[@ghostfiish]

I'm obsessed with this rating system - I think it's my favorite yet. The facial expression sticker on each wrapper is such a funny visual, topped only by the explanations for why each was chosen. The reasoning makes perfect sense in the moment, and then out of context is completely (hilariously) unintelligible. No wonder Ian forgot his own ratings. 10/10

[@Teeth2000]

Best part of the whole video is Ian getting completely confused by the review system he himself made

[@peshomighty5051]

Try black bean noodle it is nice. Paldo Jjajangmen for the curry like paste. Or the other one with the powder you have to mixed 2 tablespoons of water with it.

[@Mister0men]

the trick with the Buldak noodles: The more distressed the chicken looks, and the more fire its breathing on the pack, the spicier it is. If you find the ones with a chicken in full samurai armor crying and spitting fire you're in for a treat

[@Aldenfenris]

Yeah, there are quite a variety of "spicy" from them, very much so.

[@melskunk]

Given he was suffering with "mildly concerned" chicken that might kill him

[@sparks6177]

Yeah, the curry was one of their “mild” flavors so I can’t imagine what would happen if he tried some of hot versions

[@PineappleLiar]

Have extra fun with the noodles by topping them with actual buldak chicken then wonder why you’re excreting fluid from every face orifice while eating the very spicy chicken atop very spicy noodles. Fr though my default is the standard flavor then adding bacon + corn + some third thing at the end. The corn helps provide little pockets of relief from the heat. Chopping up kimchi actually makes a pretty good third option, though I like mushrooms/zucchini more.

[@monhi64]

I’ve also noticed that the spice packets are so spicy that even the outside of fresh unopened packets are already pretty spicy. It could just be sloppy production, getting the spice on the outside of the packet too. But I think it’s just so spicy that enough of the capsaicin molecules are traveling through to end up spicy on the other side. Not sure why they didn’t fix this, just gotta change whatever material the packet is

[@selfdestructking8316]

​@@Tinil0 I'm personally in my late 20s and the sarcasm and jagged editing gets a good chuckle out of me. Don't know about teens, but I get what you mean, I can see how it might appeal to them. I'm glad you tried watching this and you are an example of how one can dislike something but be polite about it. I don't think that saying "Don't like? Don't watch!" is wrong, but after a while, people repeat it mindlessly even when there is no offense behind the comment. Being critical is not wrong, just like it can be wrong to criticise without any substance behind the critique. If you aren't inflammatory when it's not needed, I think everything can be said.

[@dreadwolfrising]

Instant ramen hacks for y'all: 1) Samyang (Buldak) makes plain packaged ramen which you can find for half the price of the individually packaged flavoured ones. So if you want a halfway between instant ramen and making your own sauces/broths, it's handy - just keep some spices and sauces on hand. Buldak even has some of their hot chicken sauces in bottles! 2) Poaching an egg and quickly wilting some spinach while you boil your noodles adds some protein and nutrients without adding much effort. If you don't mind a little bit of effort in advance, you can make "ramen eggs" to have on hand. Signed, someone who works too much for too little and doesn't have a ton of cooking energy (also mi goreng does slap)

[@SLAUGHTERAMA]

Yes. Lime is a common component of pho. Also, pro tip - don’t cook the rice noodles in hot water. Rehydrate them in room temp water, drain them, add to broth. The passive heat from the broth will keep the rice noodles from overcooking.

As a resident guy of Vietnamese descent man here. Squeezing a bit of fresh lime into Pho is pretty common to balance out the salty flavors with a bit of sour.

Every time I see a new Ian video, I think, "Man, I miss the old Ian videos" and then I watch it and get swept away by the chill vibes and the style that never went away. I'm sure I'll say the same thing about these food videos if he ever switched back to games. It's been a cool ride, and I'm just happy to be one eye in the sea of many who bore witness to this over the years.

Phở places usually give you a lime wedge on the plate of sprouts/jalapeños/Thai basil to add to your liking, so it is a thing in phở.

[@soaringspoon]

Gods pickiest boi is back and I couldn’t be happier.

[@edman1357]

12:26 I really appreciate Ian confirming his poop lore for the subreddit. *Jots down “little pellets”*

[@gwennorthcutt421]

eating lunch was a mistake, but i muster onward

[@lyraharpstrings8025]

Your content is the definition of quality vs quantity. I always get really excited when I see you've posted because its always really good stuff.

Vegetarian here! Yes all noodles are vegetarian, but not all seasonings are. Most chicken or beef flavoring packets have dehydrated beef and chicken stock essentially which isn't vegetarian. Vegetarian noodles just use a vegetable broth base for their flavor instead of a bone broth or something (The best vegetarian instant noodles are the shin green mushroom and fried tofu, its a life changer)

[@kingarkay]

his comment made me depressed as also a vegetarian often disappointed reading the ingredients lists of ramen that look like they're going to be vegetarian and then aren't Indomie Mi Goreng is actually vegetarian so it also contends for best vegetarian noodle my other favorites are Paldo Bibimmen and Buldak Carbonara!!

