We asked our Mexican dads to taste and rank popular cup noodles! 🍜😁
We asked our Mexican dads to taste test and rank instant ramen from best to worst! We included all sorts of brands for them to try like Nissin Cup Noodles, Maruchan Instant Lunch, Samyang Buldak noodles, Nongshim bowl noodles, Tapatio instant noodles, Nongshim shin black! Have you tried any of these cup ramen before? Do you like to eat instant noodles? Would you try the spicy noddle challenge?

Do you like to eat instant noodles? 🍜 😮
YESSIR! They are just SO good! Specially the spicy ones! 🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️😉😉
huevo means egg
Yes I love them, plus it’s also good for the winter. ❄️
Only when there's nothing else that's interesting to eat
Ofc i eat them who doesnt??
I love the guy who gave all the noodles either an 8-10. That is a real humble guy like there is no need to be prudish when you are eating cheap instant food. If its edible, it gets a high rating.
Definitely shows how much love and respect he has for food 🥹🫶🏻
you when people have opinions about food
That's what we called false advertising
Yes to this! My thought exactly. The guy in blue bitching the whole time ruined the video for me
That is not how you rate food
I think it should be considered a sin that you gave all these dad cup noodles without lime... lime and tapatio on any cup noodle is a game changer
I agree it honestly made me so angry.
nah the way they cooked the korean fire noodles should be a sin
This right here
Yes finally someone gets it
I can’t imagine what that would taste like as an Asian person
The blue shirt dude is hilarious... "see up here it says spicy, and down here it says, I'm lying..." had me in stitches 😂
stiches?
@@KamiTurtle Just a dumb figure of speech. Pay no mind.
but then he pretends tapatio is spicy... cant trust him
@@Chris-hj9dddepends on how much you add it can definitely get spicy
i was looking for this comment 😂
They should have tried the 2x spicy buldak noodles as well. The guy in the glasses who kept saying nothing was hot would have approved of thay one 😂
Right? I kept wondering how you can have a video of the “spiciest” noodles and not offer the spiciest Samyang flavor.
Best ramen out there
I tried those and my lips were burning for two hours 😅
i think there's a 3x but i might be wrong
@@wdnmd6603theres 5x spicy. Bought it at a shop in tokyo. Delicious!
I really want to see a video testing out their spice tolerance! maybe starting easy with takis to a hot pepper or the one chip challenge lol
The new Pepper X
@@southside3119pepper X is delicious I got my plant like towards the beginning of last year and it’s finally been giving crops but the spice made it all worth it
There not Asian so they would die with the one chip challange
Want to see how much red their faces turn 😅
@@joshualangworthy4794Are you saying that only asian people can do the one chip challenge? If so you’re highly mistaken mr know it all
Fun fact, Nongshim noodles taste's completely different in the packet then in the cup. In the cup the spice is really dialed down and noodles are different. More appropriate for on the go noodles
The noodles are always thinner in the cup because it's not actively boiling on a stove, it has to be able to absorb the hot water you put into it before the water gets cold.
they still taste roughly the same but if he thinks tapatio is spicy well thats just silly
pretty sure the issue with this is that they drained all the water out of all of those cups, and with the cup ramen the spices never have time to set right in the cups and so much flavor is lost without the broth.
I agree and it's the same with the fire noodles - the cup version has like half of the spice than the packet version imo.
For the traditional ramen packets I used to drain all the water after boiling and reserve like a tablespoon or so. Then I'd mix up the spice packet in a bowl with the reserved water and then add the noodles and mix it up. Way better this way than as a soup.
The flannel shirt dad brings me so much joy for some reason. he's so humble and nice. Literally the most adorable father on the internet
I think instant noodle in the package is a lot better than the cup ramens. When I cook noodles I would add eggs, Enoki mushroom, tofu, Potsticker and sometimes I add spam.
