Members SuperBacon Posted January 23, 2023 Members Posted January 23, 2023 My mate found these in a shop local to him and knows I love noodles so much he took a pic for me. @Merzbow or any of you other noodle lovers, have you tried these? They sound evil. He's sending me some.
Merzbow Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Ah yeah, the most blatant rip-off ever by Paldo there. They're good iirc but not as great as the original Buldak from Samyang.

Cousin Jim Bob Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Paldo are pretty good. They are South Korean like the companies they rip off and taste solid. Like a good Aldi/Lidl style version of a brand name.
Paid Members chokeout Posted January 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted January 23, 2023 Where are they heat-wise on the buldak scale?
Merzbow Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Pretty similar, maybe between the normal and X2 version if I remember correctly. Nongshim also made a super spicy version of their classic to combat the Buldak, they're not really comparable aside from the heat though.

Merzbow Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Aye, I still see them in my local Korean supermarket.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted January 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted January 23, 2023 I saw the most ridiculous, poncy, north London crisps in a shop recently. I mean, who comes up with these flavours? What sort of hipster sits there and thinks "That's what people want"? Gentrification at its worst. (They were quite nice.)
Merzbow Posted January 23, 2023 Posted January 23, 2023 Chinese Lays are like that but with even wilder flavours, I'd definitely recommend looking out for them.
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted January 23, 2023 Paid Members Posted January 23, 2023 There is no way I'm googling "Chinese Lays"... Again.
