These new Maruchan Yakisoba flavors have been announced by the Japan-based instant ramen noodles brand as its latest additions to its product portfolio for the US market. The noodle products include the Chili Cheese Yakisoba and the Orange Chicken Yakisoba, which are each ready to be popped in the microwave for enjoyment in four-minutes.
The Chili Cheese Yakisoba is inspired by home cooked meals and includes a blend of cheddar cheese, sour cream and beef, while Orange Chicken Yakisoba has sweet and tangy tasting notes for fans of the classic Asian cuisine dish to enjoy. The products are slated to make their way to retailers in the US starting this fall.
Manager of Sales and Marketing Mark Machino spoke on the new Maruchan Yakisoba noodle flavors saying, "Our two new Yakisoba flavours address distinct flavour cravings that our audience has been requesting. With our Orange Chicken Yakisoba, we've captured the essence of this iconic dish in a convenient, brothless Yakisoba noodle version. It has that comforting sweet-and-savoury flavour profile you expect, with a kick of tangy chilli."