Shin Black imo is the best Top ramen you can get in the US at most stores. It's obviously more expensive at like ~$2 a package but it's well worth it. If you want to dress it up, you can add exactly what you're already doing with eggs, spam, etc. Personally for me, I like adding 1 slice of bacon that I shred up into ~4-5 pieces, a few slices of onion and fry that up before adding the ramen and finally an egg that I poach. I've seen other "instant ramen" that are "healthier" or more gourmet, etc but they go up to like $5-8 a bowl and at that point it's not going to be better or cheaper than adding bacon, spam, onions, etc to a cheaper but good ramen.
Totally agree!
I feel like the cup noodles don't mess my stomach out quite as bad. The bricks give me diarrhea
agree but cup ramens really is just for convenience tbh
That's the real way to elevate ramen noodles. Way too many people judge the noodles prepared by itself for a quick cheap meal without thinking of doing something special with it.
I would have a beer with all of these guys! They seem down to earth and easy going.
Right
I bet that dude doesn't even drink his beer without adding Tapatio to it first.
@@tornoofo17ever heard of chelada?
I am kazakh and I never met Mexican people, but for some reason I love their vibe, they have some warmness to them you know
How do you feel about the movie "Borat"? Do you feel like it made your country proud? I thought it was a great documentary 😄
@@sydurgraham7760 its the stupidest movie ever, as a Kazakh! Hope this helps
@@superknight9036yeah idk why but the guys trying to rage bait
I like how the one dad said if you come to work with a cup of noodles with a Mexican wife, you’ll be a joke. I also love the Tapito. The chips are just as good
The way I want to hug each of these dads! They're so sweet and fun. This is one of my favorite channels.
I swear arturo would eat oatmeal at breakfast and go "nah man it's missing some Tapatio" 😂
His tastebuds are shot, that's why he can't taste anything else besides his hot sauce.
well, if it doesnt have tapatio it needs tapatio
@RainingDarkChocolate I bet it's not, we just love spicy shi, we love the bitterness and sourness of a good spicy food we can definitely taste the different flavors, but we love our spicy food 😂
@@RainingDarkChocolateNot at all, the spice does not affect the taste buds, it is a matter of enjoying it
On my boat in the navy tapatio is on every table and makes everything so much better. It's like gold underway.
Lol I love “the chile overwhelms all the other flavor” gives it a 9
Someday they should try instant noodles around the world in their different preparations! Mama noodles and Indomie noodles and Maggi noodles are all top tier and frankly I think would be closer to their palates but also are so different they might habe a hard time deciding about them lol the Duck boodles Mama has are amazing!
Yeah they completely left out a lot of SE Asian instant noodles. It’s MAMA and IndoMie for me! I love NeoGuri Spicy Seafood if I had to pick my fav Korean one.
I'm starting to think these guys might be fans of Tapatio.
you aren't mexican if you don't like tapatio! lol
@@eyreyereye The funniest thing is that here in Mexico there is no Tapatío sauce. I think the equivalent would be Valentina.
Love all the papas! Wholesome, funny content that helps bring a little sunshine in these crazy times ❤️
It's funny because in México we do not eat Tapatio, this seemed just like a big ad. In Mexico, we usually eat Maruchan, and we add lime with either Valentina or Huichol, but in recent years we are all about the Korean noddles, we have them in the convenience stores and are really popular (Shin ramen, buldak and Ottogi) Tapatio who??
Pues yo si compro tapatío aquí en México, las demás salsas ni pican alv
Tapatio isn’t even spicy, just vinegar like Tabasco. Valentina is much better.
Those Nong Shim red/black cup noodles I personally think have an awesome flavor to the broth compared to other instant noodle brands, also its spicier than the rest IMO.
@@davidhan9979Quente?
