Limited Edition Snack Spotlight :: PANAPP ぶどうの女王 (Grape Queen)

This flavour of Panapp is called "Grape Queen". So in Japan you've got two types of grapes. Purple grapes and muscat grapes are the two main types. Most of what I would call green grapes they call muscat grapes.

I saw this panapp at the store. Normally they're under 100 yen but this one was 150 yen. Wow! An extra 50 yen!

I adore Panapp ice cream cups. They're soft and have a really strong fruity flavour. This one was no exception. The grape flavour was really sweet and slightly tangy. It melted really nicely on the tongue as well. I absolutely enjoyed this treat.

A single cup of this has a bit more than the regular cups. It has 206 calories, 28 g of carbs, 9 g of fat, 3 g of protein and 100 mg of sodium.

Ramen Reviews :: Maru-Chan Shoyu Ramen

Another look at some Maru-Chan ramen. This time the Shoyu (soy sauce) flavour. I enjoy shoyu ramen because it's got a less oily texture in comparison to tonkatsu ramen. This was no exception to that rule. It was definitely less oily than the previous ramens. It had a nice soy flavour to it. The noodles were thicker and I enjoyed their firm texture. They had a nice chewiness to them. I dolled up my bowl of ramen with a hardboiled egg, boy choi, carrots and bean sprouts. I split the noodles and broth in half to make two meals from it as I typically do. One package is a bit lower in calories than the previous ones. A package is 340 calories, 66g of carbohydrates, 4g of fat, 10g of protein and 2,300 mg of sodium. Instant ramen is always going to be high in sodium which is why it's important to be mindful and not eat it frequently. Also to dress it up with as many veggies and good things as you can!!

Ramen Reviews ::

This is another old one that I had originally placed on my instagram story. (Hence the words on the picture) There is tons of instant ramen here, an entire aisle of it at any grocery store. There's a lot to pick from and thus I can often feel a little overwhelmed and just stick to what I'm familiar with instead of braving the unknown. Furthermore, lots of these packets are just noodles and broth (or sauce) but the images on the packaging have vegetables and meat. A bunch of goodies. Basically, you can just buy these and just eat the noodles. However, what I prefer to do is deck them out. Go to the vegetable area and grab a bunch of veggies to pad out the noodles. You end up with a much better dish overall and (depending on how many veggies you add) you might be able to stretch the noodles into two meals instead of one! Now I no longer have this wrapper so I can't properly give you a lot of information besides the image you see above. It was a tonkatsu ramen, aka, ...
