Otona means “adult” and is often used on packaging to describe certain food items that appeal to a more refined taste. This often means candy or snacks that are less sweet, or richer, or more complex than an average treat. Of course, these treats are enjoyed by everyone no matter your age!

RAMEN

1. Moyashi Miso Ramen
   Three kinds of miso are blended into the soup to give the rich and deep taste. Vegetables like moyashi (bean sprout), cabbage, and corn add a crunchiness.
2. Shoyu Ramen
   Topped with wakame seaweed and corns. The soup has a simple and light taste of shoyu and is rich in umami of chicken.
