As part of the celebrations for the 45th birthday of its ramen noodles, Cup Noodle created a limited-edition flavor called the 'Cup Noodle Big Mystery Meat Festival.'
While small meat cubes are often found in moderation inside instant noodle cups, this special celebratory product from Cup Noodle increases that number to include ten times the usual amount of processed pork cubes that can ordinarily be found in its products.
While many consumers have come to know "mystery meat" as a term to be wary of, the limited-edition noodle flavor form Nissin sold out in just three days. Alongside this offbeat Cup Noodle product, Nissin is also rolling out an all-new look for its other commemorative noodle packages.
