42. MAMA Instant Bean Thread Clear Soup

Brand: MAMA
Name: Instant Bean Thread Clear Soup
Price: ?

I really love these fat Shiitake mushrooms on the package... And this time, it proves that even sometimes you really get what is on the cover, even with instant noodles!...

...but if you think you'll get REAL Shiitake and coriander and that weird-looking stuff on the left of the pack that kinda looks like hash (I mean the meat, you dumbass!!!), you're really dumb, hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha. The size of the noodle brick is pretty lousy, too.

Here's why I wrote you et what's pictured on top: the flavouring fat really tastes of Shitake. It was stunning! It also smells really strongly like coriander, which I personally don't like that much. Though the soup looks very boring, the noodles were pretty good: the possibility of choking on them is pretty high, that's what makes them good! So slimy and slippery, just be careful not to eat them too fast, har har. I finfished the bowl in about 2 minutes, don't try to beat my record, mate. 

The only bad thing here is the sand that remains, particels from the flavour powder that failed to dissolve.

Rating: B+

XXVIII. Vina Acecook Artificial Minced Pork Flavour

These are glass noodles from Vina Acecook, Vietnam, with Artificial Pork Flavour.
Another one of those suspicious artificial things... like, are the sitting in a lab, trying to create artificial pork flavour?
Scientist A: ''Hey, how's this, does it taste like artificial pork?''
Scientist B: ''Nah, still too close to real pork. Let's try adding those chemicals, to make it taste less real.''

Well, enough of my crap, here's the review.
Honestly, I don't even remember, how they were.... I forgot to take notes. I usually have for every review a folder with pictures and a Word Document, but it seems to be missing here... or maybe I was drunk? D8

This is what it looks like. I really like the purple and gold colour. ^^

The food picture is also pretty and nice. Although, I actually think, there is no such dish as glass noodle with minced pork in real? o.O''

Everything seperately packed. -.-

Which of course leads to a lot of trash, after unpacking everything. Dx

   

Everything in a bowl. x3

And this is the final result. Oh, so greasy! D8

Uhm yeah... they were ok I guess. Since I don't know, how true artificial minced pork taste, I think these are fairly ok. Ahahaha, I seriously can't remember anymore! xD

Sorry, a B, out of pity. I'm sorry, glass noodles. Maybe I'll give you another try and update my review then. xD

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

III. Bean Vermicelli Good TOM YUM KUNG FLAVOUR

Next review! Since I'm not in the mood to do my homework in Chinese yet. >.<

It's about VINA ACECOOK's Bean Vermicelli Good in Tom Yung Kung Flavour! It's vietnamese, therefore all the vietnamese, english, french, whatever language on it...

 (Pretty impressive package design. I like red and gold. The date-stamp kinda ruined it though. =.='')

(Ingriedients in waaay too much foil! When I finished unpacking, the water already finished cooking! Dx)

 (Dumped everything in a bowl... well amost everything because...)

(I spilled the powder, tearing open the sachet. OTL

Looks like the noodle soup has something against my rice-cooker...)

 (Right after pouring the boiling water in.)

 (After 5 minutes I opened the lid and it still looks the same... o.O )

 (Yummy Uzumaki! *O*)

So here is, how it is: 

It's mild hot, BUT everything is hotter when hot! I really can't eat spicy food, so this was really marginal. Not the kind, where you feel your esophagus melting and your mouth-imitating-hell spicy, but the one, were you need a glass of water with the food.

The taste is pretty good, just your typical sour & hot soup.

The dried shrimp in it is sweet, which was... interesting. x3 Uzumaki is awesome, tastes slightly fishy and sweet!!! Where can I get a whole package of that? Need mor Uzumaki in my life! *____*

Noodles are just the right consistency, a little chewy, but edible. Weird onion/herb chunks are weird… still NO idea, what that is suppose to be, because it tastes like nothing. WTF?

All in all, a sweet and hot A!
