Korean Vegan Instant Noodles Abroad 해외 비건라면

In recent years, Korean food has become more widely known globally. This is also the case with Korean instant noodles! 🍜 But did you know that overseas, many Korean ramen are vegan by default?! 🤯 Although in South Korea, the same type of noodles produced by the same company is NOT VEGAN. 😱 On top of that, there are surprisingly many options for vegans and vegetarians among Korean instant noodles! [In fact, there exist more than there are vegan-friendly ramen in Korea!]

Several large Korean companies have created regional versions of classic instant noodles for the international market. 🇰🇷➡️🌍🌏🌎 Most of those ramen are produced inside Korea, but they are used only for export.

Different versions of Korean ramen are exported to different regions of the world. While some countries get a version that is plant-based, other countries get a version which contains meat or seafood. Besides referring to this page, I recommend checking the ingredients in your particular region to make sure you find a version that suits your preference. ⚠️ The name of the product may be (almost) identical, but the design of the packaging slightly differs! And the ingredients are different! 🕵️‍♀️ In short, for each product, ingredients, packaging and the exact writing of the name vary by region. For example, the Shin ramen available in Europe and Australia has an image of ramen garnished with vegetables and mushrooms 🥕🍄, whereas the version exported to the USA features noodles with meat, vegetables and mushrooms. 🥩🥕🍄 The European and Australian versions of the classic Shin ramyun are vegan and halal certified 🌱, but the US-American version contains beef. 🐄 In South Korea, the original Shin ramyeon includes components of egg, beef and pork. 🥚🐄🐖

Furthermore, you need to be mindful about each product’s serving size and the corresponding container. ⚠️ There are different serving sizes for a certain type of instant noodles. Even when a square-shaped package of ramen contains only plant-based ingredients, the same type of ramen sold in a different serving size (e.g. cup or big bowl) contains different and occasionally non-vegan ingredients. The same can be true vice versa! To stick with above example, Korea’s Shin ramyeon in a cup container lists egg, beef and milk as ingredients 🥚🐄🥛, while the square package contains pork instead of dairy. 🥚🐄🐖

Also be aware that most of the ramen are produced along with Korea’s non-vegan ramen, which means that they may be cross-contaminated with animal-derived allergens or other substances. In case you are highly allergic and sensitive to trace amounts, pay attention to the note on each packaging saying “Manufactured in a factory that also processes […]” or “May contain traces of […]”! 🏷

If you live outside of Korea, you may come across these vegan-friendly instant noodles. Depending on where you are, you can probably find them in Asian food stores, online shops or even at your local supermarket. Particularly cities with a large East Asian population tend to stock instant noodles from Korea!

If you live in Korea, most of the products listed here are not available to you. There may be a Korean version, but those originals are typically not vegan, vegetarian, halal or kosher. So the instant noodles below are currently not available in South Korea. [How I wish the Korean companies would simply release their veggie-friendly ramen in their home country as well… 😤] Most people in Korea have no chance to eat these noodles unless they travel abroad or they have a personal supplier outside the country. 🥷 You could ask friends / family to send them to you, or to bring them when visiting. 📦🧳 This would be the opposite of Koreans packing large amounts of ramen whenever they travel abroad! [The irony of importing exported Korean products back to Korea… 🙃]

Do you know any vegan-friendly Korean ramen other than those listed here? Please show them to me, I’d love to see what’s out there! 😘 Also, feel free to share information about where you can find listed products in the comments! [This blog is read by people all over the world! 💚🌍🌏🌎]

Below is a compilation of vegan instant noodles currently available outside of South Korea. You can find differing ingredient lists of ramen products available in Australia, Europe, India and the USA, which may be similar to versions in other regions. Each entry contains the name of the product, its main characteristics and the company, while also providing a list of ingredients in English. [The ingredient lists are written in a smaller font for layout reasons. 🔍] There are also photos of the packaging, its content and the cooked dish. 📷 This page will be gradually updated with more images and new products, as soon as they get discovered or analysed.

Because taste is subjective, there is no ranking here.

Please note that the instant noodles here are considered plant-based according to the ingredients listed on the packaging. Some may not be vegan by definition of not containing sugar filtered with bone char, or be produced without similar processes involving animal-based products or animal exploitation. Korean producers often do not provide such detailed information on the packaging. While some products are certified vegan by various organisations [some vegan labels, however, are disputed!], others do not possess a vegan confirmation from an outside agent.