[@fuse3657]

I'll never get over your fantastic editing style.

[@nuggie8561]

THE TWIST AT THE END WAS SO RIGHT IVE NEVER AGREED WITH ANYONE MORE THANK YOU IAN BRUTALMOOSE

[@YaBoyGeneric]

We summonin' Cathy Mitchell with this one!

[@tommydebo5]

Love that crunch!

[@1Thunderfire]

Really? Ramen noodles?

[@naifaris]

24:53 I was so ready to shout about this in the comments after watching the video, but then you mentioned it suddenly. Now I can 100% trust your instant noodle reviews 😄

[@thenowhereman3295]

Was literally wondering why he left out Mi goreng. By far the best we have found.

[@jvg7498]

MI GORENG SWEEP

[@garretag4042]

As someone watching your brutalfoods from the start and loving every video, I really appreciate the "plop" from the beef roll video coming back often. The little things man. You rock!

[@seraphimo2869]

absolutely love the plot twist!! especially since the Indo Mie Mi goreng one is my #1 go-to and I was disappointed when I didn’t see it in the original line up

[@stickitydoodah]

They're pretty good yeah. I feel like they used to be better until recently but that's how everything is now. Enshittification at its finest

[@mako6894]

Im glad to see ian offically recovering from ramen related ptsd from the ramen tacos

[@Milestheotherguy]

I saw this and it was an instant click, basically no matter what you make, I will watch, Ian!

[@Eggbrat]

We see the brutalmoose, we watch the brutalmoose

[@TimeTravelingFetus]

I'll hold you to that.

[@starmano34]

As someone who eats buldak 3x on the regular, when ian brutalmoose thought the curry flavor was an 8/10 spice i KNEW the real shit was gonna be a problem

[@Halcryder]

Ian at Jin Ramen: too spicy Me: I can’t wait for the buldak noodles

[@MrDrProfessorPurple]

I love how Ian elected to do this video himself and by like the 5th noodle pack he is already fed up with the whole ordeal. Truly one of god’s freest beasts shackled by its own hubris.

[@LLynx]

Youre probably done with instant noodles, but try the carbonara buldak ramen. They are sublime.

[@StrongWillAlchemist]

I had to stop the video half way through and make me a bowl of ramen. I always love your funky style moose 8:55

[@JakeJakers]

"Ranked By Babish" will never compare to "Unholy VHS Nightmare Showdown"

[@FaultyTwo]

Never trust a man who likes Gatorwine.

[@MCFLY4]

I couldn’t be happier rn. As I’m scrolling through KZbin while sipping on my midnight bowl of ramen THE LEGEND HIMSELF POSTED

[@tomlee_bomlee]

i really like that this video is edited and styled like a video!! very attention. i have given!! you have everything from noodle. i i love noodles!

[@annabelle067]

this man could make a video rating different shapes of ice with different waters and id watch

[@viedal]

the spicy jin ramen reaction is everyone's first reaction to spicy jin ramen. "oh! yeah it's kinda spicy.... oh it's building up...... *oh no*"

[@eggbag4182]

My favorite noodle is mine, expanding with knowledge as I use it to consume Brutalmoose and Brutalfoods content

[@Lmaobama]

My favorite thing about the Brutalfoods series is that the editing makes everything feel like a fever dream

[@abnormalcrucible9187]

Best veggie style instant ramen I've ever had was Nongshim Soon veggie style noodles. SO good. Its just a little spicy, and the broth is divine, super hearty vegetable broth with spring onion and garlic flavors.

[@flokleiser]

i just rewatched the hungry man showdown video, what a nice coincidence

[@darkninjafirefox]

Same!

[@CommanderFlake]

You've always had a unique way of editing your videos and have always been entertaining to re-watch all these years later thank you for all the good content.

[@alienator3607]

with two weeks until I move into uni accommodation, this video couldnt have come at a better time! thank you chef Ian

[@feltfrog]

ayy me too lol

[@greed0599]

Should look up Binging with Babish's noodle review too

[@BeIlG]

The amount of time to do all these little jokes in the editing. ABSOLUTELY MY FAV!!!! I make sure I am dedicated to watch because I just love your editing so much!!!

[@rock9154]

The ranking systems only get more absurd in subsequent BrutalFoods videos. I fucking love that we've gotten to a point where even Ian finds them incomprehensible

[@suzans.9682]

My sister and I are long time watchers and talked about ramen today. No way this dropped, I am so happy lmao
