ease of making is evaluated by a deduction method from 10 points.
①If the waiting time after adding hot water is 5 minutes or more, 2 points will be deducted.
②If it is difficult to open, 2 points will be deducted.
③If there are 2 or more bags of ingredients and soup, 2 points will be deducted.
④If the required amount of hot water is 400cc or more, 2 points will be deducted.
⑤If hot water drainage or hot water replacement is required, 2 points will be deducted.
MiraiThe evaluation with “amount of ingredients” and “ease of making” is high.
But I have the impression that the “texture of noodles” has a low rating.
Impressions of graders on Cup Noodle”Nissin”
How do graders feel about Cup Noodle”Nissin”? The graders are free to give their impressions.
| Grader T | Stable taste. It’s well seasoned, so it’s a good idea to prepare something that can be diluted, such as beer, rice, or bread rolls, and eat it with them. It seems that you can easily eat outdoors when camping or climbing. |
| Grader E | It is a long-selling product because it is easy to make and has a stable taste. I noticed that the taste was stronger than other cup noodles. |
| Grader R | It is good to have a lot of ingredients, but the quality of the noodles is not very good. However, consideration is given to customers, such as the fact that it takes less time to make and it is not hot to hold the side of the container. |
| Grader M | It’s really easy to just open the lid and pour hot water! But I want the noodles to be a little thicker. |
MiraiIt’s interesting because the graders evaluate from various points of view.
