This is the first bag of instant noodles which I've tried is no saturated fat and trans fat. It's a healthy food which is low-fat and the rice noodles are non-fried. The price is a little bit higher than other instant noodles I've tried. The size isn't so big and I just half-full and I think I will feel hungry very fast. The soup isn't greasy or strongly flavored and the color of the soup is light. There are a small bag of dehydrated vegetable inside the package with carrot, green onion, green pea and corn. Although the outside of the package mentioned as abalone flavored, actually I didn't taste any flavor as abalone.

Do you know...
-Rice vermicelli sometimes also known as rice noodles or rice sticks. They should not be confused with cellophane noodles, which is another type of vermicelli.
-Bun noodles are made of rice and water but some elasticity is added by way of a bit of the older batch of dough. The soft dough is pushed through a perforated container into a pot of boiling water to cook, then fished out the water and rinsed quickly to cool. The result is chewy-soft. Dried bun noodles contain some tapioca starch to mimic the chewy texture.
-Canh Chua is a sour soup indigenour to the Mekong River region of southrtnn Vietnam. It is typically made with fish from the Mekong River, pineapple, tomatoes(and also sometimes other vegetables such as okra), and bean sprouts, in a tamarind-flavored broth. It's garnished with the lemony-scented herb, carmelized garlic, and chopped scallions, as well as other herbs, according to the specific variety of canh chua.
