Cup Noodles Campfire S’mores: A Strange Yet Tempting Treat

Hold on to your marshmallows, folks!

Nissin Foods USA has taken everyone's favorite fireside treat and turned it into a noodle dish.

Yes, you read that right.

Introducing the limited-edition Cup Noodles Campfire S'mores flavor. It's a gooey, sweet noodle experience that’s now available exclusively at Walmart.

Um, I'm skeptical. It sounds slightly foul.But also kinda intriguing, right?

S’mores and summer go together like bad choices and whiskey.

They remind us of those nostalgic nights around the campfire.

Now, Cup Noodles Campfire S'mores aims to bring that vibe to you wherever you are. Imagine the flavors of decadent chocolate, marshmallow, and graham cracker mixed with a smoky note, all in noodle form.

No campfire required!

(This is actually a good thing. Because S'mores are a third degree burn waiting to happen, in my estimation.)

Just add water, a little courage, microwave for three minutes, let it stand for two, and boom—you’ve got yourself a saucy s’mores ramen.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can top it off with extra graham crackers or mini marshmallows for that ultimate gooey bite.

"Since its invention nearly 100 years ago, the beloved s’more has been adapted into countless flavors and recipes, and now ramen," said Priscila Stanton, Senior Vice President of Marketing at Nissin Foods USA, in a press release. "As fans look for new ways to enjoy their s’mores beyond the great outdoors, we couldn't resist joining the fun by transforming this classic flavor into a bold, unexpected experience."

Nissin Foods has been a trailblazer in the instant ramen world for over 65 years, always pushing the envelope with new flavors.

Remember the Breakfast and Everything Bagel with Cream Cheese Cup Noodles? Well, they’re back at it again with Campfire S’mores.

This latest creation shows their commitment to surprising consumers and crafting unique culinary adventures.

So, if you’re up for trying something totally out there, Cup Noodles Campfire S’mores is now available for just $1.18. Grab yours online or in-store at Walmart, but hurry—it's only available for a limited time. It might sound a little crazy, but who knows? It might just be the wackiest, tastiest treat of the summer.

The 2023 Best States for Camping report has been released. Two New England states make the Top 20. One comes in next-to-last.

Lawn Love is responsible for this year's rankings. They released their 2023’s Best States for Camping back in March, but we're in New England. March is decidedly not a great camping month. Unless you are among the most hardcore of outdoor enthusiasts. If you're a year-round camper here in New England, I tip my earflapped winter cap to you. You and Christopher Thomas Knight.

Lawn Love's study "compared the 50 states based on 25 metrics, such as campsite access, acreage, and trails. We also considered safety, supplies, camper satisfaction, and affordability." If you want to really dig into the data and sources, you can check out the Behind the Ranking section of their report. It's pretty in-depth and lays out how they ended up with their Top 50.

We'll get into the Top 20 of their Top 50 below, because the Top 20 does boast two states here in New England. Vermont is one, which isn't a surprise. The natural beauty across the Green Mountain State is unrivaled. Surprisingly, Connecticut also made the Top 20. Not an obvious choice, but I suppose it tracks given the criteria take into consideration.

Even more surprising, though, is Rhode Island. The Ocean State landed at No. 49 out of 50, with only lowly South Dakota keeping it out of the bottom spot. Again, you can dig into the full study and see all 50 states here. And while we're on the subject of camping and vacation season here in New England, be sure to check out my latest 12-Inch Poll and vote for your favorite summer vacation destination. In case you haven't heard, Massachusetts is a top spot for summer vacations nation wide.

Apparently you don't have to be in a costal state to do some dune camping!

Again, you can't go wrong with the natural beauty of the Green Mountain State.

Camping is even more fun when you're biking across the Hawkeye State!

Apparently Greene County is a PA camping hotspot. S'mores, anyone?

Forget everything you saw on the TV show: the Ozarks are beautiful for camping out.

The state has but one National Forest, but it's a beaut.

Waterfalls? Hiking? Rock climbing? Connecticut has it goin' on for campers!

Four words: The Grand Friggin' Canyon.

Imagine camping on Loretta Lynn's land? It would almost make traveling to TN worth it!

Lots of activities and amenities for those camping in the Buckeye State.

The state that's so popular among campers you might need an app to find a campsite that's free!

Just be mindful of those wildfires. Not just in NC but anywhere you plan on camping.

Virginia is for lovers. And campers. And paddleboat enthusiasts.

You can camp in a yurt in Michigan? Yes, you can camp in a yurt in Michigan!

Colorado is one of the most beautiful places I've ever visited, so it's no surprise to see it near the top of this list.

Taking this opportunity to remind you to respect the local wildlife when camping out, no matter the state.

Don't forget about the Forgotten Coast!

I'd be willing to bet camping in Texas nowadays isn't too far off what camping in Texas was like back in the day.

The state, mind you. Not Washington D.C. Too much concrete. Not great for camping.

From the redwood forests to the deserts to the coast, it's no surprise California tops this list.
