Otaku (Japanese geeks) are usually too busy figurine-shopping to worry about what they eat for dinner. Most of them subsist on a strict diet of instant noodles—so much so that there's even an instant noodle specialty store in Akihabara called the Akiba Noodle. The shop sells over 400 kinds of instant ramen, and even has a little section where you can sit down and try them.
The Akiba Henshin Ramen series is an anime-themed instant ramen packet that changes flavors as you eat it. The soy sauce-flavored ramen gradually turns into pork broth ramen, and vice versa. This has been a highly popular sell in Akihabara since its release in November, partly because of the "transforming flavor" but mostly because it takes geeks one step closer to perfecting their fantasy of a house fully stocked with anime goods, and anime goods only.

The flavor transforms as you eat it only if you dump in the second flavor packet
