Ingredients with an unresolved source

lecithin

Lecithin is usually plant-derived, but its source should be identified for a confident result.

contains soy

We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.

unspecified processing aid

The exact processing ingredient and its source are not listed.

riboflavin

Riboflavin can be produced by fermentation or other processes; the manufacturing source is not confirmed here.

hydrolysed

This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.

soy

We could not identify this ingredient reliably. Check the label spelling; this is a recognition gap, not evidence of animal origin.

flavourings

Unspecified flavourings may contain carriers or ingredients of animal origin.

source-dependent additives

This additive can be manufactured from plant or animal-derived raw materials unless its source is stated.

noodle

The source or production method of noodle can vary, so it is not always vegan.

Antioxidant

This ingredient name is in the source dictionary, but it is not yet covered by a verified assessment. This is not evidence of animal origin.

Additional evidence

vegan label

The source data identifies this product as vegan.

vegetarian label

Insufficient data

Nutri-Score is the grade reported in the source, not a score calculated or certified by us. NOVA describes processing. The Veganory indicator is a separate estimate; it does not determine whether a product is vegan.

Source values per 100 g or 100 ml, as supplied by the record. Confirm the basis on the package; these are not per-serving values.

How our indicator is calculated

When available, Nutri-Score A–E maps to 92, 74, 55, 34 or 16 points. With NOVA present, we combine 80% of those points with 20% of the processing indicator (100, 82, 52 or 16 for groups 1–4). Without NOVA we use the nutrition points alone. Without a usable Nutri-Score, we do not rate the product. This is a simplified comparison aid, not a validated health assessment.

Questions about this product

Is this answer valid for every Nongshim product?

No. This page covers Nongshim Shin Ramyun Noodle Gourmet Spicy, barcode 8801043150620. Other flavours, package versions or recipes sold in different countries may differ. Match the barcode and ingredient list on your package.

What still needs to be confirmed?

The source of lecithin, contains soy, unspecified processing aid, riboflavin, hydrolysed, soy, flavourings, source-dependent additives, noodle, Antioxidant needs clarification. Check the current package for a vegan certification or ask the manufacturer about these exact ingredients. A confidence label is not a certification.

Does “may contain” make it non-vegan?

A precautionary trace statement describes possible cross-contact, not an ingredient intentionally included in the recipe. We keep it separate from the recipe assessment. This distinction does not establish allergy safety.

Is the nutrition rating the same as the vegan result?

No. Vegan status concerns ingredient origin. Nutri-Score describes a nutrition profile, NOVA describes processing, and the Veganory score is our own combination of available indicators. A vegan result does not mean a food is nutritionally balanced.
