About this ramen

Kansas City BBQ is a limited-time Cup Noodles flavor inspired by the sweet, saucy barbecue of Kansas City. Its seasoning combines pork stock with molasses, brown sugar, tomato powder and vinegar. Nissin says it has pulled pork notes, and textured soy pieces add the bite. It's microwavable in about five minutes, with no added MSG. Nissin lists Walmart as the retailer, and its label lists wheat, soybean, egg and milk.
