Acecook, headquartered in Suita, Osaka, is adding two new products to its lineup: "Spice Lovers' Soy Sauce Ramen" and "Spice Lovers' Salt Tanmen." Both hit shelves across Japan on June 1, 2026, priced at 236 yen (tax excluded).
The two varieties are finished with "Super Habit-Forming Pepper" (超やみつきペッパー), a seasoning jointly developed with S&B Foods in 2017. The inspiration behind this release is a street-Chinese-restaurant flavor profile that pairs well with pepper — a rich, chicken-and-spiced-vegetable soy sauce ramen alongside a salt tanmen balanced with onion, ginger, and garlic.
Spice Lovers' Soy Sauce Ramen
- Noodles: Smooth, springy round-cut noodles with a clean bite. Lightly seasoned to let the noodle flavor shine. (Rehydration time: 3 minutes)
- Soup: A soy sauce base rounded out with the savory depth of chicken and aromatic vegetables. The included "Super Habit-Forming Pepper" packet adds a kick that gets more irresistible with every bite.
- Toppings: Crisp cabbage, seasoned ground meat, egg, and green onions.
- Packaging: Bold, appetite-stimulating design aimed squarely at spice enthusiasts.
Spice Lovers' Salt Tanmen
- Noodles: Smooth, springy round-cut noodles with a clean bite. Lightly seasoned to complement the overall flavor. (Rehydration time: 3 minutes)
- Soup: A chicken-based salt soup enhanced with a well-balanced blend of onion, ginger, and garlic. The "Super Habit-Forming Pepper" packet turns each spoonful into something increasingly hard to put down.
- Toppings: Crisp cabbage, sweet corn, carrot, and green onions.
- Packaging: Bold, appetite-stimulating design aimed squarely at spice enthusiasts.
