    I need some true JDM people to help me answer a question.

    What are those little swirly things called that are found in some ramen? (white with a red swirly)

    I've got money riding on this. :laugh:


    Thank you in advance.

    what flavor ramen are they found in?

    I believe what you are talking about is Kamaboko.

    Specifically in Nong Shim Extra Spicy Picante (the Bowl Noodle kind).

    Also: Bielke, what did you think of that stuff?

    Naruto! It's like a fish sausage that is cut, revealing the pink swirl (or sometimes other designs).

    I've also heard it called Naruto, but it's referring to the same thing.

    Where are you finding a Ramen-Ya that actually puts naruto in their bowls????

    My lust for good ramen has driven me to the point of taking a trip back to Japan!

    Origami does. They only offer ramen for their lunch menu though.

    It's sometimes called Naruto because it resembles the Naruto Uzu (natural whirlpools in Naruto).

    The actual fish cake is called kamaboko.

    I have family from the Naruto area and they call it kamaboko :dunno:

    Why you're not calling it by its Korean name (odeng or something... I forget) since you're talking about a Korean ramyeon :dunno: ;)
