In the May 2008 issue of Maxim Magazine, our Functional Instant Noodles struck all the right cords as the editors praised our nutrition and functional ingredients, attractive packaging design, and our safe and environmentally friendly packaging!

“This Bowl is Great for Your Health - Other brands of instant noodles with intense flavors will have to move over now that this Bowl is here!

We have all been eating instant noodles for a long time now. As tasty as they are, most people probably try to limit their consumption because of concerns about the lack of nutrition. This issue, however, will be a concern no more as a new brand new brand of instant noodles, Red Chopsticks, is daring to be different. New thinking and making it a reality to create a healthy product with added functional ingredients. Isn’t that awesome?!!

The functional ingredients are different for each of the Bowls and flavors. There are 4 varieties to choose from: Beauty Bowl - Chicken Flavor with added marine collagen, Power Bowl - Hot and Sour Shrimp (Tom Yum) Flavor with added L-Carnitine, Kid Bowl - Seafood Flavor with added Omega-3 and DHA, Green Bowl - Seaweed Flavor with added dietary fiber Inulin-Oligofructose.

Besides being packed with nutritious and beneficial ingredients, the bowl packaging is also attractively designed as well! The bowl material is tolerant of high temperatures and is microwaveable. For those that want to reuse the bowls in order to reduce the amount of garbage and decrease our impact on global warming, it is something that should be encouraged! After you are finished with reading this article, rush to the nearest Tops Market or Central Food Hall nationwide for a taste! “

Beauty Bowl

“Instant noodles have now gone hi-tech and hi-tasty. Mawai Food Corporation has got folks in a slurping frenzy with its four healthy varieties of Red Chopsticks noodles: Beauty Bowl, Kid Bowl, Power Bowl and Green Bowl. As seen here, the chicken flavoured Beauty Bowl is a rich source of marine collagen, the main protein of connective tissue in animals and humans. It makes up some 25% of total protein content and its rejuvenating effects include increasing the skin’s moisutre content and flexibility while improving conditions such as kurtosis (skin roughness). info@redchopsticksbrand.com”

In the March 2008 issue, our Red Chopsticks Functional Instant Noodles got a great mention again in their “Eat Right by Plypular” Section. Here’s what they had to say:

“”Bowl Noodles that Do Your Health No Harm

Generally, instant noodle products may be a convenient product, but it doesn’t have much benefits. They lack in nutritional value, and has a high fat content. If you enjoy eating them to satisfy your desire, then it is ok. However, if you wanted it to sustain your life with them, we would definitely not recommend it.

A new entrant is set to change that! Bowl instant noodles under the Red Chopsticks Brand, are products that have added functional ingredients in order for it to truly be beneficial for your health. For instance, the Chicken flavor has added marine collagen, suitable for women. Their Shrimp Tom Yum (Hot and Sour Shrimp) flavor had added L-Carnitine and is suitable for those who like to exercise and play sports. The Seafood flavor had added Omega-3s and is beneficial for children’s development. Lastly, the Seaweed flavor has added soluble dietary fiber that is good for gut health. Furthermore, the entire bowl can be micro-waved safely without any potential harm to your health as well.”

“For Your Chopstick: Functional Noodle”

We had bumped into a unique new brand of instant noodles from a company called “Mawai”. Initially, we thought that it might have been a combination of two current industry giants in the local instant noodle sector, but after looking at it carefully, we realized that it was an entirely different company with a totally different take on the instant noodle product.

They say that their instant noodles are overflowing with nutritional benefits due to the addition of functional ingredients that include L-Carnitine, Omega 3, and Collagen. The different product varieties are gears towards different lifestyles such as the Kid Bowl with added DHA and Omega 3, or a Beauty Bowl for women with collagen for instance. All products are MSG-free with virtually no cholesterol. Looks like an interesting concept to market. To consider the nutritional value at 49 Baht per bowl however, I personally would rather spend it on some fermented sausage at my local store (j/k).

Mars, a unique unisex magazine, featured our products in their M Products page in their February 2008 issue. Recognized for being more than just an instant food with a disposable container, the re-usability and safety of our packaging is also highlighted here!