I agree the shim ramyun noodles have amazing flavor and a good amount of heat, but buldak noodles takes it for spiciest out of these. Also they didn’t include the buldak x2 spicy which the others wouldn’t even compare
@@mikes978i’ve never seen those in the US unfortunately
@@lilacfields Not sure where in the US you’re from, but check your Asian grocery stores (like h-mart or any local ones in your area), most of the ones here on the east coast have it. I’m from Massachusetts. Amazon has it as well, the 2X spicy is the red package.
In my area, Target, Walmart, or even Albertsons sell these.
Love the dad with the blue shirt, super thoughtful with his comments
OUR FAVORITE DAD HAS RETURNED! ALL HAIL THE CHONKY KING!
they all chonk
It goes to show that they're well-fed and loved
@@stepdad1391loo
@@stepdad1391lol
It means that they are married.
When one of the dads commented about being ashamed of bringing cup noodles to work I was like it’s normal in Japan. 😂 But the noodles in Japan are legit so I don’t blame him for being ashamed. 😂
Yeah, Japanese cup noodles tend to be a bit more bold. And the cup yakisoba? Those are legit fire.
What do you mean the noodles in Japan are legit? You obviously have no friggin idea what you are talking about. These are the same brands they eat all day everyday in where? You guessed it.....Japan. weird I know. Before you go off trying rebut, i will tell you, my brother lives in Japan and has for 20 years. I made the comment to him one time about the Ramen noodles we have in the states are probably nowhere near as good as the ones he gets in Japan. He looked at me funny and said the ones here are absolutely ramen noodles and the exact same they get in Japan.
@@refermanjonnot true at all…these are just the brands that are well known to Americans just like most Koreans don’t eat buldak noodles. There are other popular brands and flavors that they eat.
@@bertram5806 Koreans do eat buldak noodles but they've definitely been more popularized on TikTok. I agree with you though on everything else the noodles here in America are completely different than actual ASIAN noodles in ASIA.
@@refermanjon Any Asian can tell you the noodles here in America are not as good as real authentic noodles.
For any instant noodles that have those little dried shrimps in them... Take the shrimps out and put them in a coffee grinder or something similar and turn them into a fine powder and add it back. They dissolve into the broth when you add the water and completely transform the broth. It's a game changer.
😂
Those fire noodles are so spicy but have so much flavor! So much better with a gooey boiled egg and a little melted mozz cheese!
that sounds amazing 🤤🤤🤤
@@PapahChannelI eat spicy Ramon with egg cheese and some fries very hot ones it good
@@PapahChannelnoodles
Sounds like a heart attack
Their not spicy
Have them try the spicier noodles all dressed up to see what they think!! There’s so many different types and spice levels of noodles out there!!
Let’s do the hot ones line up, I wanna see them get spiced out.
I absolutely adore watching the dads, they are so wholesome and nice. Dont get me wrong the mamás are great but they are more funny, these are just cute and adorbs
Love papah, spice and ramen! Perfect combo!😊😊😊😊😊
These Dads are hilarious 😂❤
Vicente was missed 🥰 it's good that you returned ❤
These guys are the best, love the videos!! 😊
They needed the shin black Ramen those are spicier they're also missing the Sriracha Ramen those are delicious the lobster is my personal fave.
they are not any spicier just different ingredients but if they are using tapito for spice its not that spicy anyway.
Sriracha ramen goes hard bro.
The nongshim hot & spicy noodles are my absolute favorite, i always stock up on them 🤣 & the Tapatio extra spicy whenever i’m really dying for some heat , the buldak is way too much where it’s unenjoyable for me 🥲
I live in Canada and am Native, I have to say it's always been refreshing to see how globally noodles can be enjoyed anywhere and we really love noodles man I don't think i've ever been to someones house who literally hasn't had a pack or cup laying around
I like all these channels showing people trying foods. Up voted & subscribed!
What an excellent REVIEW 👏 the guy 👦 who outs in more spice 🙈❤️🔥!! I agree 💯 noodles in the cup 🥤 are not the same BUT are good for on the go!! Add some cilantro and lime to dile down the heat if needed 😊
I like mine with valentina instead of tapatio
Also a really great hot sauce!
