The Buldak Ramen Flavor That Leads To Way More Pain Than Pleasure
BY ANDY SAHADEO
If you’re a fan of spicy foods, you have a plethora of options when it comes to ramen, but if you eat the 2x Spicy Buldak ramen, you’ll likely feel more pain than pleasure.
While the ramen looks normal at first, its so-called "flavor" packet looks like black sludge, and at first taste, you’ll notice spice is the only flavor on offer.
In a review, Tasting Table writer Julia Duda ranked the 2x Spicy flavor last of 11 Buldak ramen options, saying "spice is the only flavor at play," overpowering even the noodles.
While some might enjoy the overpowering heat, Buldak also offers more flavorful options like Curry ramen full of spices (but not spicy) or the creamy, savory Quatro Cheese.
