3 Pack Yumei Instant Hotpot Self-Heating 425g, with Vegetable and Noodles in Like Real Life Spicy Flavor Hotpot (Spicy & Hot)

I got spicy and it was great. Very spicy towards the end I needed nigori and some ice cubes to finish it off. Don't buy spicy if you can't handle spice... from reading other reviews I had figured that would be common sense. You don't have to dump the whole chili powder in. The sauce alone has plenty. So I guess you can tweak the spiciness.

Wow. This product was hideous. Dreadful. The packet of vegetables was ok. The seasoning was ok. BUT, my kits did not contain vermicelli. It contained some thick noodles that LOOKED great. However, after the cooking time (which worked very well), I discovered that the noodles were some sort of creepy, gelatinous substance that I could not even bite through. Whatever the 'noodles' were, there is no way these pieces of rubber were intended for human consumption.

If you love spicy that is great. Very flavourful, I just wish it came with meat.

Buy it! Pros: It's an experience. So much fun! I did this with my roommates last night, and we had a blast. It comes with little chop sticks, and we loved all the little veggies inside. Spice level- for me it was perfect. I added all of the packets. If you love spicy food, you'll be happy. (I could've gone spicier.) Make sure you stir everything well. Cons: the pasta didn't cook 100% so we did have to use the microwave to finish. Could've been fixed if we'd added more water in our pots to begin with. Add way more water bc you want your pasta cooked as well as broth. It does need a touch more seasoning, like lime juice. We used Tajin and it was PERFECT. Chef's kiss! Takes about 10 mins to cook, so we did spend a couple hours on the whole process. You'll need a good amount of time for this. Spicy- for me, it was the perfect level of spice, but the guys wished they'd added only half of their spice packets. :[ Get it. It's fun. It's not expensive for what you're getting. These pots are heavy.

Saw these on a youtube video, so of course I had to try them. I love the little kit, and it's easy to prepare. It would be fun for a kids sleepover party. Now, I did NOT like the noodles that came with it. Texture is a big deal for me, and the texture of these was very off putting. But the taste of everything was good. The broth is SPICY. I liked it, though. The veggies are good too. I would definitely buy more, maybe a different flavor, or especially if it came with different noodles. Kind of expensive, but I consider it a novelty item for where I live, in Mississippi, USA. If the price was better I'd buy more often and put in my long-term prep supplies for the convenience.

I really like the convenience and simplicity of making these, but recently I've found these small hard pieces In my food. They're definitely not a hard piece of food (I tried biting into one of them) it looks kinda like broken pieces of wood maybe?

I hesitated at first because these seemed much pricier than my usual dollar store noodles but these are in another class entirely. The self heating feature is great and easy to use, but the quality of the deliciously chewy noodles and the big chunky of fresh veggies and mushrooms make this a full meal. I loved the lotus root in particular. Definitely worth keeping on hand at work for a healthy, boldly spiced lunch.

This is a cool idea but to me it just isn’t good. The flavor is just strange as well as the contents. The heating element and everything worked as it should and came just as pictured.