Tapatio is such a versatile sauce. I love it in tomato soup /drool
I've been addicted to Tapatio ever since the tapatio chip guy and I now understand the REQUIREMENT to put it on everything haha
You have to buy the packets of nong-shim ramen. WAY better than the crap in the cup.
A little hack for anyone watching and reading these comments. Go to wherever they sell the tapatio noodles. Get the extra spicy one, and get two limes. Make it, squeeze the like juice in after. Amazing amazing meal
Looks like someone is ready for the 2x fire noodle challenge 🤣
I love all their reactions!! Spice tolerance next!
Arturo really loves Tapatio. "The presentation is awesome with Tapatio on there I don't know if that his name" 😂 Tapatio needs to give him a yr supply of Tapatio
He already killed that bottle in one episode lol he’s gonna need more than that 🤣
Keep these videos going I love them🇲🇽viva Mexico💚❤️
Lmao these dad's are so me 🤣 if it ain't spicy enough I'm breaking out the hot sauce I need to feel something man
First cup of Maruchan noodles is my favorite and you have to add the tapitio!!
you need to give him all the buldak flavors and the 2x flavor and with the real ramen packs
I love these dads
Ayo😳
I find this so relatable. Most of my foods aren't spicy enough so I add Tapatío.
Lmao 🤣🤣🤣I so remember that ramen noodle challenge with Xiotchi 😂😂😂
6:52 We LOVE this one!
I'd love to see them try some Australian snacks
“And then right here, I’m lying” lmaooo this has me dead
Mexican here, where I live we eat Maruchan with salsa Valentina and lemon, even if it already have habanero and lemon flavor... and we use a lot of salsa Valentina, yellow label if you just wanna have a good meal or black if you want it a little spicey. Also, some people adds cueritos or snacks like Doritos... But there's also the "Sopa Marrana", it has different names depending the region, it is a Maruchan with suadero, chopped coriander and onion, taqueria's red sauce and some tortillas to make some tacos.
omfg I loved Maruchan! for the past few days I was ill (I'm better now) and I had this a lot and I'd go hard the shrimp flavor! 😋
Honestly, it hitttttssssss!
VICANTE YESSSSSSSSSSS HES BACK
The blue shirt guy showed me. 😭 I love the tapatio noodles and the shin noodles, they are spice at least to me but they are my favorite 😂 I never have to add any hot sauce
The fire wok noodles are the only ones I've found that actually have any heat and not just a little spice. The shrimp and chicken one especially are pretty hot
I tested the Tapatio noodles. I can see why it appeals more to a Mexican palette bc in addition to it being about as spicy as the average Korean ones, it's also got a bit of acidity/tartness to it. But tbh, I would not eat it bc of the texture of the noodle. It was never bouncy. It was just kind of soggy and floury from the get go. If tapatio can fix their noodles, I think it would be a lot more popular. I'll just keep adding lemon juice to the korean ones.
It's not popular in Mexico, we love Maruchan and Korean brands, Tapatio who?
I love how these guys rate things super high at the end… 8, 9, 10…. But while eating it they are like “ehh it’s alright…”
I love this channel so much
have'em try instant dry noodles like Mie Goreng and Pancit Canton!
Have them eat some REAL HOT FOOD. Ghost Pepper, Carolina Reaper, One Chip Challenge. Mexican Dads must be able to handle that amount of heat.
That’s not what Mexican food is about. Heat has to also provide flavor. You can’t just have the pure hotness. They’re not gonna like it if you give them that test.
i really like japanese and thai nissin cup noodles compared to american ones. so much more flavour.
the man with the mustache is so pure lol
I like the way the one guy thinks “it’s a quick way to get rid of desperate hunger”
When I saw the Buldak noodles I started drooling😂 I love them❤ I put Buldak sauce on most my meals. I do cook mostly korean and japanese tobe fair so they go well. Also Buldak sauce and mayo for dipping fries in… Heavenly
Yep i love to add the buldak sauce to classic cup o noodles. It's so bland and inedible without it.
