immi Ramen Variety Pack – Bold Flavors, Better Noodles – High Protein, Low Carb, Plant Based – Spicy Beef, Black Garlic Chicken, Tom Yum Shrimp – Keto & Plant-Based Comfort Food

I made IMMI ramen chicken/black sesame for dinner yesterday and will contribute the following comments. Read the directions on the package. Have green scallions, hard boiled egg, shrimp, mushrooms, or another garnish or two ready to add to it. Eaten plain, the taste is good, but definitely is different from grocery store ramen. It is very bland and really takes on the flavors of whatever you add to it in the way of garnishes. It is not salty. It tastes like "whole food" or "food with substance". I ate half of mine al dente, the rest cooked until it softened. I will buy it again because of the nutritional benefits, but I will be better prepared next time I cook it. Read the suggested condiments. This product has potential and, hopefully, will be available at a lower price so that more people can take advantage of the nutrition it affords those who eat it. It would be difficult for elderly people to afford and even for the college students who are notorious for eating ramen as a penny pinching measure. Try it. Visit the Immi Website and you will get a personal video email from one of the founders. Immi has a place in healthy eating.

Okay. The FB ads got me on this one. I kept seeing this stuff over and over. I read a lot of reviews. The cost stopped me more than once and then I finally gave in. I got the variety pack. 2 Spicy Beef, 2 Tom Yum Shrimp, and 2 Black Garlic Chicken. The noodles themselves are as close to actual Ramen as possible without being ramen. They don't have much of a flavor themselves and do take a little longer than normal ramen to absorb the flavors of the broth but the texture is good with both stovetop and microwave methods. There's no need to be critical here. It's a healthy noodle. My inner-carb-lover is satisfied and they are super filling portions that keep you full. Now for the flavorsBeef: It's good. Imagine a slightly muted version of regular beef flavored ramen. I'm okay with it. It's less sodium. It's a good flavor, just not strong.Black garlic chicken: For sure my favorite of the three. Great flavor. Same as above as far as being kind of muted flavor but it's not in a bad way. I do recommend letting the noodles sit for a bit in the broth before diving in. You can always add in your own toppings for more flavor, which I did my second go around but my review is for the product on it's own.Tom Yum Shrimp: It's a solid no for me. This one honestly tasted like how I imagine cleaning products taste. It's weird and I do usually like shrimp-flavored things.Conclusion: Overall I'm not mad about the purchase. It was good. If you are keto and miss ramen, this will hit for you. For me, it's way too expensive for what it is. There are many positive elements about this when looking at it as a meal because it is healthy. Unfortunately, the cost will keep me from buying it in the future. It's worth maybe $4 a package and I'd consider at that price for a regular lunch item but definitely not $6.50.

So I teeter tottered on giving this a 4 or 5 star rating. I found this ramen to be enjoyable. Is this exactly like regular ramen? No. Is it close enough to satisfy the ramen craving? Absolutely! The noodles were soft enough for me a 5 min of boiling. The texture is not identical to traditional ramen and it’s unrealistic to think it would be. That said, it’s far better than any other ramen noodle substitute I’ve tried. The flavor of the broth is really good, doesn’t just taste like bullion powder overloaded with salt. When I prepared for the first time, I didn’t add any mix-ins like an egg, meat, or veggies because I wanted to taste the ramen as-is. I can’t wait to dress it up a bit the next time I make it! I would absolutely purchase again but not as often as I would actually like. The price point is just a bit too high. I wish this company would go on the shark tank tv show and get some investors to help bring the price down haha!

I saw an ad for these some time ago and wanted to buy some (direct) but in addition to the 39$ price tag they were 25$ shipping to Alaska. I decided no thanks so when I saw them on Amazon with free prime shipping I was excited!That is until I tasted them. I tried the Tom yum tonite for dinner and I have to say it was the blandest ramen I have ever had, even tho i added a nice handful of toppings. The broth was warm water vaguely flavored with chili and wayyy lower salt than any self respecting instant ramen should be. I think if I used half the recommended water, it might taste better. To make it edible I added a great deal of Tom Yum paste and some salt. Boatload of salt.In terms of the texture of the noodles, I did have reasonably low expectations having eaten many many low-carb noodles. These were about what I expected, mediocre. Chewy in the wrong way, but you know those of us who are used to crappy low-carb noodles, will be not surprised by them. They definitely fill you up, lots of fiber, so that’s good. However, since I didn’t feel satisfied, I wanted something else to eat to scratch the itch for flavor.I’m going to stick with my high protein, but not as low carb, ramen for now, They are cheaper, more flavorful, and the texture of the noodles are better. These are definitely not worth the price tag of over six dollars per serving.
