How we've changed the 'instant ramen' game

Us vs Typical Instant Ramen

The Birth of Mike's Mighty Good

Mike's Mighty Good was born out of a passion for ramen and a commitment to quality. The founders, dissatisfied with the unhealthy options available, set out to create an instant ramen that didn’t compromise on flavor or ingredients. They believed that everyone deserves to enjoy a restaurant quality bowl of ramen made with great ingredients. Thus, the journey began to craft a product that would change the instant ramen landscape.

Clean Ingredients, Bold Flavors

What sets Mike's Mighty Good apart from typical instant ramen is their dedication to using clean, organic ingredients. We start with organic noodles made from scratch in our factory in Northern California. Typical instant ramen companies use cheap, overly-processed ingredients and flash fry their noodles in oil to cook them. Not Mike’s Mighty Good. Our products use organic ramen noodles made from North American Wheat and are steamed and not fried.