Wait.. you can buy the spicy buldak sauce by itself?
@@iliketurtles508 yes! I buy it from Amazon in the US.
How can you properly rate something if you change the flavor with additional seasonings?
Pho? Too bland! Add tapatio! :D
The best ting is that the dads are so funny😂😂
I agree, I love putting Lime (Philippine Lime to be exact) on my Noodles, or any dish with soup, and also put more chillis on them because most instant Noods don't pack enough punch
So surprised shin was rated below some of the others. Yes it's not spicy, buts the best easily available instant ramen by a country mile imo. Add the chili garlic paste yourself and my God.
Prob cuz they would rather just drink tapatio
Delicious food you got there! I wish I can eat them…
Dad in the blue shirt has the authoritative taste. His ratings are exactly on point. I would watch a show of him just recommending random stuff to me. Like here's the best toilet paper for these reasons, and this is the best coffee because reasons.
Should have tried the Shin black ramen. I add a little chili powder and some beef consommé. So good!!
Try colombian food and or desserts! 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
What sort of Colombian food would you suggest they try?😮
@@PapahChannelbandeja paisa, buñuelos, ajuliaco, arroz con pollo, tres leches, agua panela, refajo.
Mexican dads try russian food or slavic food
Я понятия не имею, что говорю, я пользуюсь переводчиком.
living in a mexican household we get about a box of 12 atleast every 1-2 months. Its definitely something that gets rid of hunger and sure is good than other option for something that cost two quarters def a ten and better than those frozen microwavables
5:33 My favorite ramen of the lot! Specially since i LOVE tapatio hor sauce! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Make them try Korean Corn dogs like you did with mamah! They look so good 💦
Dude with the blue shirt definitely watches cooking shows they way he's describing them...lol
yall should have included the 2x spicy ramen too!!
Ya’ll need to do the ghost one! I want to see their faces!🤣
Try this Heat up the water with some cilantro, thinly sliced red onion, a small piece of ginger, some diced garlic and one jalapeño with the end cut off. Once the water is boiling add the noodles and cook as directed. Right before it’s done cooking drop 2 eggs and cover it for about 2 min while the egg cooks like a pouch egg.
man, instant noodles especially the sea food ones with old bay seasoning "Chef's Kiss"
My dad would be so perfect for this 😭 wish we lived just a little closer!
Imma need y’all to cook those noodles a lil longer 😂
They eat the fire noodle like it's nothing, hats off to Mexican dads.
Don Tiberio watered down a bit the "Sopa Huevona" translation, it translates to "Lazy Ass Soup" hahahaha
ALL OF THEM BESIDES THE BULDAK SPICY NOODLES WERE MISSING THE BROTH! THEY NEED THE BROTH!!! BEST PART
Try different ice creams 🙌🏼 like the sweats one, honey bun, Swiss roll flavors
I don’t even know the dad wearing the blue shirt but I love him
5:34 I tried the Tapatio ramen a couple months ago, and it's become a staple for quick work lunches. That shit has absolutely NO business being as good as it is for being, like, a dollar per (smaller sized) cup.
When shins motto says it can make a grown man cry, it ain't lying.
I always make sure to have Tapatio on deck, especially for instant noodles
The spiciest cup noodle I've ever had was mamee ghost pepper noodle. I forgot which variant it was, but I was struggling a lot to finish a small cup. I like spicy stuffs but that one just felt so painful on my mouth and throat. If you can get one in your area, do give it a try 😇👍
I put some black bottle Valentino in my Nong shim bowls after I drain out 80% of the soup. Mmmm so delicious
7:32 "im lying" LMAOO
- The ear-to-ear grin that jumped from the screen to my face...
