Are you talking about Cup o' Noodles when you talk about bowls? Cause the bowl of noodles like Nissin Donbei are higher quality fare than the square packages:

Never tried that version. I had a Japanese bowl once but it couldn't compare to a Korean bowl and tried too hard to taste like real ramen from a Japanese noodle shop. When it comes to bowls, this one's my personal fav:
But sometimes I want thicker noodles than what the bowl stuff offers so I'll go out of my way to actually cook.
I've had those before, it's Korean right? I didn't like how the noodles didn't absorb the soup flavoring, and it was a different type of noodle, not typical ramen or soba. Might have been like udon. They have a spicy variety that's really good too.

Korean instant noodles are very popular nowadays, but I'd still prefer the Japanese ones. As a kid, I used to eat instant noodles "dry". I break the uncooked noodles into bite sized chunks, and add in the flavouring and shake the whole packet. Friggin' salty but I used to like it. God knows how much damage I took back then.......
I'm actually waiting for my nissin instant XO sauce seafood flavour noodles to be ready while I type this.

I must try this Nissin instant now... must start looking for it. They have to sell it somewhere in New York.
Oh, and eating dry noodles from the package was a favorite past time of mine as wellSometimes better than potato chips!
dry noodles... god they taste good.

Do they have Japanese sections in the supermarkets in the US? Over here, we have entire sections dedicated to Japanese food and other products. Pricey, but at least it's as authentic as it can get.

Even better, I know of a Japanese supermarket (Jasmart) in Manhattan. Although it'd be sweet if I could find a Japanese store somewhere closer to home.
I love that flavor. I used to eat the bag version of that all the time.
