Having tried DOLL Hello Kitty noodles and finding edible Hello Kitties inside, I decided to get the TRANSFORMERS one to see what edible Transformers would look like.
The flavour was also unique because this is the only tomato flavour that I know of in the DOLL series.

Well, I must say I was quite disappointed because you don't get any edible Transformers but you get a sticker.
The broth tasted like Weight watchers tomato sauce.
I love trying new things so I was really excited about this Hokkaido ZomRamen because the noodles and broth are blue according to the Hong Kong distributor [Booth 1D-A30 by Red Gold HK 獨家食品香港總經銷] at the 2017 HKTDC Food exhibition.
Inside the pack, there is a sachet of liquid sauce, blue noodles and a leaflet.
It is interesting that the broth sachet is blue liquid and not the usual powder.
Anyway, to cook, you have to use 600ml of water which I thought was too much at first but then the noodles do absorb the water.
After they become soft, you add the blue concentrated broth liquid which I tried and it was evidently quite strong so it comes out right when added to the water.
With its unusual blue appearance it actually tastes like any other ramen.
There was a strong alkaline smell when I was cooking it but you can't taste it when you eat it.
As well as a restaurant foodie, I am addicted to cup noodles and instant noodles.
Came across these noodles by Taiwanese celebrity star ShuQi which are noodles tossed in sauce.
There are two flavours: Sichuan noodles or Scallion noodles.
Tried both and they were fantastic because you get quality noodles that are served in restaurants and not unhealthy typical instant noodles.
They are too easy to cook, boil until the desired softness and toss the noodles with the sauce provided and they are ready to eat.
Personally I preferred the scallion but the Sichuan one is quite spicy yet fragrant.
It is good how the chili seasoning is in a separate sachet.
These are my favourite instant soupless noodles from Taiwan which are popular in Europe.
I always get a stash of them from the Chinese supermarkets in UK.
Years and years ago, the packaging was different and it used to be yellow and green.
I thought they were discontinued when they changed the packaging but recently found out that they are still around but in a white, blue and red design.
The noodles are flat and wavy.
Bean paste:
Broth powder:
I always cook them with the broth powder, then draining it quickly to mix the yummy bean sauce to it.
They taste amazing because the paste in the sachet is spicy with a strong black bean taste to it.
