Pikachu Ramen
Maybe someone can explain this product to me.
Is it Pikachu flavored?
Is that meat? Carved from real pikachus or maybe scientifically created in some japanese lab with what they believe a pikachu would taste like, which I assume is marshmallows and crack.
I’ve had beef, chicken, pork, shrimp, etc but never pikachu. So if anyone can read japanese, please let me know what the heck kind of ramen this is.

Looks like beef or chiken flavored with Pikachu shaped narutos.

The “marshmallows” aren’t marshmallows at all. They aren’t meat, either. They’re reconstituted kamaboko, which is made from steamed fish paste. It’s a common ingredient in ramen.

Maybe it is dried and colored meat of some kind?

it’s probably chicken flavored considering the light broth, but those little pink pieces with Pikachu’s face are called Kamaboko. They are made of a sort of fish paste(surimi) and are common in ramen.

Reading the label, it say soy sauce (shoyu) flavor, which is pretty much regular flavor ramen, and those little round things are fishcakes. definetley the weirdest ramen ever… and I MUST HAVE ONE!!!
p.s. You’ve been stumbled upon.

Man, I wish it was pikachu flavoured. That’d be pretty awesome.
Unfortunately, it’s just run of the mill sapporo ichiban. Pretty common actually, I’ve never had a problem finding it.
It’s a promotional version for Pokemon (poketmonsters) diamond and pearl, which explains the creepily happy pikachu faces staring at you. Sadly, I can’t tell you exactly what they’re made of, since I don’t remember rightly myself. However, probably not synthesized pikachu flesh.
Hope that answers some of your questions.

it’s at a bad angle, none of the Japanese showing explains the content of the product

if you could give a direct pic of the top cover i might be able to tell you, theres a glare where i think the flavor is mentioned. also pics of the side would be helpful too.

They aren’t called “naruto” unless they have spirals. It’s not fucking tofu, you tard, and it’s not reconstituded kamaboko. It -is- kamaboko, made from surimi.
Alex, grats on not being stupid and pretending to know about things.

wow pikachu ramen would be cool… but mice, as i have been assured by multiple cases of vomiting, do not taste very good… maybe some milcow beef? or torchick chicken? Bird meat is ok to, like maybe some pigeoto. If you’re daring, I here butterfree taste good with some salt, hmmm?
