Ok so I was gifted a large amount Buldak Carbonara recently from a family member and I need some help making these edible

I tried making it as instructed, only retaining a tiny bit of water and making a thick sauce with both packets. It was disgustingly sweet to the point that I couldn't finish it. Same with just some of the cheese packet, I'm just going to throw them out.

Without the packet the flavor is ok, but the spice is out of control. It's barely edible and burns my mouth for a good 20 minutes after I finish the bowl. Using less sauce makes the noodles bland as hell.

How do I eat this shit? What do I add to cut the spice without watering the whole thing down? Would dropping an egg in with the sauce work?

Why are people so fond of these instant noodle crap? Do you really crave carbonara in instant noodle form?

No, you weren't.

>It was disgustingly sweet to the point that I couldn't finish it

No, it wasn't.

Pro-tip: Use only half of the seasoning packet and then season it with stuff you have in the cabinet.

Honestly I love them. The ramen noodles are the best dry ones on the market imo.
I get them for 8 canuck bucks, it's expensive for ramen but only like double the price of sous-vide udon, which is double regular dry ramen.
And the flavors? They're not all available here...
Curry is mediocre.
Kimchi... it's far from the best ramen I've had of that flavor.
Carbo and cream carbo are good.
I wouldn't buy cheese or 4 cheeses again, but if it was free I'd happily eat it.
2x spicy WILL make your white ass cry. I don't care if you use sriracha like ketchup. You have to be at least a little of a masochist to enjoy pointlessly spicy-hot food but double buldak? Freaky enough that I wouldn't be surprised if that guy enjoyed ballbusting.
Regular buldak is white guy hot, might might a white chick cry tier.
Overall 8/10 but I'm pretty biased.

Yeah the OG is a good one to start with. My store started also selling them seperately, which is why I tried every flavor available. Never had tomato but it'd have to be free for me to try it at all.

This is how I immediately knew this was a troll thread. Buldak carbonara has barely any heat at all, I usually add a lot of chili flake to it to compensate.

I'm pretty much the only Korean I know who didn't circumcise, along with my brother.

It wasn't philosophy or beliefs. I asked dad why I wasn't circumcised and he said he got a free circumcision in the army, so he wanted to save money by skipping the cut when I was a newborn in the hospital. He wanted me to get it in the army. Anyway I didn't. Cheap fuck.

Only go for the 2x if you eat actually spicy food (Mexican, Thai, Indian, etc.) the way natives eat it regularly. It really is very hot. All the others are fine unless you're a pussy. Normal and carbonara are best. The black bean paste ones are okay as well.

I upped my spice game in preparation for my Korea trip and then I hardly got anything spicy there. Food was good though. I agree that adding spiciness to everything just for the sake of it is cringe.

Thanks anon, I've bitten the bullet and purchased the regular (entry-level) one. If they're good I'll explore them in time. I do enjoy a spicy Shin Cup beyond that I don't want pain just for pain's sake. They're being delivered on Sundee morning, whenever I try one I'll rapport back

Just put them in the bin, or eat the noodles themselves. The flavours are absolutely nasty, cheap bottom shelf instant noodles blow them out of the water. Everything either tastes artificially sweetened or like "fake cheese" vomit flavour

It's a viral marketing thread masquerading as "bait" (baiting is actually an effective viral marketing technique especially the way he "backed up" the "outrage" of them "being too spicy woah bros" with "g-go and buy them guys)

This is not TikTok (yet), so he should probably work on his technique, or fuck off, buy an ad, and kill himself.

My only problem with Buldak is it makes my lips fucking sting really bad that it hurts. No idea why, spice is fine in my mouth, lips though? They're fucking burning that it's hard to enjoy when I'm forced to guzzle bottles of water.

I've never had buldak but it honestly sounds vile
I don't really understand the logic behind mixing cheese flavors with ramen, those two things just don't go together for me
Especially considering that every single time I've had anything 'cheese-flavored' out of a packet in the past, it made me gag

The carbonara powder really is disgustingly sweet and artificial tasting. I would just eat them with the dark sauce, and if you find it too spicy then use less sauce or add something to the mix
