O’Food Rose Spicy Carbonara Tteokbokki, Gluten-Free Korean Rice Cakes, Authentic Spicy Korean Street Food Snack, Ready to Eat, No MSG, No Corn Syrup (Pack of 1)

These are amazing and so easy to Prepare! They have a great soft and chewy texture. Perfect size.

UPDATE 2: The garlic flavor was decent. Sweeter than I expected.UPDATE: The sweet chili flavor 100% redeems the awful Rosé flavor. Sweet yet savory, just a hint of heat on the back end *channels Food Network* highly recommend. Realizing this is a flavor review. But product-wise? They're satisfyingly squishy when cooked, easy to prepare.I anticipated the Rose to be at least a little spicy, but it was mostly just grossly sweet. I have not tried the other flavors, and I'm pretty sad this is the one I opened first, I couldn't stomach more than a couple bites, it even smells too sweet.. The instructions were simple, so I don't think I did anything wrong. I hope the rest are at least a little better. Hopefully I'll be able to update the review.

I've eaten a lot of tteokboki and I do like this brand. Chewy, fresh rice cakes and a decent assortment of flavors - although my favorite from them is diablo which isn't in this assortment. These are only rice cakes and sauce, no fish cakes, so it can feel like there's something missing if you're used to having fish cakes with your tteokboki.They are easy and quick to make and I like to add things like cheese, eggs, cream, or sausages to make it more filling. Best eaten immediately as the rice cakes will absorb the sauce.Flavor ranking1. Sweet Chili - Surprised at how good this was. Only mildly spicy but it might be too sweet for some people. It has sort of an umanmi flavor and is delicious with cheese. My mouth is literally watering thinking about it.2. Original - basic gochujang sauce. Spicier than sweet chili but still not too spicy3. Garlic - like a garlic stir fry sauce4. BBQ - similar to a teriyaki sauce but had an odd flavor I associate with marmite. Looking at the ingredients list the flavor is from yeast extract. It's a little off putting.5. Rosé - bizarrely acidic. I've had Korean rosé tteokboki and ramen too and they didn't taste like this. Vaguely reminiscent of gone off yogurt. Would not recommend. Maybe mine was bad?

The tteokbokki itself comes out good but the flavors are hit or miss. The rose flavor isn’t great and is too sweet to taste like rose tteobokki from a restaurant. The garlic is pretty good.

This is my favorite tteokbokki! The rice cakes cook up deliciously chewy and the BBQ sauce flavor is a sweet mild flavor. I don't have a high tolerance of spicy food, so this allows me to add some hot sauce to MY spice level, if I choose. Great brand, easy to cook, and awesome flavor!! I always have this in my pantry.

I bought this in cup form before, it was just okay. This was so good everyone of my family of six including myself polished it off in one setting. I purchased two bags which is four small amounts. It was enough with serving Korean chips along side. Some also had black bean noodles. I would absolutely buy this again, kids loved it! Oh for some who might think it is maybe going to be to spicy, I found it warm on the back of my throat and tongue but not even enough to take a drink. I also find most things spicy or way too hot. I also added one slice of American sliced cheese to the pan while cooking, it has ideas on the back that you can do like add a hard boiled egg or onion. From bag to table in about five minutes is perfect for busy days.

I love tteokbokki (steamed rice cakes). Folks new to this should know that it is all about the glorious chewy texture, as the cakes themselves have no flavor. What you do once they are steamed though is up to you. Generally it is in a base of sweet and heat. Usually initial sweet taste with powerful punch of heat. Some varieties such as this Rose will be less hot. With any tteokbokki, it can be eaten as is, or can be topped with veg and/or proteins. I usually buy plain rice cakes and use a premade powder or sauce, and just eat it plain. I really eat this stuff when I want that special chewy texture. More of a craving thing than something I make when I am hungry. Other times, I will "doctor" it up with other flavorings) drops of soy, some garlic, mushroom powder, etc) and add-ins (cheese or egg, sometimes pork or chicken, occasional vegetable or a little broth). But ultimately it is the chewy texture I am going for.I generally prefer it prepared with less heat, but there are ways to make it less fiery. I love the heat and sweet. The Rose is more sweet than heat for sure, which I rather like. I can add heat back in. I like the different options for tteokbokki dishes. I love the texture and the versatility of the dish. I like this brand.

I absolutely love the Garlic flavor. I've purchased it a few times now. It has just enough spice and sweetness for me. My only qualm is that I wish this item was cheaper! The serving size is small, so I usually eat 2 packs at a sitting, making the price $7 a meal.I did try the Rose flavor and I extremely disliked it. It's sickly sweet and that's the dominating flavor. I do not recommend.Highly recommend the garlic!!!!
