Hey noodle lovers! 🎉
Ever wonder if fancy noodles are worth the big bucks? We did too! So we spent $70 for this Momofuku noodles review to see if they're really that great.
👨‍🍳 Who Makes These Noodles?
A-Sha and Momofuku!
💸 Why $70?
You can only get all five flavors from their website. That's why we spent $70. Amazon only has three flavors.
🍜 What Flavors Did We Try?
We cooked up five flavors: Soy Scallion, Spicy Soy, Sweet Soy, Spicy Chili, and Tingly Spicy. Yum!
🔥 Spicy or Not?
Some were spicy but not too hot. Others were really spicy!
👍 Our Ratings
We give scores to each flavor. Some got 5 out of 5!
🤔 Is It Worth It?
Watch the video to find out if these noodles are worth the price.
👇 Where to Buy
We got ours from the Momofuku website. That's the only place to get all the flavors.
So, are these noodles a hit or a miss? Click play to find out! 🎬

The chili crunch shenanigans revealed them to be quite the bullies so no to momofuku for me.

@brtecson Месяц назад

I'm down with the non-momofuku a-sha noods.. also trader joe has noods that are made by a-sha.

@anon6116 2 месяца назад

I just happened to find them in the market, yes had to buy. Worth it. If you want you can add anything you like or just alone. Good.

@karateman302 7 месяцев назад

The Momofuku Chili Crunch goes great with the noodles if you want to bump up the spice and add some varied texture to it.

@talex668 4 месяца назад

Screw Momofuku and it's chili crisp. They are trying to make it so no one else can use that term.

@karthik3685 5 месяцев назад

A-sha noodles on their own are great. The hainan style noodles with onion, original soy and spicy chilli sauce are all already pretty awesome. They are also much cheaper - $6.98 for a pack of 5.

@MrMrsK21 11 месяцев назад

Always see these momofuku noodles in stores but could never pull the trigger just cause we could never justify that price. But now we may have to give them a try

@PeterLisaKim 11 месяцев назад

They're for sure top tier out of the quick-prep noodle category even if they do cost more 😅 Definitely think you guys would like it though!

@RichardLasquite 11 месяцев назад

Not sure why these are so crazy priced now. They used to be $1 more per 5pk than the equivalent A-Sha 5pk. Now it's double the price. The sauces are slightly different, but I'd recommend just getting the A-Sha noodles and tweaking the sauce to your liking.

@PeterLisaKim 11 месяцев назад

Definitely a great recommendation! We've found the A-Sha ones at our local Grocery Outlet from time to time and love those as well.

@eileengreenspan730 8 месяцев назад

So 1 bag (@ $13.) has 6 blocks/portions of noodles AND 6 separate sauce packets?

@noahm2259 3 месяца назад

Buy any dried noodle and source in Chinatown. It will tastes 5x better at fractional price

@scottcarroll1882 2 месяца назад

I’ve tried a lot of packaged noodles and I have to say these are so easy to prepare and very tasty! $2.50 a pop but I think the ease of preparation is key. Can’t go wrong with these.

I'm addicted to the soy scallion flavor. I can't eat the cheap stuff anymore, I don't like the texture and it's unhealthy. These let me get my noodle fix without the guilt 🍜 Oh and why do Italians love pasta so much?

@PeterLisaKim 3 месяца назад

These definitely have a better texture and feels like restaurant quality! You have fancy taste 😉 We love pasta too!! Because carbs! lol 😂

@cynrok 2 месяца назад

the noodles themselves are very good but the seasoning packs are soooo bland and in some cases even bad-tasting. with a lot of doctoring they're good but it's not worth spending so much just for noodles that you have to add a lot of stuff to in order to make them enjoyable. i'd just buy plain noodles at the asian market for a fraction of the price.

@ot7stan207 10 месяцев назад

well yea asians like noodles, we created them. its like asking Italians why they eat pasta

@miamiwax5504 3 месяца назад

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Z_j60iduHmg.htmlsi=yy1OC_d7yZdiMzZt It was a part of a round-up of chili oils/chili crisps. You can find Momofuku on the 3rd chapter!

@David-y8m9t Месяц назад

70$ for something thats worth no more than 5$. What a joke.

@Combat_Medic 10 месяцев назад

I have tried these before at Target, so I splurged and bought 6 packs. The package was lost for a month and their customer service team literally did nothing to help. They just kept sending the same generic email over and over saying the package wasn’t lost, usps just wasn’t updating their shipment tracking. For a month? Yeah right. I’ll never buy from this company again, and this is the first time I have said that in 38 years of life.

@PeterLisaKim 10 месяцев назад

Hi! I’ve had a similar issue with USPS. They “delivered” my package but when I asked for proof of delivery they said they would investigate and nothing happened. They couldn’t find my package. Basically bought something and received nothing. I was so annoyed. So it’s not Momofuku’s fault, most likely USPS. 😞

@eileengreenspan730 8 месяцев назад

Are they cheaper at target?

@dhsauno 11 месяцев назад

I bought the Tingly Chili and I thought they were terrible. The flavor was *so* artificial.

@PeterLisaKim 11 месяцев назад

That's unfortunate! Would you give the noodles a try on its own with a different sauce?

@Combat_Medic 10 месяцев назад

Crazy. These are some of the least artificial noodles out there.

I hope everyone knows u can make really good noodles at home without buying these pre made stuff. just buy the egg noodles dried n cook as usual and add sauce

@abick8725 9 месяцев назад

Well said. Plus, if you pay at least some attention to prices, you can make a lot more, better quality for a fraction of the price. When I saw they paid $70 for 5 bags of noodles, all I could do was laugh. Sorry, but a VERY large portion of that cost is simply paying for the Momofoku name. I wasn’t Momofoku born yesterday!😂

Most people don't have time or going to invest that kind of time to make noodles when this is so much more convenient. People can make homemade pasta which I do for special occasions but not on a weekly basis.

@dannyhoward3437 3 месяца назад

Asking why Asians love noodles isn’t racist. It’s a question. Many Asian people love noodles. There is a reason for that. Explaining our culture to others and removing mystery actually reduces the opportunity for racism.
