    Dupe on the $4.50 at Woolies

    They discount this down to $5 every month or 2.

    I loved this stuff untill a few years back they changed the recipe, now I grab and love me Paldo hot n spicy.

    • ShinK0 on 04/09/2023 - 19:40

      I was wondering this recently and just thought it might just be my memory because the last time I ate it was 10 years ago.

        No they definitely changed the ingredients and recipe a few years back, I had both packets/versions at the same time and the newer version didn't taste anywhere as good as the other older packets I had, didn't like the new version but Thank You Paldo, who also changed their recipe but is still awesome.

        • 0jay on 04/09/2023 - 19:55

          Where do you buy Paldo?

            @0jay: Asian grocery stores, many stock it, Paldo Hot and Spicy is my replacement to Nong Shim,
            Also Paldo Dosirac Beef is bloody nice too.

            Paldo is also a Sth Korean brand.

        • Bread Pitt on 05/09/2023 - 07:02

          They probably moved the original recipe to the premium Shin Ramyun Black packet. It's more expensive but you should give it a go if you get the chance to try it. Same thing but with better ingredients probably like it used to be.

          • G-rig on 05/09/2023 - 07:12

            @Bread Pitt: Black is less spicy, I don't see how it's worth the extra cost (and it's a 4 pack).
            I think Koreans prefer red and it's what they're used to, black bit too different and less popular.

            • Bread Pitt on 05/09/2023 - 08:01

              @G-rig: Is it closer to the original flavour though?

              • G-rig on 05/09/2023 - 08:06

                @Bread Pitt: Plenty of discussions on Reddit.
                Red is fine and no point getting black.
                Defeats the purpose of a cheap comfort meal.

                @Bread Pitt: Shin black is supposed to give the 'bone broth' taste. Less spicy. Not close to the original red.

      • G-rig on 04/09/2023 - 19:47

        The used to have made in china Shin ramen as well, those weren't very good compared to made in Korea.

        • aec on 04/09/2023 - 20:41

          No, ironically, the Made in China version tastes better than the made in korea version. and the one in the pack tastes way better than the one in the bowl.

          btw, i didnt neg you.

          • G-rig on 04/09/2023 - 21:08

            @aec: All good, I think the Chinese ones tasted more artificial and weak, good thing haven't seen them much at all for years.

            Anyway should only be a very occasional food, sodium is through the roof.

          • Fobsessive on 04/09/2023 - 23:27

            @illusion99: Dry pasta. I have it with canned pink salmon, no sauce.

            Tinned pre-cooked pasta shall never be spoken of.

          False, spaghetti was 65c/500g @ WW/Coles or 50c/500g @ Reject Shop 2 years ago,
          now 90c/500g @ WW/Coles

          High energy price = everything is more expensive.

          Just buy your own dry noodles, more of a fair comparison and healthier than instant noodles.

    Get Jin ramen instead. I think it tastes better and it's also on special.

    • HopSkipJumpFallSplat on 04/09/2023 - 21:22

      I lost track of Kimchi, got several brands of Kimchi here and none of them are what I was after, they all taste great tho, just wanted the ones with actual real hydrated kimchi satchels in them, not kimchi flavoured.

      Edit.
      Yes got both Nong Shim and Paldo Kimchi, neither are what I'm looking for.

      • jabbawocky on 04/09/2023 - 22:16

        To me, this is the best tasting Kimchi noodles out there

      • azurell on 05/09/2023 - 08:22

        Omori kimchi stew ramen might be what you're after.

      • G-rig on 07/09/2023 - 05:00

        What are you looking for lol..

        Just go to Korean supermarket and get some real kimchi, the ones that are made fresh here not imported. Not very cheap these days, you could make your own fairly easily.

    • abctoz on 06/09/2023 - 21:18

      I used to have this Korean flatmate, skinny as hell, all he would eat was ramen and kimchi, he was smart tho he bought 1kg kimchi bottles

    I too like the Jin noodles better - they don’t get too soft if you overcook or leave it in the pot for too long. But Jin hasn’t gone on sale for a long time

    Did they change the sachet inside or what? I swear is used to be this really hot and spicy paste now it's a crappy powder.
