Canned ramen has been a hit product in Akihabara following on from the success of canned udon. Now regional makers are getting in on the trend and this tonkotsu ramen offering above comes from Fukuoka company Hakata Sugaya. Connoisseurs of Japanese products might like to know that the packaging was designed by the same illustrator who drew the box and label for Kidsbeer.

Think of how great it will be to add to your "earthquake preparedness kits".

Not just as a food source but will work well for degreasing engines, lighting fires and other necessary tasks after "the big one hits".
