what's new?

honest-to-god, this smells like a pumpkin spice latte

it smells sweet

this smells…horrifying

it smells like something that should not be consumed by humans. it smells like a jack-o-lantern that’s rotted after four days on the front porch

and it tastes…it tastes…

so, there are good ways to make something pumpkin-flavored, around this time of year. pumpkin spice is fine in a latte or dessert, but for pasta or soup, you go savory - onion, garlic, salt and pepper, and you’ve got yourself a decent meal!

but this…

I don’t know if I can finish eating this. I was barely able to start eating it, because the smell is so nauseating, putting it in my mouth feels wrong.

it’s salty, but also horribly sweet, and tastes strongly of cinnamon and nutmeg. when you take a bite, at first it tastes like nothing - but a few chews in, you can feel the awful sticky-sweet spice residue taking up residence in your mouth.

I hate this!

what malicious focus group told nissin that this was a good idea? how many people tried this product and thought it was good enough to put on shelves?

why does it have sugar, brown sugar, and sucralose in it? wasn’t one enough, you sick bastards?

no. no way.

fuck everything about this

if they wanted it to be a dessert, why did they make it salty! why did they add a small amount of onion and garlic, and turmeric, and paprika!

a dessert ramen, I could have handled! but this was a normal ramen, with sugar and artificial sweetener added!

the absolute worst part

is that the whipped cream actually improves the taste and texture significantly

is it good now? absolutely not

but is it borderline edible?
