Releasing March 17! “Seven Premium Lots of Seaweed Clam Dashi Salt Ramen BIG”
Responding to the need for a quick yet thoroughly filling meal, this popular flavor has been scaled up in size. Sales will begin sequentially at 7-Eleven stores across Japan starting Tuesday, March 17.

- Release Date: Starting sequentially from March 17 (Tuesday)

March is a season of significant lifestyle changes in Japan, and many people tend to feel fatigued. The convenience of a meal that is ready just by pouring hot water, combined with a volume that leaves you full, will surely be a strong ally in a busy daily routine.
1.5 Times More Noodles! A Volume That Delivers Overwhelming Satisfaction
The most significant change in this BIG size version is the noodle volume, which has been increased to approximately 1.5 times the amount of the standard product. This volume is perfectly designed for those who find regular cup noodles a bit lacking.
It’s not just about the quantity; the balance of ingredients has also been meticulously calculated. A generous amount of “Seaweed” (Wakame), the “Clam” (Asari) that defines the broth, and “Chili pepper” to sharpen the taste have all been optimized to match the increased noodle portion. You can enjoy the harmony of ingredients and soup until the very last bite, ensuring lasting satisfaction.
The Secret Ingredient is Crab Shell? Premium Soup with Concentrated Clam Umami
The standout feature of this ramen is its deep salt-based soup, which concentrates the savory umami of clams. The moment you open the lid, the “scent of the ocean” (Iso no kaori) wafts out, powerfully stimulating your appetite.
To create this depth, clam extract is used abundantly not only in the actual clam pieces but also in the powdered soup and the separate seasoning packet. Furthermore, as a secret ingredient, finely crushed “Crab shell” (Kanigara) powder is added to further accentuate the clam flavor. A punch of garlic and a subtle hint of butter add richness, resulting in an “addictive taste” that you won’t forget once you’ve tried it.
Covering the Entire Cup! A Harmony of Seaweed Texture and Ocean Aroma
True to its name, “Lots of Seaweed,” the cup contains a surprising volume of seaweed. A few minutes after pouring the hot water, opening the lid reveals enough seaweed to completely cover the surface of the cup.
Since seaweed is rich in dietary fiber, it also provides a healthy sense of satisfaction. The crunchy texture of the seaweed acts as an accent, further enhancing the enjoyment of the meal.
Recommended for Breakfast Too! The Ultimate Balance You Won’t Get Tired Of
This cup of noodles, with its exquisite harmony of clam umami and seaweed aroma, possesses a simple deliciousness that you won’t get tired of even if eaten daily. While it’s great as a main lunch item, its refreshing quality also makes it perfect as a late-night snack during work or even as “Morning Ramen” (Asa-ramen).
A development representative from 7-Eleven Japan commented, “We want people going through this busy season to fill their stomachs with this ramen and recharge their energy for the afternoon.”
This new release is a symbol of Japan’s “Konbini” (convenience store) culture, offering a convenient yet rich flavor experience. If you spot the blue packaging at a 7-Eleven storefront, be sure to experience its deep flavor and satisfying volume for yourself.
