Local grocery sells them for 28 cents each. Am I missing something here?** A: IKR! I almost choked when I saw the price. I love the Cheddar Cheese flavor and Walmart sells them for 37¢ each (so $4.44/case of 12). The only aggravation is that online you can only add 3 into your basket but you can go into the store and buy every damn one they have on the shelf...no limit! My problem is I hate going into Walmart because I always wind up tossing stuff in the basket that I didn't intend to buy. **Q: why is it overpriced?** A: i bought it during the beginning of pandemic and all grocery prices in Amazon shoot up. The seller took advantage of the situation. **Q: not pictured in Maruchan product catalog anymore. Out of stock in my area. Say it isn't so** A: Thank you for contacting Affordable Buy. If you are asking if we have this product, yes we do. We can ship it right away. **Q: These are $.78 at local grocery that starts with W....why are they allowed to sell for more than $2?** A: They dont charge $2 for them. If you take the asking price and devide by how many are in the case you get how much a piece they are. In the store that is $.78 that price is for each cup of noodles. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***T on 6 May 2025* I think the beef one tastes better ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by A***. on 16 March 2026* Great to have especially for an afternoon instant noodle lunch.
