Naotaro Moriyama expresses guilty feelings of “dumping rice into ramen broth” in his new song titled “Taste of Guilt”

17.April.2017 | FOOD / MUSIC

Nissin Foods Holdings Co. Ltd released its new “Cup Noodle” item 『Bukkomi Meshi』 (dumping rice into ramen broth) on March 27th. So as to express the “sinfully delicious” flavor of this product, Naotaro Moriyama Japan’s famous “sweet voice” singer will release his new song “Tumi no Aji”(taste of guilt) on April 17th on this project’s special website. (http://www.bukkomimeshi.jp

 

Dumping rice into the remaining broth in your bowl of ramen after you have finished eating the noodles is NOT good manners. And eating more carbohydrates after eating a bowl of carbohydrates is a far cry from a healthy eating style. But doesn’t this sense of guilt while you’re eating your dumped-in-rice make this dish even more delicious?

 

『Bukkomi meshi』is a food which Nissin Foods earnestly and seriously developed to present this “guiltily delicious” flavor. Nissin Foods then requested Naotaro Moriyama to compose a song so as to broadcast 『Bukkomi Meshi』’s wonderful taste to people throughout the world. And the song which he completed is called “Taste of Guilt.”

 

This song talks about the feeling of a person who dumps rice into the remaining ramen broth in their bowl while at the same time talking about a universal theme, that is the psychological state of a person who continues to do something that they know they should not do. The song gets better every time you listen to it and leaves with you a deep aftertaste.

 

There are rumors that if you eat it as you listen to this song the taste becomes exquisite.

 

For all those who know how good “bukkomi meshi” is, let’s share our great desire and our great guilt as we devour our 『Bukkomi Meshi』!

“Taste of Guilt” lyrics

 

Into the remaining ramen broth I dump in some rice

My stomach wants to eat to the bottom of the bowl

I crossed over a line I should never have crossed

I’ve committed a commonplace sin

If it is excusable, if it is excusable

I want to eat my fill till the dawn of day with a smile on my face

Taste of guilt ×6
