Taste the noodle.
An air-dried noodle eats differently from a fried one: springier, cleaner, no oily film on the broth. Words won’t settle it. Three cups will.

What’s in the cup
Savory Umami Beef. The one that started it.
A deep beef-style broth over a thin, air-dried noodle with the protein worked into the dough. Read the numbers before you cook it, then read them again after.
- 32gplant protein
- 230calories
- 5gfiber
- 630mgsodium
- Air-dried, never fried. The noodle is steamed and dried, so there is no frying oil and 0g trans fat.
- More than half the calories are protein. 56% in this cup. A typical instant cup is closer to 10%.
- Five minutes and a kettle. Hot water to the line, lid on, wait. No microwave.
Why try it first
Three cups is enough to know.
Check the math.
Log a cup the way you log everything else. 32g of protein for 230 calories is the whole argument, and it should hold up in your own tracker.
Decide with your own numbers.
If it earns a place in your week, the 12-pack is there. If it doesn’t, you spent the price of postage and you know.
Batch one
This is where the company starts.
NOMI has one production run so far. No warehouse, no team, no shelf. The cups in your sample box came out of that first batch, and the box itself was printed, packed and taped by me at the counter you see in the video.
I am not trying to launch big. I am trying to find the first few hundred people who track what they eat, who missed the cup at 2am the way I did, and who will tell me the truth about this one. Every sample that goes out is a bet that you are one of them.
So here is the deal. Cook the three cups. Then tell me what you thought, good or harsh, in a review. If it earned it, the First Batch 12-pack is how the next batch gets made, and everyone who buys from batch one gets the next batch early and a say in what comes after.

Your three-cup sample.
You’re on the list. Your three cups are one step away. Checkout asks for your delivery address and mobile number; you’ll see the shipping options and total before payment.
Add my three free cupsOne sample per person: the name, email and phone number at checkout must match the ones you gave, and each can claim once. Repeat claims are cancelled.
The lid contains foil. Peel the lid off completely before microwaving. Boiling water from a kettle needs no microwave at all.
