Worth trying when you find it on sale (ie. it had 1 month left before expiration so it was really cheap!) It's spicy, as in more than Shin Ramen spicy and soondae had good flavor and actually better AFTER it bursts... bc the casing is inedibly tough. Threw out the veggie pack (mostly soggy cabbage) bc it smelled like plastic and tossed in whatever veggies in fridge with rice cakes instead.
