First, it was the ghost pepper tuna. Which made some pretty good tuna salad. Now it's this thing. My mom was telling me she saw it at the store and asking I've is ever had it, then I saw a post on here the next day. Told her how funny it was to me, a few days later, that it popped up twice in two days when I had no idea it existed. Ended up with this when my parents visited yesterday. Gotta love moms, btw. I'm almost 34 and she still brings me junk food she knows I like. 🤣
Anyway, on to the taste. It's not very spicy at all. So those of you who are sensitive to the "chemical" taste of Buldak may not have that issue with this. The sweet corn part tastes like most East Asian junk food that's sweet corn flavored. Similar to Turtle chips, if you're familiar. There's not much cheese flavor coming through, though. It's hidden behind the mild spice and sweet corn flavor. It's better described as "Spicy Sweet Corn noodles," not mac n' cheese.
I'd give it a solid 6/10. Not my favorite thing, but good enough I'd buy some when I run out.
