through here though was... pretty unexpected, I should say.

Only by opening the pack and seeing that it contained TWO(!!!!) packs of glutamate made me go like whuad. I even assumed that this soup must taste pretty decent if it contains so much glutamate. The bag down left I threw away immediately, it was chili. The one above contained a preeeeeeeeeeeeeetty strange oil/mass/fat portion, with little dark crumbs of something I cannot identify. One could suppose it was the black beans, but... go on reading, I'm still traumatised, actually...

here it still looks good, because I haven't tasted it yet

The red oil on the surface wasn't spicy, this soup wasn't spicy at all. At the beginning it tasted kinda sourish, later the broth is just salty, and very plain. I didn't taste any black beans at all, I have to admit. And I didn't even taste the two bags of glutamate! The broth was a 3/10.

And then, this popped up:

These curious dark, round crumbs. They looked like pepper, but they aren't. They tasted salty, which did remind me of black bean sauce though. But were crunchy. The crunchy type that, if you eat chicken drumsticks and come to the thinner lower side, you come upon some kind of darker bone stuff that is softer than actual bone and taste of nothing, but if you accidently chew it, it will stick between your teeth. Can anybody relate? Well it sounds pretty weird but these crumps reminded me of that.... I even tried to figure out what that was by looking it up on the ingredients, but..... I found nothing. This is so fucking suspicious, I tell ya.


Rating: I would not recommend this Ramen to you since I find it so suspicious and odd... Can somebody maybe tell me what that the black crumbs really are? Does anybody know? Oh my god, WHAT DID I JUST EAT?!?!??!?! (/;  A ;)/ (D)

IX. Vina Acecook good artificial spareribs flavour

Brand: Vina Acecook

Name: good artificial spareribs flavour

Price: 0,60 €

This time we have a review with vermicelli noodles. (WTF, why does that word sound so Italian? xD) The packaging looks very nice, with a sample picture on the front advising how the noodle soup could actually look like and what you should add/put on top of it to make them a more delicious and healthy meal and just pimp that lousy crap that’s actually inside the package.

The glass noodles are unregularely thick, and the fat ones don’t get soft at all in the boiled water but stay hard, which is a minus. The artificial spareribs flavour tastes too artificial, just really weird and strange, not like spareribs at all. The taste is not even close to any kind of meat flavour, well, at least not the ones I know. (-____________-)'' There are also some mini tofu chunks included in the vegetable bag. They have a specific taste, and I really can’t tell what they are doing in the soup, if that flavour is supposed to add some special taste to the soup (which already tastes crap), or if it’s to make the clear soup look less boring under the green herb stuff, or if it’s an attemp to interpret/imitate/impersonate the spareribs. I find it very disturbing.

Rating: Though the name is good, I didn’t find them good at all. D
