This year, we are re-releasing these three products, as well as releasing a striking new product from the Chicken Ramen brand, perfectly suited to Black Friday.
Black Chicken Ramen features a jet-black soup with a “spice curry” flavor, based on the delicious flavor of chicken and enhanced with 18 different spices. The rich flavor and rich aroma of the spices will stimulate your appetite.
