GoGo noodles

Woke up late Saturday morning and wanted something quick so I grabbed these noodles because it didn’t require a lot of effort or cooking time. When I emptied the seasoning packet I noticed the huge chunks of MSG. I smelled the bamboo as soon as I poured the hot water over the noodles and thought to myself that this flavor is going to be awful. Bamboo is not my favorite but I’ve started to acquire the taste for it as my palette has matured. The bean thread noodles were thicker and chewier than other noodles. The bamboo flavor was not as strong as it smelled. There are bits of artificial pork and lots of dehydrated green onions. I had that MSG tingle on my tongue when I was done with the soup. mmm mmm em es geeee.

I was very curious to taste these noodles and wondered how the flavor of bun rieu would translate to instant form.

Very interesting to find that there were 4 seasoning packets. Soup base, fried garlic, dehydrated veggies and the big one is the oil and bits of crab meat (i think).

Can you see the lumps of crab meat?

I had some cabbage and half a tomato in the crisper. I would say that this flavor was not as delicious as the picture appears. It tastes nothing like fresh Bun Rieu, which is a Vietnamese tomato crab noodle soup. The dominant flavor of this soup was sour with a hint of shrimp. Didn’t taste like crab at all.
