Nissin Cup Noodles Big Soba Yakitori Chicken

Cup Noodles, specifically the Big Soba Yakitori Chicken flavor, is a global brand of instant noodles that originated in Japan. It was invented by Momofuku Ando, the founder of Nissin Foods, who created the world's first instant ramen in 1958 and the first cup-style noodles in 1971.

While the brand is Japanese, the products sold across Europe are predominantly manufactured at Nissin's European factory located in Hungary to ensure efficient distribution. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of Nissin Foods Holdings Co., Ltd., which is headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. The Soba line is a specific sub-brand focusing on yakisoba-style stir-fry noodles, featuring a unique draining lid design.
