Nissin Quick & Easy Chow Mein - Beef Teriyaki Flavored, microwaveable. The flavor is reminiscent of smoked BBQ sauce mixed with a little sweet & spicy Chinese hoisin sauce, though not as sweet.

It’s quite tasty, almost like stir-fried lo mein in a thick dark brown sauce. The tender green onion pieces were quite noticeable and the rare tiny morsels of Shiitake mushroom were delicious. Overall, it has a decent note of beef and vegetable flavors.

Nissin Quick & Easy Chow Mein - Chcken Flavored, microwaveable.

Chicken Chow Mein entree has a sweet dark soy type sauce. Using the modified cooking direction, it tasted quite good. The dried cabbage expanded quite a bit to give more substance to the noodles.
