I was deeply disappointed with this one. I had to microwave it for 4 minutes instead of the instructed 2 minutes. Although I was happy with the thickness of the noodles, the inside of the noodles still tasted uncooked. There wasn't much flavor overall- despite the added sauce and ingredients.

Obviously, a restaurant-made bowl would be better. But I don't have much time to visit one- hence why I've been sampling various store-bought options.

I would never trust any asian frood from an asian named "annie"... lesson learned! :)

I may try an "Annie Chun" brand again, but not that same bowl.

@lucifargundam This is also made by a Korean manufacturer, and is a little different from Japanese udon. But the frozen instant udon is closer to the real thing. Udon has a long history and is very simple, so many people are particular about the subtleties.
