This is a new item purchased on Amazon. As the product name suggests, it's a ramen bowl that allows you to make instant noodles just by pouring hot water. I bought it thinking of taking it on an overseas business trip, but it was more bulky than I expected, so I didn't take it. I've only used it once at home. The box and instructions are as they were when I bought it. The Maruchan Seimen Tonkotsu flavor, which takes 2 minutes to cook, was reasonably good. It might not be suitable for instant noodles with longer cooking times. The product will be shipped with the box wrapped in plastic wrap (see photo 6).
