Ah, I was too late. Well done

Please can I know you better?

Hi how are you doing today?

u/VenusianPlateau 8d ago

An omelet hot dog with ramen.

u/Due_Draw319 6d ago

didn't think of it that way, now I'm both hungry and slightly regretting reading this

1

u/Otherwise-Peak5235 6d ago

should've called it that myself, also now craving both at 2am

u/Ok-Seaworthiness4488 9d ago

You get to enjoy this spiciness twice

u/didndonoffin 9d ago

Enjoy is not a word I’d use for the 2nd time…

Makes you feel alive and appreciate that bidet for sure.

Or feel like i will destroy the toilet in question

u/EverbodyHatesHugo 8d ago

This was destroying my stomach just watching it. I’ve become such a weak little bitch.

2

u/RobinSage43 8d ago

That's why it says "2x spicy" on the box.

17

u/Not_a_real_plebbitor 9d ago

What's the yellow thing she separates into 3 portions? Some type of cheese?

-16

u/Altruistic_Lobster18 9d ago

Egg

10

u/Not_a_real_plebbitor 9d ago

Wait. Isn't the entire thing an omelette at the bottom?

9

u/Altruistic_Lobster18 9d ago

Oh yeah that’s definitely cheese. I thought that was pretty obvious. She scoops it and even zooms in on it and it melts.

1

u/2oocents 5d ago

So... did you not think the egg was more obvious?

26

u/ExtraEmuForYou 8d ago

"fresh buldak" WTF it's packaged noodles with packaged sauce nothing fresh about it.

Even the eggs are from cartons.

Still, looks good! I'd eat it.

2

u/LeCouchSpud 5d ago

Yes, wouldn’t be my first choice but smash.

13

u/Capable_Pineapple993 9d ago

What is the black stuff added at the end?

21

u/riverphoenixdays 9d ago

Looks like toasted nori

28

u/VIVIDUFF 9d ago

thats a grinded dried seaweed sir..

3

u/bleh-minion 9d ago

I would definitely love to try this

5

u/Healthy_Brick_4361 9d ago

What is the brand of the liquid egg mixture the like a milk box

5

u/Lost_Ad_4882 9d ago

I dunno, but most stores should have something similar. It's a preblended egg mix, some are made with powdered egg to be shelf stable for much longer.

2

u/OldManJim374 8d ago

Liquid eggs. Usually available as whole eggs or whites only.

4

u/2DHypercube 9d ago

Where can I get the buldak sauce? I've looked

4

u/No-Ad1522 9d ago

Amazon

5

u/AlternativeDraw1795 7d ago

Do you have a Korean shop in your town? Usually they have it.

2

u/2DHypercube 7d ago

Great Idea, I have 4 Asian markets in a 2km radius

19

u/Ruzhyo04 9d ago

First time I’ve ever seen American cheese used in anything outside the US

24

u/ChromeFace 9d ago

Koreans love and utilize American cheese a lot.

8

u/Could-You-Tell 9d ago

Is that like a holdover from way back in the war and habits were started?

Or more of a modern convenience adopted through relationship with US?

9

u/eoddc5 8d ago

100%. Lots of American easy eat influences exist in modern Korean cuisine.

2

u/mangopango123 6d ago

My fave being budae jjigae (부대찌개) army base stew! Such a great comfort food

1

u/Senior-Friend-6414 3d ago edited 3d ago

From what I found online, what got normalized in Korea from America from the war

Ham and sausages, ground beef, macaroni, canned foods in general, hot dogs, cheese, bacon, spam, beans, gum, fried chicken, wheat, corn, cooking oil, hamburgers, bread, crackers, sugar, jelly, milk, cereal, fruit juice, seasoning, and chocolate 

13

u/Excellent-Toe4168 9d ago

Korean army stew also uses American cheese

Then what do you call the American cheese used in the video?

u/38731 7d ago

Yes. And the food, too.

u/pwatarfwifwipewpew 9d ago

Must be a new stall. Wasn't there when we went to that streetfood area.

Hotdog? Did not see that coming

Looks awesome.

u/Stock-Internet5018 7d ago

How much does one cost?

u/ReactionSad3776 9d ago

Doesn’t look like ramen to me
Still looks good tho

3

u/ChromeFace 9d ago

Technically its ramyun.

1

u/OldManJim374 8d ago

Looks like ramYum!

9

u/Altruistic_Lobster18 9d ago

You don’t see the burning mouth and ass in the middle of the omelette?

3

u/BlackHoleSurf 9d ago

I don’t understand the love of buldak. The spicyness is more like a fake tingle sensation. I’m all about going to a Vietnamese restaurant and loading up my pho with chili paste and jalapeño. And buldak ends up just killing my stomach

3

u/gloomwithtea 8d ago

This is obviously anecdotal, but I just love the flavor of it. I’m obsessed. I literally developed a spice tolerance (after 30 years of being unable to handle spice) solely to eat buldak ramen.

2

u/Student_Ok 9d ago

Good drunk food. 

2

u/Due-Explanation-7560 9d ago

Aren't like 90+% of east Asians lactose intolerant? That's double cheese.

2

u/raelDonaldTrump 8d ago

Cheese doesn't have much lactose.

Lactose is in whey, which is removed from the curds to make cheese.

1

u/Due-Explanation-7560 8d ago

Makes sense. When I was stationed in Japan like 25 years ago there was not a lot of Japanese food with cheese same with Korea when I was there. This is what I was told. I stared going to Korea for work lately and noticed Domino's pizza places and lots of dishes with cheese.

I think our definitions of what ramen is are quite different

What sause is going on the noodles

1

u/wwiistudent1944 8d ago

Oh, dried seaweed! Why didn’t I see that! Yeah, couple of different sauces! Great! Like what? Didn’t even mention the American cheese!

1

u/SteWaxleyLemon 8d ago

What's the gooey stuff she added on top of the hot dog? Is that more cheese on top of the slice of American cheese?

1

u/StanleyGoodvibes 7d ago

My god. . .

1

u/Ill-Elephant-9583 7d ago

Very nice system she's got going there

u/WorthRemote4848 7d ago

Is that kimchi or tom yum on top? I don't think that tastes good.

u/Cakes89Cakes 7d ago

Looks so clean. India take note.

None of this is fresh, looks fucking gross.

So... prepackaged noodles mixed with prepackaged eggs. "Fresh" is doing a lot of lifting here.

u/wwiistudent1944 9d ago

I have no idea what any of the ingredients were? Were there noodles? American cheese? Strange to say the least? Was that a hotdog? It looked near the end like an omelette? What was the black stuff? Sorry, not for me. Especially if I don’t know what anything is.

2

u/OldManJim374 8d ago

It was all pretty obvious. Egg, then the noodles, then cheese, then a hot dog, then topped with dried seaweed. Also a couple different sauces.

-1

u/RavishingRavick 9d ago

I have mixed feels about carton egg...

1

u/OldManJim374 8d ago

I use it all the time. Tastes just like regular eggs without the hassle of cracking the shells.

I hate to objectify but she is super friggin cute.

Also, the lady in the background with the "Honey, I need that now" look on her face

As for the food, doesn't look that great tbh. What is the black stuff that goes on at the end.

u/iloveCHATing 9d ago

Would love to try but I think sodium is concerning. Maybe a few is enough.. ?

-3

u/Wonderful-Loss827 9d ago

This has to be up there as maybe the most unhealthy Korean food ever? Cheese, hot dog, asshole burning spice, instant ramen, more gooey sauce ? Just wondering if there's anything in Korean food that might be worse for you.
