Capitalizing on a famous location in South Korea to get crabs (No, not that kind!), HEYROO decided to incorporate some delectable sea spiders into a cup of instant noodles. And thus, HEYROO Sok-Cho Red Snow Crab Cup Noodle was born from the muscles of our crabby overlords. If you think I’m joking about the overlords part, you might want to consider doing a Google search on “carcinisation.” You’ll learn that being crab-like might be a default form of life and that our universe is most likely run by crustaceans. And I’ll bet you thought humanoids were in charge… Well, if you’re looking to anger our crabby creators, you should probably pick this cup of instant noodles up ASAP. Or, maybe you’ve already gotten your claws on a cup. If that’s the case, then let’s get this consortium on preparing these noodles started!

Step 1.) Partially open the lid and remove the two packets from inside

What is happening with HEYROO? Another cup of easy to make instant noodles from them!? I think heck froze over, because it seems like it’s becoming much easier to make them these days. These were nowhere near as excruciating to make as their Shin Buldalk Bibimmyeon. That was torture! So, it looks like we’re in luck today. Let’s just hope this streak of simple cups continues!

Do you prefer King Crab or Snow Crab? What are your thoughts about fake crab meat? Is it a good substitute for the real thing? Let me know in the comments!
