Pizza-Flavored Instant Noodles

Cup Noodle's Cheese Pizza Potato Tomato is a Fusion of Comfort Food

The 'Cheese Pizza Potato Tomato Flavor Big' is an all-new product from Cup Noodle's jumbo-sized cup collection that offers the satisfying tastes of two comfort foods in a single product.

The pizza-inspired ramen noodle flavor from Nissin's Cup Noodle brand features a cheese and tomato broth—which boasts a deep red color like a traditional pizza sauce—with hearty additions like chunks of potato, cabbage, cheddar cheese squares and meat. While there have been many iterations of ramen noodle pizza that have been created over the years, this soup version offers an alternative take on the idea.

Cup noodle producers are now looking to elevate what is seen by many as an inexpensive comfort food by offering unexpected, gourmet flavors and rich ingredients.
