Chung Jung One O'Food Tteokbokki Variety Pack, Pack of 5, Instant Korean Rice Cakes, Authentic Spicy Street Food, Ready to Eat, No MSG, No Corn Syrup

UPDATE 2: The garlic flavor was decent. Sweeter than I expected.UPDATE: The sweet chili flavor 100% redeems the awful Rosé flavor. Sweet yet savory, just a hint of heat on the back end *channels Food Network* highly recommend. Realizing this is a flavor review. But product-wise? They're satisfyingly squishy when cooked, easy to prepare.I anticipated the Rose to be at least a little spicy, but it was mostly just grossly sweet. I have not tried the other flavors, and I'm pretty sad this is the one I opened first, I couldn't stomach more than a couple bites, it even smells too sweet.. The instructions were simple, so I don't think I did anything wrong. I hope the rest are at least a little better. Hopefully I'll be able to update the review.

Delicious and easy to make! Definitely worth every dollar! It's just the right amount for me too.

I've eaten a lot of tteokboki and I do like this brand. Chewy, fresh rice cakes and a decent assortment of flavors - although my favorite from them is diablo which isn't in this assortment. These are only rice cakes and sauce, no fish cakes, so it can feel like there's something missing if you're used to having fish cakes with your tteokboki.They are easy and quick to make and I like to add things like cheese, eggs, cream, or sausages to make it more filling. Best eaten immediately as the rice cakes will absorb the sauce.Flavor ranking1. Sweet Chili - Surprised at how good this was. Only mildly spicy but it might be too sweet for some people. It has sort of an umanmi flavor and is delicious with cheese. My mouth is literally watering thinking about it.2. Original - basic gochujang sauce. Spicier than sweet chili but still not too spicy3. Garlic - like a garlic stir fry sauce4. BBQ - similar to a teriyaki sauce but had an odd flavor I associate with marmite. Looking at the ingredients list the flavor is from yeast extract. It's a little off putting.5. Rosé - bizarrely acidic. I've had Korean rosé tteokboki and ramen too and they didn't taste like this. Vaguely reminiscent of gone off yogurt. Would not recommend. Maybe mine was bad?

This with some banchan, fried eggs and a bit of rice is perfect. Or even with some mozzarella, a hard boiled egg and green onion. It is complimentary with so many foods or good on its own.The heat level is perfect on the original flavor :) The texture of the rice cakes are perfect if you follow the instructions. The people complaining about spice while ordering something with gochujang is completely redundant.Now, I believe you can definitely go to HMart and get it for a bit cheaper, but ordering from this seller off Amazon is super helpful in situations where Asian supermarkets are not accessible.

The garlic tteokbokki is really good. Just the right amount of heat and spice for someone new to Korean foods/spices. If its not spicy enough for you, you can always add more seasonings to your liking. Its quick and simple to make. My only issue is the price for the size of the package(s). You get two rice cake packages and two sauce packages for (I paid) $7.99. The rice cake packages are rather small - I wouldn't even exactly call it a side dish its that small... More like a 'snack.' Would love to buy these again, but the price is too high for what I got.

I couldn’t help but come and write a review of this brand of tteokbokki. I am celiac and can’t have gluten, so most brands aren’t safe for my dietary needs. But this is the real deal. Rosé is my favorite flavor but the sweet chili is also super yummy! If you don’t like too much heat, those are the mildest options. Sometimes I add a small scoop of gluten free gochujang if I want more kick. There are spicier options too but I haven’t tried them yet.I like adding sliced up sausage and extra rice cakes to these because the amount of rice cakes provided in one serving compared to the amount of sauce never feels like quite enough. If you order extra rice cakes some are shelf stable while others require refrigeration so definitely check to make sure you store them correctly. Some are ready to cook and some require soaking the night before so, again, make sure you check on what kind you are getting. The rice cakes in these packages are both ready to cook and shelf stable until opened then should be refrigerated if you have leftovers.I don’t recommend the microwave cups - mine boiled over in the microwave. The stovetop versions are perfect though!10/10

These are kinda sweet from the sauce so you might have someone asking if you are making caramel or anything sweet. Is easy to prepare. They are rice cakes so they are a bit chewy.

Sweet chili is the best flavor so far. Not spicy at all and very flavorful. Great with some melted cheese! Rosé flavor I couldn't even finish. Fake chemical sweetness from the powdered "cream" flavor.
