Abstract. This research aims to figure out the attitude and behavior of the consumers upon instant noodles, and to find out a relative value of affecting attributes. Data resources of this research have been obtained from 200 respondents in south of Jakarta. The research has applied statistics analysis covering the analysis of multi attribute model of Fishbein, subjective norms and theory of reasoned action. The result of fishbein attitude analysis is as follows; from the four attributes being evaluated, the most important one is taste variety of 2.57 scores, then easy to cook of 2.54 scores, ‘halal’ (free from pig substance) of 2.48 scores and easy to get the product of 2.46 scores. The smallest value is given to the packaging attribute of 1.58 scores. It has explained that the respondents have considered that the packaging attribute is not as important as the other attributes. Nevertheless its scoring is still within an important category. Refers to the four rands eing evaluated and refers to the ehavior model anal sis, ndomie has had positive ( > 0 ) category, it means that the consumers’ ehavior for this product is good or positive, so Indomie has gained the biggest value of 76.65 comparing with other brands.

  • Instant Noodles As Quotidian and Ubiquitous
    IntroDuction Instant Noodles as Quotidian and Ubiquitous Instant ramen noodles—tasty, convenient, cheap, shelf stable, and indus- trially produced (unlike “real” ramen noodles)—are consumed by huge numbers of people worldwide. Invented by Momofuku Ando in 1958, apparently to assist his war-torn Japanese compatriots, they have become so pervasive and commonplace that our friends often expressed surprise at our interest in them. “Why study them?” one asked. “My kids grew up on them.” Were they, in other words, significant enough to be of any particular interest, to be informative about anything of importance? The Noodle Narratives, written by three anthropologists—Deborah and Fred from the United States and Tatsuro from Japan—is our answer to this question and a demonstration that instant noodles are perhaps one of the most remarkable foods ever. The fact that instant noodles are so quotidian and ubiquitous is note- worthy. Their mass-produced ingredients are inexpensive as well as widely available and, for most of the world’s population, broadly acceptable: wheat, vegetable oil, and assorted flavorings, usually includ- ing salt, monosodium glutamate (MSG), a meat or chicken essence, sugar, and flavorings readily blended for local preferences. The World Instant Noodles Association (WINA), created to improve the quality of instant noodles and increase their consumption worldwide, estimates that 95.39 billion packages and cups of instant noodles were sold dur- ing 2010 across an impressive range of markets.1 Almost everyone eats or has eaten instant noodles. 1 Errington - 9780520276338.indd 1 21/05/13 9:33 PM 2 | Introduction Instant noodles are so inexpensive and widespread that they can be used as economic indices.

Just open the packet, pop the disc of noodles into boiling water, crack an egg in and a meal is ready in under three minutes. You can have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner and any time in between. The range of instant noodles these days is dizzying. You can get high-end Japanese brands which taste like yakisoba, or go local with laksa and lor mee flavours. Korean brands offer thicker, more chewy noodles, which taste heavenly with kimchi. Although instant noodles are a fast and cheap meal, it takes very little to transform them into something more substantial.
