immi Black Garlic “Chicken” Ramen – Bold Flavor, Chewier Noodles & High Protein – Vegan, Keto-Friendly Ramen Noodles – Low Carb, Zero Sugar – Healthy Plant-Based Ramen Bowl, 6-Pack

These noodles are absolutely fantastic. The only issue i had was with the texture being a lot different than traditional ramen... think more whole wheat noodle like. But, the flavor is definitely there and there is not a lot of carbs associated with it. As a type 1 diabetic I very much appreciate being able to eat a full bowl of Ramen and have stable blood sugar readings afterwards without much excersise to boot. To me this throws the strange texture out the windows be cause being able to eat a full bowl of Ramen noodles and still have stable blood sugars is a gold mine

I loved these noodles because they were delicious and Keto-friendly (about 5-6 carbs per serving). However, Immi recently (and very quietly) changed the formulation and now there are around 17 NET carbs per serving. I notice no difference in taste. Still good but overpriced at that net carb content, in my opinion.

I was really hesitant to try this. It sounded amazing in theory...but I just wasn't sure. I'm especially leery of things that "take off" on social media as I find opinions on popular items tend to mimic what the majority are saying and I'm usually one of the voices of dissention on insanely popular products. Also, I tend to get bent out of shape about excessively pricey things...like $6 Ramen LOL. But I honestly liked this. Now, I'm not going to claim the experience was like in that ramen restaurant back in Japan (that's just dramatic), but for what it is...I think it is quite good. If you like whole wheat flavors and textures (things where you can candidly "taste" the fiber), I do not think you'd find these noodles very off putting at all. I'm a "don't leave a whole box of Triscuits next to me because they are going down!!!" kind of girl. While my husband is more of a "darling if you want to nibble on wood, we've got some out back and you really needn't pay for the privilege" kind of guy...and these are not quite his jam. Now if you like it smooth...you only eat white bread, white pasta...you're going to HATE this very much so save your $6/bag. But if a fibery texture does not typically bother you, you just might like this. I ate them plain...I did boil for 15 minutes like many have suggested then I just added the broth and ate it and I was fine. If you jazz it up with add-ins and extra flavors, I think it'd be really nice. So while it probably is not for everyone, I think it is worth a try to find out if it's for you, if you're curious! If this price ever comes down, it would be a welcome and frequent addition to my grocery cart.

I bought some, brought in by the promise of "6g net carbs", as I am trying to go low-carb with my diet. Unfortunately, claiming "net carbs" by subtracting the carbs of dietary fiber is still a food industry marketing tactic that has fuzzy science behind it (Look up "net carbs" on the WebMD website). It doesn't matter if the carbs in a serving of IMMI ramen are lower than normal ramen. The calories per serving are the same (310 for IMMI, 320 for regular ramen). So IMMI Ramen is not a license to eat ramen. If you don't exercise and burn off those 310 calories, the effects would be the same as if you ate the regular ramen. I'll give props to IMMI for the attempt. It wasn't bad. But the texture was not the same, and the bite wasn't the same as normal ramen. It was a little gritty compared to regular ramen. For my money, if I'm going to expend my carbs and calorie budget in something, then I want it all. I might as well just enjoy real ramen once in a blue moon, than settle for ramen that doesn't really satisfy my ramen experience and leaves me a little disappointed.

So these noodles are very good. I cook mine longer...about 12 minutes and I add some meat. So far, I've added chicken (I used canned because that's all I had, but any chicken would be fine, rotisserie would be perfect!) and I just made some spicy beef with some chopped up leftover meatloaf!!! It was awesome! Also, the flavor packets aren't very good. I've had 3-4 flavors, and I'm not picky, but they're just not that good. Plus the sodium. I've been using about half of the packet. Here's my formula! 2 cups of water, boil, add noodles - set timer for 12 minutes. After about 2-3 minutes when the noodles are soft, I add a twist or two of salt, some garlic paste and chopped onion. Cook that for another 2-4 minutes. Then I'll add about 1/3 of the meat that I have set aside (chicken, beef, whatever) and cook that until there's about 2 minutes left. Then add the rest of the meat, dusting of black pepper, dusting of garlic powder and mix it around for the final minutes. When the timer goes off, add about 1/2 of the flavor packet along with a drizzle of sesame oil and srirachi to taste (if a kick is desired). It comes out really, REALLY good. Next I'm gonna play with adding some extra veggies along with the onion, garlic and salt. Cabbage, carrots and maybe some chopped broccoli would add some texture and nutrition!! Long story short, these are good and easy to customize but the flavor packets need some work. The sodium is still higher than I'd like. Partner with Dan-O's for some low sodium options!! They aren't cheap but you get what you pay for. For a quick and easy dinner option that your kids will love, these are tasty and fun.
