Cup Noodle sells new squid fork with its instant ramen
Nissin has launched a limited-edition squid fork for eating noodles, inspired by a viral photo, available for pre-order.
Yo, guess what? Nissin just turned a wild idea into reality. Back in April, they dropped a pic of noodles being eaten with a squid-shaped fork—it blew up online with **770,000 likes** on Twitter. Fans wanted it, and now Nissin's making it happen for real. That squid fork, or “ika fork,” is officially part of a limited-edition set you can buy. Talk about stepping up for the noodle lovers!
The set’s got nine goodies inside: **one squid fork**, two regular Cup Noodles, and a spread of flavors like Seafood, Curry, Cheese Curry, Chilli Tomato, and Miso. The fork, or should we call it a “squork,” is 8.1 inches long, heat-resistant up to 212°F, but heads up—it’s not dishwasher safe. Still, the detail on this thing is insane; it legit looks like a squid. Plus, it’s not just for noodles—you can wrap pasta, spear cakes, or scoop whatever you want. Practical and cool!
Here’s the catch: it’s limited edition. You can pre-order the set now on Nissin, Yodobashi, or Amazon Japan for **4,675 yen (about $29.71)**, with deliveries starting December 23. They’re capping it at five sets per customer, so don’t sleep on it. Imagine pulling out this fork at the table—it’s a conversation starter, for sure. Who knew eating noodles could be this extra?
