Nissin Cup Noodle Garlic Cheese Fondue Flavor

In Japan’s market, Nissin occasionally introduces a unique flavor of Cup Noodle combined with something appealing that you wouldn’t see in the actual ramen bowl.

Chances are you haven’t heard of instant ramen using matcha green tea powder, but the maker actually did it in the past.

And the unexpected Cup Noodle combo Nissin unveiled this time is with Cheese Fondue.

This product has no extra packet; the soup base powder is mixed in with the dried noodle block.

In the cup, there are generous amounts of garnishes made up of bits of cabbage, fried potatoes, cubes of mock cheese processed from lard, and carrots.

The cooking of this cup noodle is the same as other regular flavors, very straightforward;

Pour boiling water until it reaches the line indicated inside the cup, close the lid, and let the noodles steep for 3 minutes. That’s it.
