INTRODUCING TANGLE, A REVOLUTIONARY PROTEIN PASTA, TO THE U.S.

Samyang Foods Relaunches Their Instant Pasta Brand in the U.S., with New Look and Flavors

LOS ANGELES, June 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Samyang Foods – best known as the parent company of social media's most popular instant noodles, Buldak – is reintroducing a different kind of instant noodle to the U.S. – instant pasta! Initially launched in 2023, Tangle is making a triumphant return to American grocery stores this year, with a fresh new look and four delectable flavors.

Tangle is a revolutionary one-pot pasta (all-in-one pasta bowl)  that combines bold flavor with effortless convenience. Driven by a passion for creating delicious, hassle-free meals, it features bouncy noodles paired with distinctive, chef-inspired sauces. Each bowl is designed to offer a filling, high-quality meal that's hot and ready in 5 minutes. Beyond convenience, Tangle also packs nutritional value, offering 15 grams of protein and 4-7 grams of fiber per serving.

Tangle is available in four crave-worthy varieties tailored to American tastes:

• Tangle Garlic Oil: A nod to the Italian classic aglio e olio, this pasta features roasted garlic, premium Spanish olive oil and a dash of crushed red pepper for a subtle kick.
• Tangle Creamy Mushroom: A luxuriously creamy pasta, infused with deep umami from a blend of truffle, white mushrooms and shiitake mushrooms.
• Tangle Chunky Tomato: A hearty, comforting dish with generous chunks of tomato, elevated by robust notes of garlic and onion.
• Tangle Bulgogi Alfredo: A unique East-meets-West fusion, combining the sweet and savory essence of Korean bulgogi with rich, creamy Alfredo-style sauce and hints of bok choy, carrots, and onions.

More than a fast fix, Tangle offers a fresh take on everyday dining that is perfect for busy professionals, on-the-go students, or anyone looking for a flavorful upgrade to their routine. With modern flavors and a streamlined experience, Tangle invites consumers to rethink what pasta can be – delicious and effortless.

"Tangle represents our vision to blend quality and ease in a way that feels exciting and new," said Youngsik Shin, CEO of Samyang America. "It's not just about saving time – it's about bringing joy to every bite."

Tangle is currently available at Kroger and Asian grocery stores nationwide, as well as online via Amazon.com, and will be launching at BJ's Wholesale Club starting in July. All four flavor varieties come in single-serve bowls for $2.99 each, or multi-packs for $8.49 per 4-piece bundle.
