Nissin Chikin Ramen (日清チキンラーメン) is a noodle brand and the first marketed brand of Japanese instant noodles produced by Nissin Foods since 1958. It was invented by Momofuku Ando after he saw how to cook tempura in his house in Ikeda, Osaka.[1] It is currently referred to in English as Chicken Ramen by the company.[2] The product is sold in Japan with small amounts exported overseas by distributors.[citation needed]

History

Instant noodles were invented by Taiwanese-Japanese inventor Momofuku Ando in Japan, and his invention was first marketed on 25 August 1958 by Ando's company, Nissin, under the brand name Chikin Ramen.[3]

Description

Unlike Nissin's other noodles, the ramen does not have seasoning packets but are contained within the noodle itself.[4]
