A Taste of Thai says: Ready in 4 minutes. Real Thai, real easy. Mix, heat & enjoy. Microwavable container. No preservatives. No trans fats. Gluten-free. No MSG. Authentic Thai taste in just a few minutes. Enjoy real Thai cuisine anytime, anywhere. All in one container. We’ve included all the authentic ingredients and flavors. Produced in Thailand.

Abi says: While there are cooking directions on this box, there are not preparation directions, and that’s where the Peanut Noodles take the eater down the unfortunate road of reheating, mashing up chunks of coagulated coconut milk, and giving in to the eventuality of eating two servings. Two servings of gelatinous rice noodles coated in what could be crushed peanut candy.

Two servings of Peanut Noodles provide half of your saturated fat for the day. Why? Well, this meal comes with many packets. One of these is a dehydrated coconut milk foil pouch. Upon opening the packet, I mistook it for sugar. It is not sugar. It is nature’s way of killing off people who indulge in Peanut Noodles too often.

Oh sweet lord, I can’t tell you why but I am addicted to this flavor. Could it be the white poweder is really crack and not coconut? Am I just another over-indulgent American Consumer? Don’t care. Just need my peanut noodle fix, and this is what I jones for. Tried all teh others - too oily, too soggy, or too bland. This one just does it for me. 4 Stars if I could rate it.

Haven’t tried the peanut yet, but after trying the pad thai I’m definitely excited about the peanut noodles. pad thai is a 4/5 for sure.

So I’m eating the Coconut Ginger variety right now. Gloppy. And it kinda tastes like box. Not like coconut and ginger at all. Next time: Peanut.

These are pretty darn tasty. Too bad they’re so indulgent - no way you’re going to eat half of the box!

Luckily coconut oil does not contribute to heart disease and is actually good for you. Enjoy your Omega 3 fatty acids-yum!
